Three Eliminations in Three Straight Hands; Bubble Bursts and Final Table Set

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

The final table has been set after three quick hands at our final two tables.

Anthony Meli busted to Erim Gulec when Meli put himself at risk moving all-in preflop. Gulec made the call and a massive cooler unfolded.

Gulec: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Meli: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

The board ran out {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{5-Spades}{10-Clubs}{j-Hearts}. Meli had flopped trip acces and looked to be in control. The river had different ideas filling Gulec up with a full house and Meli hit the rail just beofre the bubble.

The very next hand Jean Michel Mazingarbe moved all-in preflop for 18,000 and Fabio Luongo made the call.

Luongo: {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Mazingarbe: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The dealer rapped the table and slid out a {8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{9-Clubs} board giving Luongo the hand and the knockout.

Just as that hand finished and players now in the money, Domenic Durante was eliminated scoring the min-cash of $750.

J.P. Piquette Wins with Jacks

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

J.P Piquette got all in against William Blais with {j-}{j-}. Blais held {2-}{2-} and needed help to stay in the tournament.

The board didn't bring the help Blais was looking for as it ran out {8-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{k-Hearts} and Blais was eliminated. It was another huge all in with Blais putting almost 30 big blind in preflop. Piquette is now sitting comfortably at just under 60 big blinds with one elimination until the money.

Sammy Chao Eliminated by Fabio Luongo

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Fabio Luongo opened to 6,500 from the button and Sammy Chao shoved over-top for around 25,000.

Before the dealer could count Chao's stack Luongo tossed in calling chips.

Chao: {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}
Luongo: {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

The dealer issued a board of [jh4cahd2c] and Luongo's flopped ace was good enough to score the elimination.

Big Fold For Monarque; Bellizzi Chips Up

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Pascal Monarque
Pascal Monarque

Pascal Monarque opens to 5,000 and Michael Bellizzi re-pops him to 11,300. Action folds back around to Monarque who four-bets to 25,000.

Bellizzi takes a moment before announcing all-in and slides his remaining 98,000 into the middle.

Monarque goes deep into the tank for several minutes before calling the clock on himself. As his minute ticked down he makes the fold showing the table {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}. Bellizzi obliges showing his {q-Clubs}{q-Spades} reassuring Monarque he made a great fold.

Sebastien Proulx Doubles Through Sammy Chao

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Sebastien Proulx
Sebastien Proulx

Sebastien Proulx earned a huge double up when he called Sammy Chao's all in.

The flop was {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{7-Spades} and Chao and Proulx got all in. The action was so fast, but it seemed like Chao shoved all in and Proulx snap-called. Proulx turned over {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} and Chao audibly sighed. He turned over {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}.

The turn was the {j-Diamonds} and the river was the {j-Spades}, which didn't change a thing. Proulx earned a double up with his 54,000 chip stack.
