Armstrong Wins Coin Flip

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

James Armstrong had Alain Rondeau all in and at risk preflop but Rondeau had a slight advantage.

Armstrong: {k-Clubs}{a-Clubs}
Rondeau: {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}

As the dealer swept out a flop of {4-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} Rondeau stood up anticipating the end of his tournament life. The turn {2-Diamonds} and river {8-Hearts} were of no assistance and Armstrong took the pot.

Four All Ins

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

"All in." A dealer calls out.

"All in."

"All in," a diffferent two dealers call out in quick succession.

There are five tables left and three of them have at least one player all in.

  • At one table, Jason Bigelow shoved all in and Hugo Theotol reshoved all in. Bigelow had {a-}{q-} and Theolot had {a-}{k-}. Bigelow couldn't catch up and was eliminated.
  • Xiao Zhou shoved all in from middle position at his table and no one called, so he took down the blinds and antes.
  • Andrew Molotchko went all in and had {a-Spades}{7-Diamonds} against {k-Spades}{10-Clubs}. The board ran out {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Molotchko earned the double up.
