Gill Fades Hearts on the River

Level 7 : 200/400, 0 ante

With 4,000 in the pot and a board reading {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{2-Spades}, Tam Truong bet 3,000 only to have Oliver Gill raise all in for 10,700 total. Truong thought for a bit before spiking in a call and the cards were turned up.

Gill: {9-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{6-Hearts}
Truong: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{j-Spades}{6-Spades}

Gill held a nine-high straight, while Truong was drawing to a heart flush. The dealer burned one last time and put out the {5-Spades}. Gill dodged a heart and doubled on the hand.

Clements Hits the Rail

Level 7 : 200/400, 0 ante

The action folded around to the player on the button who bet out 800. Scott Clements was on the small blind and raised it up to 2,800. The player on the button then raised enough to put Clements all in. He called.

Clements: {k-Hearts}{10-Spades}{j-Spades}{9-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{k-Spades}{q-Hearts}

Clements was able to flop top pair on the {6-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop, but his opponents spiked top two pair. Clements was unable to improve as the board ran out the {2-Spades} and {5-Hearts} to see him hit the rail half way through the second last level of play.

Marcus Cracks Aces to Eliminate Clark

Level 7 : 200/400, 0 ante

The action escaped us, but we do known that Kevin Clark got his stack all in on a {7-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop against Van Marcus.

Marcus: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
Clark: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

Clark held pocket aces, but they we're no good as Marcus had flopped a set. Neither the {K-Clubs} turn nor {4-Diamonds} river helped Clark, and he saw his Event #3 journey come to an end in Level 7.

Clements Doubles

Level 7 : 200/400, 0 ante

Scott Clements waited until the very last moment to register into today’s event.

We just caught a hand were Australian Poker Hall of Famer Jason Gray bet out 1,200 from under the gun plus one. Clements then moved all in for 4,500 in chips as the decision folded back around to Gray. He called.

Gray: {A-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Clements: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}

The board ran out {9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{9-Clubs} to see Gray almost get there with his flush and straight draws on the turn. Clements happily took down the pot with top two pair to see him move up to 9,600 in chips.
