Hellmuth Takes From Sylvia

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Joining the action on a {2-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {8-Spades} flop, Phil Hellmuth bet 25,000 out of the small blind and Jesse Sylvia called from under the gun. They checked through the {A-Spades} on the turn and the {10-Diamonds} appeared on the river. Hellmuth checked and Sylvia bet 43,000, which the "Poker Brat" called after some consideration.

Sylvia turned over {10-Hearts} {8-Hearts} for two pair tens and eights, Hellmuth had that beat with {A-Clubs} {8-Clubs}.

Winter: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Egan got it in good and was looking to hold, which is just what he did after the board ran out {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{k-Diamonds}.

Phil Hellmuth raised to 27,000 from early position, and Richard Lyndaker reraised all in for 22,000 from the button. Everyone else folded, and Lyndaker showed the {A-Spades}{10-Hearts} to Hellmuth's {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}.

Lyndaker hit two pair on the {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{10-Spades} flop, and then he held from there after the {7-Clubs} turn and {8-Diamonds} river completed the board.

Charania Bows Out in 14th Place

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Mohsin Charania
Mohsin Charania

Action folded around to Mike Leah in the small blind and he asked Mohsin Charania, who was in the big, how much he had behind. The answer was 18,000, and Leah smiled before just limping. Charania splashed in all of his chips, and Leah called.

"No need to induce me Mike," Charania joked.

Leah: {j-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}
Charania: {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

"You have the best of it," Charania pointed out. Indeed, Leah's jack high was out in front, but Charania was drawing to two live cards. Unfortunately for him, he wouldn't find them as the board ran out a clean {2-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}. Leah stood to shake hands, and afterwards Charania took his leave from the 2014 WSOP APAC.

Lyndaker Pays Off Sylvia

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

In a three-way limped pot to the {9-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} flop, Phil Hellmuth bet 16,000 out of the small blind and then folded when Jonathan Duhamel raised to 45,000, Greg Merson mucked his cards as well.

One hand later, Richard Lyndaker raised from under the gun and Jesse Sylvia defended his big blind. We missed the action on the {10-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} flop but Sylvia bet 28,000 on the {2-Hearts} turn. Lyndaker called and did so as well when Sylvia made it 66,000 to go after the {2-Clubs} river. Sylvia showed {J-Spades} {10-Spades} and Lyndaker smashed his cards into the muck.

Higgs Wins Some; Charania Crippled

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Mohsin Charania open-shoved from the button and got called by Michael Egan, Sam Khouiss folded in the big blind.

Egan: {8-Hearts} {8-Clubs}
Charania: {J-Clubs} {9-Clubs}

Despite two over cards and a flush draw, Charania could not get there on a board of {4-Clubs} {10-Spades} {A-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} and was left with less than four big blinds.

Shortly after, Sam Higgs won a pot off Mike Leah. [Removed:17] had raised to 23,000 from under the gun and Leah as well as Higgs in the big blind made the call. They checked down the {7-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {5-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {7-Spades} board until the river, where Higgs bet 45,000. Yan folded but Leah called to muck when shown {9-Clubs} {10-Clubs}.
