Sengphet Can't Hit the Broad Side of a Barnhart

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

From under the gun, Sam Barnhart raised to 40,000. La Sengphet reraised from the big blind and then Barnhart moved all in. Sengphet quickly called. The reraise amount was unknown as it wasn't announced with the action progressing so quickly. Barnhart tabled the {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} and Sengphet the {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}.

The flop, turn and river were run out {10-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{5-Hearts} and Barnhart doubled up. He was all in for 314,000 and now has 638,000 in chips. That's good enough to give him the chip lead as he overtakes Sengphet with the double through her. She was left with about 375,000 in chips.

Turn Shove for Evans

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Josh Evans opened from first to act for 26,000 with Sam Barnhart making the call from the button to see a {6-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop fall.

Both players checked to see the {5-Spades} land on the turn and Evans tapping the table once again. Barnhart pushed out a bet of 30,000 only to have Evans check-raise all in.

Barnhart deliberated for a few minutes before eventually releasing his hand.

Sengphet Over Anderson

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

From the cutoff seat, James Anderson raised to 23,000. La Sengphet made the call from the big blind and the flop came down monotone with the {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts} falling. Sengphet checked and Anderson bet 29,000. Sengphet made the call.

The turn card was the {5-Hearts} to put another heart on board. Both players opted to check and see the {10-Diamonds} pair the board on the river for free. Sengphet checked and Anderson fired 66,000. After a minute or so in the tank, Sengphet made the call. We couldn't see Anderson's holding, but the tournament announcer mentioned that both players had flopped a flush. Sengphet held the nut variety though with the {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts} and won the hand to increase her chip lead.

Barnhart Wins with River Bet

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Action folded to Sam Barnhart in the small blind and he completed the bet. James Anderson raised to 28,000 from the big blind and Barnhart made the call. The two players saw the flop come down {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades} and Barnhart checked. Anderson bet 32,000 and Barnhart called.

Fourth street was the {J-Diamonds} and both players checked to witness the {K-Clubs} fall on fifth street. Barnhart bet out 60,000 and Anderson released his hand into the muck.

Charles Moore Eliminated in 6th Place ($55,000)

Charles "Woody" Moore - 6th Place
Charles "Woody" Moore - 6th Place

After opening with an under the gun raise, Charles Moore would inevitably commit what remained of his chips once James Anderson upped the ante to have "Woody" all in for his tournament life.

Moore: {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Anderson: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

In a classic race situation, the {J-Clubs}{10-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop would be a safe one for Anderson as it gave Moore no additional outs.

The turn of the {4-Clubs} however saw Moore's chance of survival survival lessen, and when the {4-Spades} completed the board, he was bumped to the rail in 6th place for a $55,000 payday.

Evans Straightened Out

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

On a {8-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop we found Jonathan Poche leading out with a bet of 18,000 which was called by Josh Evans.

Both players checked the {2-Spades} on the turn, and when the {9-Clubs} landed on the river, Poche cut out a 37,000-chip bet. Evans made the call, but would be forced to muck at the sight of Poche's {Q-}{10-} for a straight.

Moore Folds to Poche's Shove

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

From the hijack seat, Charles "Woody" Moore raised to 40,000 on the first hand back from the break. Jonathan Poche was in the next spot in the cutoff and reraised all in for 203,000. La Sengphet tanked in the small blind, but eventually folded. When action got back to Moore, he flipped a coin in the air. After it landed on the felt, he didn't look too pleased with the result and thought for another 20 seconds or so before tossing his hand into the muck.
