Monster Pot Results in Klodnicki's Elimination

Chris Klodnicki
Chris Klodnicki

We didn't catch the action on this monster pot until the turn when all the money went in. With a board reading {8-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{J-Spades}{4-Spades}, Chris Klodnicki was all in holding {J-Diamonds}{K-Spades} against the {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} of La Sengphet. With the river card still to come, Sengphet's supports began calling for a deuce. Sure enough, the harmless {2-Diamonds} peeled off on the river and Klodnicki, who was clearly frustrated, made his exit from the WSOP-Circuit National Championship.

To the River We Go

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Just before the break Josh Evans and Adam Hui got all of the money in on the turn with a board reading {6-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. With 235,000 in the pot, Evans' tournament life was at stake. Lucky for him, he held the nuts with {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}. However, Hui held {J-Clubs}{J-Spades} for a redraw. The table was tense as the dealer burned and revealed the {7-Diamonds}. Evans survived the river to double while Hui dropped to 64,000.

Bye Bye Brown

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Traci Brown
Traci Brown

James Anderson entered the pot from middle position with a raise to 7,000 only to have Traci Brown move all in from the small blind for just her last 9,000. Anderson made the call to put the one of the remaining females at risk.

Brown: {A-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Anderson: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}

The {A-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{A-Spades} flop gave Brown additional outs to chop, and when the {3-Clubs} landed on the turn, there would be nine cards that she would hope would peel on the river to keep her alive.

Unfortunately, the {4-Spades} completed the board and Brown was bumped to the rail as Anderson moves to 95,000 in chips.

Sengphet Always Has It

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Drazen Ilich opened to 7,200 from early position and La Sengphet made the call next to act to see a {5-Spades}{6-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop fall.

Ilich continued with an 8,200-chip bet which Sengphet called as the {8-Clubs} on the turn went check, check as the dealer dropped the {8-Diamonds} on the river.

Ilich again checked before Sengphet pushed out a bet of 20,700 to force a fold from Ilich as he uttered, "Always have it huh?"

Sengphet is now up to 315,000 in chips.

Ilich Pressures Moore

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Charles "Woody" Moore raised to 9,000 under the gun and action folded all the way around to Drazen Ilich in the small blind. He opted to reraise to 28,500, which Moore called after spending a minute in the tank. When the flop came down {7-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, Ilich led out for 40,000 and Moore simply folded. The former player is up to 220,000 while the latter dropped to 95,000.
