"Party in my pants!"

Mimi Roeder
Mimi Roeder

Nick Jivkov raised to 15,000 and then Mimi Roeder reraised all in from the big blind for 71,000. Jivkov made the call, but his {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} was dominated by the {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} for Roeder.

The board ran out {J-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Spades}{10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and Roeder won the hand to double up. "Party in my pants!" she yelled out after winning. She's back to about 155,000 while Jivkov dropped to 510,000.

Roppolo in the Lead

Perry Chou open-shoved his last ~80,000 into the middle with {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}. He almost made it all the way around the table, but Joseph Roppolo woke up with {K-Spades} {K-Clubs} in the blinds and made the quick call to put Chou at risk.

There was nothing to sweat on board, and Roppolo's pair holds up to earn him the knockout. He now appears to be the chip leader with more than 700,000 chips towering in front of him.

Chip Counts

Elliott Finds a Double

John Elliott got himself all in for his last 76,000 before the flop with {10-Spades} {10-Hearts}. When Adam Sporinsky looked him up with {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}, Elliott seemed content to flip for double or nothing.

It would be double.

The board ran out {7-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {6-Spades} {3-Clubs} {9-Hearts}, and Elliott shrugged and said, "Well, I guess I'm sticking around for a bit." He is indeed, back over 160,000. Sporinsky is left with 65,000 after granting that double up.

Double or Nothing for Liebert

Peter Panos came into the pot limping for 10,000 and John Elliott followed suit in the next seat over. The action passed around to Kathy Liebert, and she ho-hum announced an all in for 72,500 total. Next door in the big blind, Richard Rockwood announced the cold call, and that was good enough to fold Panos and Elliott without too much drama. Cards on their backs, lady and gent:

Liebert: {10-Diamonds} {10-Hearts}
Rockwood: {K-Hearts} {7-Hearts} (obviously aware of the power of the king-axe)

The money would have gotten in on the flop anyways as the dealer rolled out {10-Spades} {K-Clubs} {7-Clubs} to hit both players but keep Liebert in a commanding lead. "I saw the king and the seven first, she said, sitting back down. The turn {9-Spades} and river {8-Spades} kept her set safe, and she's found a double up to about 180,000.
