Cloutier Isn't Over the Hill

T.J. Cloutier raised to 20,000 from middle position and Mike Hill min-raised to 32,000 from the button. Cloutier called and the two saw a flop of {K-Clubs}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}.

Cloutier bet and Hill called all in for his last 16,000. Cloutier showed {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts} but was still behind the {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs} of Hill. The {J-Diamonds} on the turn didn't change a thing and neither did the {6-Diamonds} on the river. Hill doubled to 120,000 through Cloutier, who dropped to around 260,000.

Monroe Doubles Through Walsingham

Brian Walsingham was on the button and put in a raise to 18,000. Jerry Monroe then moved all in for 68,000 more from the small blind. After the big blind folded, Walsingham made the call.

Walsingham: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}
Monroe: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

Monroe was looking to dodge and ace or spades and did just that as the board ran out {8-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}. Walsingham dropped to 100,000 after the hand while Monroe doubled to 188,000.

John Land Eliminated in 24th Place ($3,589)

Action folded to John Land in the small blind and he pushed all in for his last 85,000 with {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}. Yair Alon was in the big blind and woke up with {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}. He made the call and the flop came down {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}, giving both a pair of kings.

Alon's kicker was better until the {10-Diamonds} hit the turn. Suddenly Land had two pair and Alon needed an ace or jack to win the pot. Just like that, the dealer put up the {J-Clubs}. Alon took down the pot and increased his stack to 310,000 while Land was eliminated from the tournament in 24th place.

Mike Flowers Eliminated in 23rd Place ($3,589)

Mike Flowers picked up {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} and was all in for right around 160,000. Mike Hill called with his {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} and it was off to the races for a pot worth over 300,000.

The race didn't last long as the {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop gave Hill a pair of aces. The {9-Spades} on the turn was not the queen Flowers was looking for and neither was the {2-Diamonds} river. Hill, who has been on a heater as of late, took down the pot and increased his stack to a little over 340,000. Flowers was eliminated from the tournament in 23rd place and will take home $3,589 for his efforts.

Brian Walsingham Eliminated in 22nd Place ($3,589); James Namken in 21st Place ($4,160)

Will "Monkey" Souther was under the gun and raised to 17,000. Brian Walsingham then moved all in for around 50,000 in middle position and Souther reluctantly called.

Souther: {Q-Spades}{9-Spades}
Walsingham: {K-Spades}{J-Spades}

"At least my spades are alive," Souther joked. Although they weren't, the {3-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop put him firmly in the lead. The {3-Spades} turn and {J-Hearts} river changed nothing and Souther won the pot, sending Walsingham home in 22nd place.

At the same time at another table, James Namken was eliminated. We didn't catch the details, but he becomes the 21st place finisher.

Christopher Sullivan Eliminated in 20th Place ($4,160)

Christopher Sullivan moved all in from early position for his last 50,000 with {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}. Action folded all the way around to Bob Talbot in the small blind who looked down at {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} and made the call. The board ran out {4-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{A-Clubs} and Talbot won the pot, bringing his stack to over 400,000. Meanwhile, Sullivan's day came to an end and he was eliminated in 20th place.

Lutes Hits the Turn to Double

In an unraised pot, two players saw a flop of {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}{2-Spades}. After a series of bets and raises, Travis Lutes' all in shove was called by Garrett Jones.

Lutes: {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Jones: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

Jones was ahead with a set but Lutes had both straight and flush draws. The {7-Spades} gave Lutes the flush and left Jones drawing to a paired board. Unfortunatley for him, it was the {A-Clubs} and Lutes doubled to over 360,000. Jones dropped to around 180,000.
