Miscikowski Gone

Level 15 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

D.J. Blanchard raised to 4,500 and David Miscikowski reraised all in for 30,500. After a long time in the tank, Miscikowski called the clock on Blanchard. With under ten seconds left, Blanchard made the call and showed the {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}. Miscikowski held a dominated {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{4-Spades}{6-Clubs}{K-Spades} and Miscikowski hit the rail.

Dwyte Pilgrim, Ladies and Gentlemen

Level 15 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Gregory Brooks raised to 4,500 from the button, and Dwyte Pilgrim defended his big blind.

The two men took a flop of {2-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}, and it went check-check to the {3-Spades} turn. Pilgrim led out for 8,000 now, and Brooks called. The {10-Spades} dropped on fifth street, and Pigrim bet again -- 17,000 this time. Brooks spent some time in the think tank before making the call, and Pilgrim tabled {4-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} for the nuts.

Pilgrim is up to 240,000 now, and that's a whole lot of trouble for the remaining field.

Pilgrim Splashes the Pot in a Big Way

Level 15 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

From the hijack seat, Dwyte Pilgrim raised to 5,000. Joe Parker called on the button and Miller Dao three-bet from the big blind to 17,800. As soon as Dao's three-bet hit the felt in front of him, Pilgrim snap-jammed all in by literally shoving all of his chips into the middle, splashing them across the table. There's a good spirit in this tournament from everyone and there was a bit of a laugh coming from the other players. Parker folded and then after a minute of thinking, Parker did the same. Pilgrim showed only a queen and began the long process of stacking his chips back up.

A Swing and a Miscikowski

Level 15 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

When we walked up to the table, Kyle Bowker and David Miscikowski were mixed up in a preflop raising war that left Bowker all in for 93,700 total. When Miscikowski snap-called the shove with {Q-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}, Bowker turned over {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts} to race for his tournament life.

Bowker flopped a flush draw on the {7-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {4-Hearts}, and the turn {8-Hearts} drilled his hand. Miscikowski was drawing dead to the {6-Clubs} river, and Bowker has doubled right back to where he started from.

Miscikowski is left with just about 25,000 lonely chips.

Woodall Burned Down

Level 15 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Tim West raised to 5,000 and Richard Woodall moved all in for 22,000. West made the call, claiming to have forgotten about the short stack behind him. He tabled the {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts} and Woodall the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}.

The flop, turn and river ran out {K-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and West made two pair, kings and sevens, to send Woodall out the door.

Negreanu Straightened Out by Peters

Level 15 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Daniel Negreanu and David Peters saw the flop come down {Q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}. Negreanu checked and Peters bet 11,000. Negreanu attempted to raise to 18,500, thinking Peters only bet 8,000, but was informed he had to make it 22,000. He did that and Peters made the call.

The turn brought the {2-Hearts} and both players checked. The river completed the board with the {A-Spades} and Negreanu bet 26,500. Peters made the call with the {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} for a straight. Negreanu mucked, saying he had just king high and dropped back to about 150,000.

Chip Counts

Tran Busts Burkholder

Daniel Negreanu raised to 4,400 from the cutoff seat after play folded over to him. A few spots over from that, Steven Burkholder sat in the small blind. He reraised all in for 49,000. Kwinsee Tran was in the big blind and requested a count on Burkholder's shove amount. The dealer broke it down and informed him. Tran then made the call and Negreanu folded.

Tran: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Burkholder: {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Upon seeing the hands, negreanu piped up and said, "Well, I had him beat," pointing to Burkholder's hand with a smile.

Tran flopped the joint when it came {Q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, giving him a full house. Burkholder was packing up when the dealer dealt the {3-Spades} on the turn and the {9-Diamonds} on the river.

David Peters turned to Burkholder and said, "Look, you made the straight!" Although he meant it completely innocently, it may not have been the best thing to say to someone who was already out the door having been flopped nearly stone dead.

"Sick," said Burkholder as he made his way to the exit.

Tran scooped the chips and moved to 275,000 in chips. That's looks like it's good enough for the top stack in the room.

Dao Drops One to West

From the hijack seat, Miller Dao raised to 5,100 and Tim West defended with a call out of the big blind to see the flop come down {J-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}. Neither player wanted to put any more money in just yet and both checked.

The turn brought the {5-Diamonds} and West fired out 9,500. Dao paused for a moment and then made the call. After he did so, the dealer burned and dealt the {3-Clubs} on the river. West tossed out a bet of 30,000. Dao paused for a minute again, but this time he folded.
