Pfeifer Becomes New Leader

With a raise in front of him, Peter Mavro moved all in from the small blind. The big blind thought for a bit before folding and Randy Pfeifer made the call in middle position.

Mavro: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Pfeifer: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The board ran out a dry {8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs} to eliminate Mavro. Pfeifer scooped the pot and the chip lead with it. He now has 170,000.

Ware Climbing

We picked up the action on a flop of {7-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} and Bangalore Subbarao facing a bet or raise from Ken Ware of 4,300. He made the call.

The turn was the {10-Diamonds} and this time Subbarao check-called 10,000 worth of chips. The river was the {6-Hearts} and Subbarao checked again. This time Ware moved all in for about 55,000 and Subbarao mucked his cards.

Ashby Forced to Check Down

Len Ashby raised from early position to 4,000 and was called by a player in position. The board ran out {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{9-Diamonds} and both players checked all three streets. Ashby tabled {j-}{j-} which was enough to beat the {5-}{5-} of his opponent and give him some early momentum.

Pesky Nines

Level 12 : 700/1,400, 200 ante

A player had doubled up Michael Iacovone when his Tens couldn't hold against his opponents Nines. This time it was the other way around for the same player. He held {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} fighting for his tournament life against the {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} of Brian Lemke.

The board ran out {8-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and he hit the rail. Lemke, on the other hand, now has 116,000.

Borrero Trending Downward

Miguel "Zeek" Borrero had plenty of momentum coming in to today's play but the early goings have not been kind to him. We found this hand on a flop of {6-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} with a 10,000 pot already. Borrero bet out 5,300 and Donovan Darland moved all in for just over 26,000.

Borrero tanked for a while and then quietly let his hand go, shrinking his stack to a little over 30,000. Darland has chipped up to just over 40,000.

Kevin Saul Eliminated

As we noted earlier Kevin Saul was seated at the table of death and for lack of a better phrase, it was the death of him. He had become desperately short-stacked and was left with only a blind or two on his last hand. He committed the last of his chips without looking at his cards and found six callers.

Saul held {10-} {2-} and an opponent flopped top pair, top kicker and eliminated Saul.
