Take Some Chips to the Carwash

Michael “Carwash” Schneider was all in preflop for his last 31,000 holding {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} against the {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs} of Yusham Shi. It was a race, but not so much after the flop fell {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and paired Shi's ace.

Carwash rose from his seat in preparation to exit the tournament floor, but he paused when the {2-Diamonds} delivered him straight and flush options. Wouldn't you know it, the {5-Diamonds} spiked on the river to give Carwash the flush and the double.

"I was just stretching," Carwash said before retaking his seat.

Parker's Kings Cracked

A short-stacked player had just moved to Table 18 and moved all in for 25,000 from the hijack. The cutoff and button both folded, and then Jim Parker called from the small blind. The big got out of the way and the cards were turned up:

Parker: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

Parker was ahead and looking to dodge an ace, but he couldn't do it as there was one right on the {4-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{J-Hearts} flop. Parker looked displeased as the dealer ran out the {8-Clubs} turn and {2-Clubs} river. His cracked kings left him with just 45,000.

Aruther Can't Crack Aces

Andrew Arthur three-bet shoved all in preflop with {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and Brian Lee snapped him off with {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}. The {k-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Spades} flop gave Arthur outs to win, the {7-Spades} on the turn gave him more outs to win and a few outs to chop, but the {4-Diamonds} bricked in the river.

Lee now sits with over 200,000 chips.

Fleming Busts

Eric Fleming open-shoved for his last 20,000 or so in late position, and Hien Nguyen made the call.

Fleming: {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Nguyen: {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

Fleming took the lead when the flop fell {10-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{j-Hearts}, and remained in the lead when the {j-Spades} turned, but the {3-Hearts} spiked on the river to eliminate him.

Nguyen, who started the day as one of the chip leaders, now has over 300,000 chips.

Gottumukkala Gets Got

After Colt Sanders opened for 9,000 under the gun, action folded around to Srikanth Gottumukkala in the big blind and he moved all in for 31,500 more. Sanders made the call and put his opponent in dire straits.

Gottumukkala: {Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Sanders: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

"Jack one time," Gottumukkala pleaded, but it was not meant to be as the board ran out {7-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and he was sent to the rail.
