Ms. Ruby Hits the Rail

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

We've recently noticed a vacancy in the tournament field as Ruby Timlin's seat is now empty. Timlin has been known to roll over the sit-n-go's here at the WSOP Circuit Harrah's Tunica as the week has gone on. Curious to read more about Timlin's exploits? Check out WSOP Media Coordinator Alan Fowler's blog on the lady they call Ms. Ruby.

Todd's Tens Take Smith

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Nancy Todd opened to 2,600 from under the gun and it folded around to Mark "Pegasus" Smith who called from the big blind.

Smith checked in the dark and the flop was {2-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades}. Todd bet 3,000 only to have Smith come over the top for 8,000. Todd stuck around.

The turn was the {7-Hearts} but before it fell Smith checked in the dark once more. Todd checked behind this time and the {J-Hearts} hit fifth street. Both checked once again.

"Threes," said Smith, showing {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. Todd, however, tabled {A-Hearts}{10-Spades} for a pair of tens and took down the pot.

MacKinnon Can't Catch a Break

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We got to the table to see a player all in and at risk for his last 11,000 against DJ MacKinnon. MacKinnon held pocket eights but was ultimately crushed by his opponent's {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}.

The board came down {2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and McKinnon was forced to ship a majority of his stack to the other side of the table, leaving himself with roughly 7,000 behind.
