Massey Scores a KO

Level 19 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Action folded to Aaron Massey who popped it up to 12,000 from the button. The player in the big blind went into the tank and that's when Massey began talking. Although Massey admitted afterward that he was trying to talk him into folding, his opponent moved all in for not too much more.

Massey let out a sigh followed by a laugh, looked at the clock to make sure he did his math right, and then announced a call. Massey showed {Q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and was live against his opponent's {A-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}.

The board came down {2-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts} and Massey's pair of queens ended up as the best hand. His opponent solemnly walked toward the payout desk while Massey stacked chips. He's now sitting around 265,000.

Maletic Sends Pate Packing

Level 19 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Maletic: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
Pate: {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}

The turn and river brought the {8-Clubs} and the {5-Clubs}, allowing Maletic's kings to hold and sending Pate packing. Maletic is now sitting on 360,000 in chips.

Engel Pushes Out Short

Level 19 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Ari Engel opened to 11,500 from the button and the small blind folded. John Short peered down at his cards from the big blind and cut out a three-bet to 30,000.

Action was back on Engel and he eventually opted to move out a four-bet, making it 55,500 to go.

"Is that the only way you can win?" asked Short.

Short ended up giving up his hand and awarding Engel the pot. Engel is now sitting on roughly 200,000 in chips.

Bubble Has Burst! We're In The Money!

Level 19 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

The bubble has burst here on the first hand of hand for hand play. As tables around the room were being instructed to hold up after this hand, action was brewing at another table.

After a series of raises, Greg McCurry moved the rest of his stack in against Emmit Humphrey on a board that read {J-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Clubs}. Humphrey called it off and showed {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for top pair. McCurry, however, was leading with {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades} for top-top.

The turn was the {7-Diamonds}, keeping McCurry in the lead. The river, however, brought the {10-Clubs}, securing the highest two pair for Humphrey and allowing him to win the hand. A visibly upset McCurry quickly exited the tournament area while Humphrey stacked his new chips. He's now sitting on about 415,000.

Cartwright Busts Wallace

Level 18 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Norman McKeldin opened to 8,500 from UTG+1. It folded around to Patricia Pate who called from the button. Kyle Cartwright flat called from the small blind and Chris Wallace in the big blind three-bet all in for about 51,000. McKeldin thought for a minute before calling and Pate mucked her cards.

Cartwright riffled chips for a moment before announcing that he was all in over the top. McKeldin shook his head and threw his hand into the middle. The cards were turned up.

Cartwright : {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}
Wallace: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}

Cartwright flopped a set on the {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop and never relinquished his lead through the {9-Clubs} turn and the {A-Clubs} river. He's now sitting on right around 295,000 in chips.
