Leventhal Forces a Fold

Adam Teasdale raised to 60,000 from the cutoff, and it folded around to Barry Leventhal who called from the big blind. Both players checked the {10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{K-Spades} flop, and Leventhal checked once more when the turn brought the {3-Hearts}.

Teasdale took a moment to think before betting 75,000, and Leventhal responded with an all-in check-raise for 575,000. Teasdale tanked for three full minutes, the rest of the table leaving their seats as he did, before finally letting his hand go.

Another All-In from Grimes

We just saw another hand involving a Terry Grimes all-in shove on the flop, this time against fellow big stack Sung Kim.

In that hand, Kim opened for 60,000 from under the gun and Grimes called from the cutoff. The flop then came {A-Spades}{2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, and Kim continued with a bet of 80,000. Grimes responded by raising all-in, and Kim stepped aside.

Two Pair for Kim

Terry Grimes raised to 65,000 from middle position and got three callers in Pete Rios (button), Sung Kim (small blind), and Aaron Overton (big blind).

The flop came {K-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} and it checked to Grimes who bet 250,000. Only Kim called. The turn was the {7-Clubs} and both checked. Then the river brought the {A-Hearts}, and both checked once more.

Grimes showed {K-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} for kings, while Kim had {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} for two pair to take the pot.

Barry Leventhal - 7th place
Barry Leventhal - 7th place

As Level 28 drew to a close, Barry Leventhal raised to 85,000 from middle position and only chip leader Terry Grimes called from the big blind. The flop came {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts}. Grimes checked, Leventhal bet 120,000, and Grimes called.

The turn brought the {4-Clubs} and another check from Grimes. Leventhal was the one pushing all in this time — for 540,000 total — and Grimes quickly called.

Leventhal had {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for for sevens and fours, but Grimes had {8-Spades}{4-Spades} for trips. The river was the {Q-Hearts}, and Leventhal hit the rail.

Big Bet from the Blinds

Aaron Overton opened for 70,000 from the cutoff, and it folded to Terry Grimes in the small blind who made a big reraise to 300,000. Wade Woelfel tossed away his cards from the big blind, Overton did the same, and Grimes showed his {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} before scooping the small pot.

Rios Reraise Forces Folds

Adam Teasdale opened for 90,000 from the hijack seat, then Terry Grimes reraised to 300,000 from a seat over. It folded to Pete Rios in the small blind who tanked for some time before pushing all in for 1,730,000.

Teasdale let his hand go, and Grimes thought a while before folding as well, saying "Assuming jacks are no good" as he did.

The turn then brought the {6-Hearts} and another check from Overton. This time Rios fired 165,000, and Overton let his hand go.

Aaron Overton Eliminated in 6th Place ($37,376)

Aaron Overton - 6th place
Aaron Overton - 6th place

The table folded around to Aaron Overton in the small blind who raised to 110,000, and Adam Teasdale came back with a reraise to 285,000 in response from the big blind. Overton then pushed all in for about 1.45 million, and Teasdale called with nearly an identical stack.

Overton: {10-Spades}{4-Spades}
Teasdale: {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}

Overton's hand was behind, but the {9-Spades}{2-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop gave him a flush draw to go with his live cards. Then the {10-Diamonds} fell on the turn to pair his ten, and it looked like Overton was going to win a large pot and survive.

But the river brought the {A-Hearts} to give Teasdale aces, and after a counting down of the stacks it was determined Teasdale had Overton barely covered.

Just five players remain.
