Cheung Cut Short

Cheung: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Liu: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

The {4-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop was clean, and so too was the {k-Clubs} on the turn, but the {q-Spades} spiked on the river, eliminating Cheung from the tournament.

The queens held as the board came {4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{5-Spades}, tripling Barton to around 150,000 chips. Yamada dropped to around 155,000, while Jones basically broke even.

Cheung Doubles

Todd Collins opened to 7,500 in late position, Robert Cheung moved all in for 18,200 on the button, and Collins went into the tank.

Cheung joked about how bad Collins' hand must be, and Collins admitted it wasn't too stellar before calling.

Cheung: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Collins: {a-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

The tens held as the board came {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{6-Spades}{6-Clubs}, doubling Cheung back over 40,000 chips.

Patience Doesn't Pay?

After being patient all day, Pete Mavro finally went on a rush, during his 17,700-chip stack into over 100,000. Unfortunately, in a no-limit texas hold'em tournament, one cooler can spell the end.

And thus, Mavro is out.

Facing an open from Jesse Rockowitz and a call from a third player, Mavro three-bet to 18,500. Rockowitz four-bet to 37,000, and the action folded back to Mavro, who moved all in.

Rockowitz snapped it off with {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}, dominating Mavro's {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}.

The board ran out {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{6-Spades}{7-Clubs}, and Mavro was eliminated.

Rockowitz is back above 200,000 chips.
