Moseley Pushes Out Weaver

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

A middle-position raise to 30,000 earned three callers, including Jonathan Moseley in the cutoff and Ray Weaver on the button. The flop came {8-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts}, and when it checked to Moseley he led for 60,000. Weaver then raised to 125,000, prompting the other two players in the hand to bail.

Moseley sat in contemplation for about a minute, then announced he was all in. The chips were eventually counted out to show his push was for more than 500,000, and Weaver subsequently sat quietly for about two minutes thinking it over.

Finally Weaver folded, showing his hand as he did… {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}! Moseley began stacking the chips, smiling broadly while offering nothing concrete in esponse to Weaver's questions about his hand.

Cary Marshall Eliminated in 26th Place ($7,961)

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante
Cary Marshall - 26th place
Cary Marshall - 26th place

Cary Marshall opened with a raise to 35,000 from under the gun, then John Bowman reraised to 80,000 from middle position. It folded back around to Todd Osborne in the big blind who called the three-bet, then Marshall called as well.

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, and Osborne led with a bet of 100,000. Marshall then pushed all in for more than 250,000, and after Bowman stepped aside, Osborne thought for a short while before calling Marshall's shove.

Osborne had {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for an overpair while Marshall held {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs} for a couple of live cards and a flush draw. The turn was the {K-Hearts} and river the {4-Spades}, and Marshall wished the others good luck before heading to the cashier's desk.

Matthew Hankins Eliminated in 27th Place ($7,961)

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

Dane Cass was just eliminated in 28th place after running {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades} into Ray Weaver's {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} and failing to improve. And before the three-table redraw could happen, Matthew Hankins was eliminated in 27th place on the neighboring table.

Hankins had first lost a significant percentage of his small stack with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} versus Larry Gurney's {6-Spades}{6-Hearts} when the {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} board failed to improve Hankins's hand.

Soon after that one, Hankins was all in with {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} versus James Kinney's {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}. The community cards brought five spades — {Q-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Spades}{J-Spades} — meaning the spade in Kinney's hand gave him the flush and the best hand, knocking out Hankins.

There will be a brief pause while the final 26 players redraw for new seats.

Tobal's Ladies

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

Larry Gurney and Fernando Tobal were heads up on a board of {4-Clubs}{k-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. Gurney fired out a bet, and Tobal moved all in for a total of 143,000. Gurney tanked, assembled enough chips to make the call, and then slid them forward.

Tobal: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Gurney: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}

Tobal was in great shape, and he held when the river brought the {6-Hearts}. The Durham native doubled to 440,000 chips, while Gurney is on life support with 75,000.

Carver and Bowman Play a 600K Pot

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

Charles Carver opened to 32,000 in middle position, John Bowman called on the button, and both blinds released. The flop fell {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}{7-Hearts}, Carver continued for 55,000, and Bowman called.

The turn was the {9-Diamonds}, Carver led out again - this time for 120,000 - and Bowman again called.

The river was the {3-Clubs}, and Carver emptied the chamber, firing 125,000. Bowman instantly called. Carver turned over {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}, and Bowman flipped over {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}.

"Chop it up," Bowman said.
