Bary Double Barrels

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The action folded around to Matthew Bary on the button who raised to 4,000 and Brett Apter defended the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{q-Hearts} and Apter check-called a bet of 6,000.

The {3-Hearts} fell on the turn and Apter checked again before Bary put in a bet of 14,000 which was enough for Apter to surrender the pot.

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The action folded around to Hieu Dang in the small blind who completed and Trung Tran checked his option.

Bazeley Flops Two Pair

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The action folded around to Jake Bazeley in the hijack who raised to 4,500. The cutoff, button and small blind all folded before Adam Hendrix three-bet to 18,000 in the big blind and Bazeley made the call.

The dealer spread a flop of {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and both players checked to see the {8-Diamonds} on the turn. Hendrix put in a bet of 13,000 and after only a couple seconds Bazeley made the call.

The {9-Spades} fell on the river and they both checked. Bazeley tabled {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a flopped two pair while Hendrix only showed the {k-Hearts} before putting his cards in the muck.

Newcombe Gets There to Eliminate Singh

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Melisa Singh
Melisa Singh

Melisa Singh raised under-the-gun to 5,000, the button called and Matt Newcombe called in the small blind before the big blind defended.

The dealer fanned a flop of {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and both Newcombe and the big blind checked to Singh who moved all-in for 33,000. The button quickly folded and Newcombe gave it some thought before putting in a stack of 1,000 chips to call and the big blind instantly folded.

Melisa Singh: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Matt Newcombe:{10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}

Singh had flopped top pair top kicker against Newcombe's straight and flush draw and the {2-Diamonds} on the turn completed his flush. Unfortunately for Singh she couldn't catch the fourth diamond on the river when the {5-Clubs} came and she was eliminated from the tournament.

Keathley Flushes Out Her Opponent

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

On a flop of {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and a sizable pot already brewed after a couple of raises, Tiffany Keathley called her opponents all-in for roughly 50,000 in chips and both hands were tabled.

Opponent: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Tiffany Keathley: {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

Keathley was against an overpair but had plenty of outs with an open-ended straight draw and a flush draw and the turn {7-Spades} gave her even more outs as she picked up a pair. The river was the {9-Clubs} completing her flush and eliminating her opponent from the tournament.

Cervantes' Tear Continues

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Only a few hands after Salvador Cervantes won a massive three-way pot when he made kings full against two's full on a {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Clubs} board giving him a monster stack he found himself involved in another huge hand.

The flop read {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and the player first to act checked while the middle player raised to 4,000, Cervantes called and the first player raised to 17,000. The middle player opted to move his entire stack of roughly 50,000 across the line and Cervantes called quickly while the other player instantly mucked and the two hands were tabled.

Opponent: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Salvador Cervantes: {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}

Cervantes was in great shape with his set of fives and his opponent couldn't catch his two outter as the board completed with the {3-Spades} on the turn and the {a-Diamonds} on the river, giving Cervantes a full house and adding to his already enormous stack.
