Hand #10

Hand #10 - Craig Crivello has the button in seat 1, and he moves all in for 225,000, winning the blinds and antes.

Hand #9 - Matt Vengrin Eliminated in 9th Place ($43,378)

Hand #9 - Bart Hanson has the button in seat 9, Jacob raises under the gun to 150,000, Vengrin moves all in from the cutoff for 680,000, and Jacob thinks for two minutes before calling with {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}. Vengrin leads preflop with {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}, and he'll need his hand to hold up to stay alive.

The flop comes {Q-Spades}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs}, and Jacob takes the lead with a pair of queens. Vengrin needs an ace or something runner-runner to survive.

The turn card is the {4-Diamonds}, the river card is the {9-Clubs}, and Alex Jacob takes the pot.

Matt Vengrin is eliminated in 9th place, earning $43,378. The next player eliminated will earn $55,246 for eighth place.

Hand #8 - Andreas Krause Doubles Through Matt Vengrin

Hand #8 - Matt Vengrin has the button in seat 8, Krause moves all in for 390,000, Vengrin moves all in over the top from the button, and everyone else folds. Vengrin shows {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}, and Krause holds {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}. Krause will need to improve to stay alive.

The flop comes {8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, and Krause needs an ace, a queen, or a runner-runner straight. The turn card is the {4-Spades}, and Krause picks up his straight draw, needing an ace, a queen, or a five.

The river card is the {5-Hearts}, and Krause spikes his five-high straight on the river to stay alive and double up in chips.

Hand #7 - Bart Hanson Doubles Through Craig Crivello

Hand #7 - Ciarin O'Leary has the button in seat 7, Crivello raises under the gun to 125,000, and Hanson calls from the big blind. Hanson then moves all in dark for 50,000. The flop comes {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{9-Hearts}, and Crivello calls the all-in dark bet with {A-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} (ace high). Hanson shows {J-Spades}{2-Spades} (gut-shot straight draw), and he'll need to improve to survive.

The turn card is the {8-Spades}, and Hanson picks up a flush draw, giving him plenty of additional outs, needing a deuce, a ten, or a spade.

The river card is the {A-Spades}, and Bart Hanson wins the pot with a flush, doubling up in chips.
