Erica Schoenberg

A player is all in from the button with {A-Hearts}{10-Spades} against Erica Schoenberg's {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs} in the big blind. The board comes {Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{5-Spades}, and Schoenberg flops a pair of queens to win the pot and bust her opponent.

Erica Schoenberg is now up to about 180,000 in chips.

John Kranyak Increases His Chip Lead

John Kranyak raises from early position to 15,500, the player on the button moves all in for about 105,000, and Sorel Mizzi goes into the tank in the big blind. He finally calls for a clock -- on himself. The other players laugh, but he says, "No, seriously." A floorperson is called over and begins the countdown. Mizzi eventually folds, and tells the floorperson, "Thank you."

Kranyak calls the all-in bet and shows {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}, and the player on the button shows {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}. Mizzi claims that he folded A-K as well.

The board comes {8-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, and Kranyak's pocket tens hold up to win the pot, eliminating his opponent. John Kranyak now has about 400,000 in chips.

Edward Moncada Eliminated in 75th Place ($7,205)

Ed Moncada limps from the button for 6,000, the Jeff Kimber raises from the big blind to 40,000, Moncada moves all in, and Kimber quickly calls with {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}. Moncada shows {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, and he'll need to improve to stay alive.

The board comes 8-5-2-7-10, and Kimber's pocket queens hold up to win the pot, increasing his stack to 276,000.

Edward Moncada is eliminated in 75th place, earning $7,205.

Kathy Liebert Takes a Hit

Kathy Liebert raises from middle position to 16,000, the player on the button moves all in for 35,500, and Liebert calls with {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}. Her opponent shows {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, and it's a race situation.

The board comes {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Spades}{K-Spades}, and neither player has a spade in their hand, so the pocket fours hold up. Kathy Liebert drops down to about 47,000 in chips.
