Hand #24 - Marco Traniello Eliminated in 9th Place ($14,925)

Hand #24 - Jon Friedberg has the button in seat 7, Traniello raises from the cutoff to 50,000, Smith reraises from the big blind to 158,000, Traniello moves all in, and Smith asks for a chip count. It's an additional 111,000 to Smith (a total bet of 269,000), and he makes the call with {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. Traniello shows {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}, and he'll need to improve to stay alive in this race situation.

The flop comes {Q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}, and Smith retains the lead with his pocket pair. The turn card is the {9-Clubs}, and Traniello needs an ace or a king to survive.

The river card is the {7-Hearts}, and Smith takes the pot with his pocket jacks.

Marco Traniello is eliminated in ninth place, earning $14,925. The next player eliminated will receive $20,255.

Hand #25 - Thomas Savitsky Doubles Through Bruce Van Horn

There appears to be a mistake with the button, as it skipped seat 8. But we'll continue forward ...

Hand #25 - Gavin Smith has the button in seat 9, Savitsky moves all in under the gun for 40,000, Van Horn reraises to isolate, and everyone else folds. Van Horn shows {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}, while Savitsky has {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. Savitsky will need to improve to stay alive.

The flop comes {A-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Spades}, and Van Horn retains the lead. The turn card is the {6-Clubs}, and Savitsky needs a queen or a ten to survive.

The river card is the -- {10-Diamonds}! Savitsky spikes a higher pair on the river to double up in chips.

Hand #29 - Mike Spegal has the button in seat 4, Smith limps from early position for 16,000, Van Horn limps from the small blind, and Friedberg checks his option. The flop comes {7-Spades}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, and all three players check. The turn card is the {8-Clubs}, Van Horn bets 25,000, Friedberg calls, and Smith calls. The river card is the {3-Diamonds}, Van Horn checks, Friedberg bets 40,000, and Van Horn calls with {8-Spades}{5-Diamonds} for top pair. But Friedberg shows {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} to win the pot with two pair, sevens and eights.
