Weideman, Hanna, Enright All OUT

Sometimes exits feel a little like buses -- you wait ages for one, and then three come all at once.

Thomas Weideman busted to Hoyt Corkins -- Weideman made trip eights in stud, but Corkins made a straight to knock him out.

------

Also out is Salim Hanna, fallen victim to Daniel Mowczan.

------

And our third casualty is Barbara Enright, the only woman ever to make the $10,000 NLHE Main Event final table. She went in with {7-?} {7-?} {8-?} against Tom Chambers' {9-?} {9-?} {J-?} -- neither player improved any, and she hit the rail.

Flush Gives Graham the Pot

Stud-8:

Matthew Graham has just won a big pot, failing to notice he'd made a flush with {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades}{A-Spades} and {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{7-Spades} in the hole against Jack Ward's {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts} behind.

After his opponent corrected his verbal errors, Ward, who initially thought he'd won the hand, dropped his head towards the felt in disappointment.

Nevertheless, Graham scooped the pot, whilst Ward dropped down to the 35-40,000 region.

Berry Johnston Gone

Berry Johnston
Berry Johnston
Stud-8:

Former world champion Berry Johnston is out, his tournament life on the line in seven-card stud-8, with Daniel Mowczan and John Racener fighting it out for the side pot.

Mowczan = {K-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Johnston = {Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{2-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
Racener = {4-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

After Racener had called a bet on the penultimate street, he bet 6,000 on the end only to be duly called by Mowczan.

Mowczan nearly fell back in his chair as Racener revealed {3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} in the hole, the youngster taking the pot with his trip threes.

Meanwhile, Mowczan and Johnston mucked, the latter leaving the table in 30th place.

Joy for Reslock

Omaha-8:

After being down to the felt just moments ago, Ming Reslock is now flying high with circa 50,000.

Before reaching the half-century mark though, she initially jumped up to the 32,000 mark courtesy of Hoyt Corkins, or, more accurately, the mysterious poker gods.

All in, Reslock had aces up against Corkins' flush and was in need of divine assistance -- which she duly received when the ace on the river (to quote the title of a certain publication) gave her a full house for the win.
