Duncan Bell Eliminates Adam Katz to Set Our Final Table

Adam Katz
Adam Katz
And this hand was a biggie. On the button Adam Katz raised to 62,000 and Duncan Bell called in the big blind. The flop came {A-Diamonds} {3-Spades} {Q-Clubs} and Bell fired out for 110,000, which Katz called. The {K-Clubs} fell on the turn, Bell bet 375,000 and after a few moments of deliberation Katz announced all in. "Call," Bell said, and the crowd gathered close to see the hands.

Bell had flopped two pair with {A-Hearts} {3-Clubs}, while Katz had turned a smaller two pair with K-Q. Katz need to see paint to have any chance of survival, and it was perhaps a final cruel blow that the card on the river was the {J-Spades}. Katz was eliminated in tenth place, and Bell will need a shovel to stuff all his chips into his bag as play concludes for the night.

We'll be posting final chip counts once the players and floor finish bagging them. Our final table begins at 2pm PDT -- if you stayed with us this long I'm sure you'll join us tomorrow afternoon. I mean...this afternoon.
