Patrik Antonius Eliminated

Patrik Antonius - Eliminated
Patrik Antonius - Eliminated
Stud:

Patrik Antonius was just eliminated when he got mixed up in a hand with Daniel Negreanu. Both men showed a {4-?} on third street and got into a raising war that resulted in all of Antonius's chips in the middle. The players showed:

Negreanu: ({K-Spades}) ({K-Hearts}) {4-Spades}
Antonius: ({10-Diamonds}) ({10-Clubs}) {4-Clubs}

Negreanu caught a third king on fourth street and when all the cards were out it his hand was still best. Antonius made his way towards the exit while Negreanu stacked his chips, which now tower just over the 260,000 mark.

Aces Up for Abe

Stud:

Kenny Tran: (X-X) {8-Spades} {5-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {A-Hearts} (X)

Abe Mosseri: (X-X) {A-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {8-Hearts} (X)

Kenny Tran completed on third street, Abe Mosseri raised and Tran made the call. On fourth Mosseri led out and Tran called. Fifth street brought another bet from Mosseri, a raise from Tran, a reraise from Mosseri and a call from Tran. Tran showed the high board on sixth and check-called a bet from Mosseri. Same story on seventh.

Mosseri turned up {A-Spades} {J-Spades} {8-Diamonds} for aces up and Tran mucked.

Sixth street: Adams bet, Cloutier folded, Tomko called.

Lindgren On the Rise

Hold'em:

Action folded around to Erick Lindgren on the button and he raised. Ralph Perry called from the big blind and they took a flop.

The flop came {10-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {9-Hearts}. Lindgren bet and Perry called. The turn brought the {A-Spades}. Both players checked. When the {6-Hearts} hit the river, Lindgren fired again and Perry called. Lindgren showed {K-Hearts} {10-Hearts} and Perry mucked.

Lindgren climbed to around 350,000 on the hand and Perry slipped to just under 170,000.

David Bach Eliminates Jan Von Halle

Hold'em:

Bach raised on the button before the flop and Von Halle called in the big blind. After the {6-Spades} {3-Hearts} {2-Hearts} flop Von Halle checked and Bach bet out. Von Halle raised for his last few remaining chips and Bach made the call, with his {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds} leading Von Halle's {K-Spades} {3-Spades}. And when the board ran out {5-Clubs} {2-Spades} Von Halle was out and Bach picked up a pot that boosted his stack up to 300,000.
