Four-Way Stop

Here's a hand in which there was not an all in. Or a showdown.

Roland de Wolfe raised to 122,000 from under the gun, Torrey Reily called from middle position, Andrew Lichtenberger called from the small blind, and Bahador Ahmadi called from the big blind.

All four checked the {A-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop. The turn was the {7-Hearts}. Lichtenberger fired out 51,000, Ahmadi folded, de Wolfe called, then Reily reraised to 151,000, forcing all to fold.

Chip counts after the hand: Reily 420,000, de Wolfe 400,000, Ahmadi 270,000, and Lichtenberger 185,000.

Andrew Lichtenberger Doubles Up

From the cut off Antoine Berube min-raised to 20,000 and Andrew Lichtenberger moved all in from the button for 122,000. Berube made the call with {K-Hearts} {10-Hearts} but was in bad shape against the {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} of Lichtenberg.

The board came {A-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {8-Spades} allowing Lichtenberger to double up to 260,000. Berube drops to only 56,000.

Just two hands later, Berube manages to double up with {Q-Spades} {6-Diamonds} to bring him back up to 128,000.

Isra Out, Down to Three Tables

Roland Isra shoved all in with {K-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and was fighting for his tournament life against Garrett Beckman's pocket nines. The board brought no help to Isra, and he's out in 28th ($11,886). Beckmann now has 420,000.

They are now redrawing for new seats around the final three tables.

Philip Sousa raised from the button to 33,000, John Hoang called from the small blind and Kirill Gerasimov moved all in for 140,000 from the big blind. Sousa folded and Hoang made the call with {A-Clubs} {J-Clubs}. Gerasimov flipped over {10-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} and was racing for his tournament life.

The board kept Gerasimov's tens safe and he doubles up to 313,000.
