Rabtsov's Penalty

Kirill Rabtsov received a one-hand penalty for slamming his fists on the table causing everyone's chips to fall over just before the break. When he returned from the break, a player raised and then Rabtsov called for the floor because he wanted to play his hand. He then attempted to move all in, but the rest of the table wanted a ruling and called for the floor. The floor came over and ruled that Rabtsov's hand was dead and that he couldn't play it. Rabtsov argued for a minute, but then gave up on it.

Rabtsov Doubles

Kirill Rabtsov has doubled up with {A-Spades} {5-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} against Martin Corduz' {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {10-Spades} {9-Clubs} after the board came {A-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {3-Spades} {J-Clubs}. Rabtsov made two pair and had a live five to take both high and low and double up to around 35,000.

Filippi Gets Quarter

From middle position, Amnon Filippi raised to 5,500 and then action folded around the table to Matt Lefkowitz. He reraised to 23,000 and Filippi called. The flop came down {A-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {6-Clubs} and the two players got all-in.

Showdown
Filippi: {A-Hearts} {9-Spades} {8-Spades} {2-Hearts}
Lefkowtiz: {A-Clubs} {A-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds}

The turn was the {J-Clubs} and the river the {K-Spades}. Filippi took only a quarter of the pot with Lefkowitz scooping three-quarters and moving up to 47,000.

Richey Rich

Brett Richey has just knocked out Andreas Foulias and George Danzer. All the money went in preflop according to Richard Ashby.

Richey: {A-?} {4-?} {5-?} {7-?}
Foulias: {A-?} {2-?} {3-?} {10-?}
Danzer: {A-?} {5-?} {8-?} {Q-?}

The board was {10-?} {3-?} {7-?} {J-?} {7-?} and Richey scooped the lot.

Krueger Suffers a New Nightmare

On a {6-Clubs} {5-Spades} {2-Diamonds} board, Andy Bloch bet 8,000 and David John reraised all-in for 18,800 and Quentin Krueger pushed all-in for 23,800. Bloch called and they were on their backs (the cards - the players stayed seated).

Bloch: {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {6-Spades} {3-Clubs}
John: {A-Spades} {3-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {6-Clubs}
Krueger: {A-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {4-Hearts}

The turn was the {10-Hearts} and the river was the {K-Spades}.

Bloch and John chopped the low and Bloch's kings up was good enough to scoop the high. Kruger missed his low wrap draw and had nothing but A-4 for the low which meant he was eliminated.

Reslock's Hand is Not a Lock

As all the chips went in on a {K-Clubs} {7-Spades} {3-Hearts} board, Chris Reslock said, "I think you're in trouble," flipping {A-Spades} {2-Clubs} {3-Spades} {7-Clubs} but looked a little less happy when Kirill Rabtsov flipped {K-Spades} {K-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}. The turn was the {3-Clubs} and now Reslock needed to make the low or hit the case {3-Diamonds}. But the river was the case {K-Diamonds} making the Russian quads and Reslock was knocked out as a result.

Clements Doubles, Elezra Out

Eli -  Busto
Eli - Busto
On a flop of {3-Spades} {J-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}, Scott Clements and Eli Elezra both check, Senovio Ramirez III bets 8,500 and Clements check-raises the pot to 47,500 with about 10,000 behind. Eli Elezra calls all-in for 9,100 and Ramirez reraises Clements all-in, the latter quickly calling.

Clements: {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {4-Clubs}
Elezra: {K-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {4-Hearts}
Ramirez: {A-Clubs} {4-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}

The turn is the {5-Spades} and Ramirez' draw is huge now but the river is the {J-Diamonds} and Clements doubles to 140,000. Elezra is out and Ramirez is left with 75,000.
