Marco Johnson - 19th place
Marco Johnson - 19th place
Mike Eise raised under the gun to 70,000, only to have Marco Johnson move all in from the big blind for 400,000. Eise made the call and the cards were tabled.

Johnson: {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Eise: {K-Hearts}{J-Spades}

Johnson hit the flop when it fell {Q-Spades}{4-Spades}{4-Hearts}, and when the {4-Diamonds} fell on the turn it seemed Johnson was set for a double up.

However, the {K-Clubs} was dealt on the river and Johnson was eliminated from the tournament by Eise' rivered full house.

Arthur Evans opened on the button to 60,000 with Mike Zulker making the call from the big blind.

The flop fell down {J-Spades}{K-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and Zulker checked to see an 80,000-chip bet fall from Evans. Zulker put in a raise, but before it could be cut down and counted, Evans moved all in with Zulker calling just as quickly.

Evans: {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Zulker: {K-Clubs}{9-Spades}

The turn fell the {A-Hearts} to give Evans outs to a straight, but when the {3-Diamonds} landed on the river he was on his way to the rail and a $18,688 pay day.

Johnson Rivers Double

Joe Simmons opened from the cutoff to 60,000 only to have Marco Johnson ship it from the small blind for 194,000.

The big blind passed and Simmons made the call to be in great shape with {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} against Johnson's {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {9-Spades}{5-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs} to see Johnson river a double up to 470,000 as Simmons slips to 530,000 and change.

Louie Cracked, Then Doubles

Aces CRACKED!
Aces CRACKED!
Fred Louie just lived one of poker's nightmares - getting your aces cracked!

Louie called the all in of Jake Solis holding {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} to be well ahead of Solis' {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}.

But, when the board ran out {J-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, Solis doubled through to 500,000 and Solis slipped to below 100,000.

On the following hand, he managed to find a double holding {A-Spades}{8-Diamonds} against Mickey Neuberger's {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} to see him back over the 200,000 mark.

Joe Simmons opened to 55,000 from middle position before Jim Coyle pushed his last 245,000 into the pot.

With the action on Mike Eise in the small blind, he made the call, which prompted a fold from Simmons.

Coyle: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}
Eise: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}

The flop of {4-Spades}{A-Spades}{K-Clubs} would see Eise surge into the lead, and when the turn and river fell the {10-Spades} and {5-Hearts}, Coyle was the next player to fall.

With that pot, Eise climbs to over 1,320,000 in chips - four times what he started the day with just over an hour ago.
