Chau Giang Chau Giang

Kings in the hole
Kings in the hole
The short stacked Chau Giang raised to 8,000 from the high-jack before the BB set him all in. Giang snap called with {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} and saw he had to get past {A-Spades} {8-Clubs} of his opponent.

He did that on a {J-Spades} {5-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {4-Clubs} board. Giang doubles but is still fairly low in 55,000.

No for Switzer

Phillip Yeh had just eliminated Brett Switzer. We're not sure when the chips went in but ultimately Yeh got lucky with {K-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} versus Switzer's {A-Hearts} {Q-Spades} on a {10-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {9-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} board.

Yeh on 200,000 as a result.

Easy Game...

At least it is for Mika Paasonen. He held {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} on a {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts} {J-Spades} flop, even better that his opponent was holding {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} and prepared to go all the way.

Paasonen is way over 100,000 now.

Dinner Tasted Good After This

We found out the details of how Ken Lennard rocketed up to the chip lead just before dinner. There were two all-ins before he looked down to see {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} in the hole while in the BB. Call! He was up against {K-Diamonds} {J-Spades} and {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}.

The board came {Q-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {J-Hearts} to bust his opponents and put him up to 300,000.

Tran Out.

Theo Tran has been knocked out after reraising all in with {K-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} and finding a surprising call from {J-Clubs} {10-Spades}. The board came {7-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} and an annoyed Tran said, "How can you call? I've been playing so tight..." before he hit the rail.

From Channing To Channout

I am not a happy bunny.
I am not a happy bunny.
Ben Bagamery raised preflop to 6,500 and Neil Channing moved all in behind him from the small blind. Bagamery made the call with {10-?} {10-?} and Channing flipped {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs}. A {6-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} board later and he was reduced to a short stack.

Soon after, he was all in again with {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds} against Bryan Paris' {A-Clubs} {8-Clubs} which binked an eight on the {8-Spades} {10-Spades} {2-Spades} {J-Clubs} {6-Hearts} board.
