Flop:
Naalden bet out and both players called; onwards.
Turn:
Naalden bet out again and this time Hang decided he didn't like the look of it and folded, leaving himself on 195,000. O'Dell called though.
River:
Naalden bet out one more time and O'Dell called, but mucked to Naalden's
.Naalden's up over one million, while O'Dell is down to just 110,000.
O'Double Up
Naalden bet out on the
flop but Hang raised. O'Dell called all in, Naalden folded, and they were on their backs.Hang:
O'Dell:
Turn:
River:
Mr. O'Dell more than doubled to 180,000.
Since then, he's managed to nudge his stack up above the 200,000 mark after pushing Alex Keating off a pot with a bet on the river of a
board.
Nothing-Over-Nothing Cooler
flop and Keating bet out on the turn; Hang called. They went back to checking on the river, at which point Keating announced, "I have nothing." "I probably have a bigger nothing," replied Hang, and indeed he did -- he turned over 
to beat Keating's

Jameson Painter Eliminated in 8th Place ($21,819)
Knocking out Rep Porter with some timely pocket aces actually helped to drag him out of the 90,000 hole he'd found himself in, but he was back down to just 55,000 after an encounter with Alex Keating.
Keating raised under the gun and Painter called out of the big blind to see a
flop, on which Painter check-raised. He bet out on the 
turn and then check-called a bet form Keating on the river -- and mucked to Keating's 
full house.A couple hands later and Marc Naalden raised under the gun and Painter reraised from the cutoff; call. Naalden checked the
flop and Painter bet; Naalden raised and Painter called all in.Painter:
Naalden: that classic under-the-gun raiser
Turn:
River:
to make Naalden a straight for good measure."Go back in the tournament!" shouted one of Painter's disappointed railers, as the media mused upon the terrible irony of Painter's orange-clad railers (that's the Pumpkin color) inadvertently wearing the Dutch colors for the gent who'd just knocked their boy out.

Rep Porter Eliminated in 9th Place ($19,594)
board -- he'd raised from the button with and Rep Porter called; Porter bet out on the flop and again on the turn and then both players checked the river. Neither had a flush, but Cowley made a bigger two pair on the river to beat Porter's .Porter managed to lose another big hand to Tommy Hang, leaving him on just 46,000, and was in some trouble.
So when Porter found
under the gun he raised, and then called a reraise from Jameson Painter one seat down.Porter got his last in on the
flop... but Painter was only too happy to call with his pocket , and with not enough help from the 
turn or river, we are down to eight.
Cowboys for Cowley
Cowley bet out on every street of the
board and Qutami called all the way down. Cowley flipped and Quttami just mucked.
One Step Back, Two Steps Forward for Naalden

in the small blind and big blind Tommy Hang stayed in until the river of the 
board where he mucked to Naalden.

for the flopped straight.Johns: reaching for the sky on 220,000
O'Dell: crashing down to earth on 120,000
