More For Sung...

Steve Sung raises to 250,000 from the button and Larry Sidebotham calls. The flop is {Q-Spades} {8-Spades} {3-Hearts}. Sidebotham checks and Sung bets 350,000. Sidebotham shows the {8-Hearts} and folds.

It's all one way traffic here.

Mullen Mullered! Nathan Mullen Out In 5th Place ($175,851)

Nathan Mullen - 5th place.
Nathan Mullen - 5th place.
Nathan Mullen moves all-in for 1,580,000. Steve Sung makes the call from the button. Larry Sidebotham asks if he calls and is eliminated, who would go out first. When told he's the shorter stack, he folds.

Mullen: {J-Clubs} {10-Clubs}
Sung: {A-Hearts} {7-Spades}

The flop is {K-Spades} {Q-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} and Nathan's fans erupt while the vocal friends of Sidebotham call for a ten. The turn {6-Clubs} changes nothing but the {10-Spades} appears on the river to knock out Mullen.

Sung has about 60% of the chips in play, can he be stopped?

The Honeymoon is Over...

Steve Sung raises once again only to find Pete Vilandos reraising all in for about 2.4 million. Sung quickly calls.

Sung: {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}
Vilandos: {9-Diamonds} {9-Spades}

The flop comes {Q-Clubs} {4-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} and immediately the Larry Sidebotham fanclub call for a jack, wanting their man to ladder again. The turn is the {J-Spades} and the Vilandos fans call for deuces while most of the others call for an ace, king, jack or ten.

The river is the {6-Spades} and Vilandos doubles to 4.8 million. Sung loses his first big pot in a while.

Push-Fold Poker

James Matz has been pushing a lot in the last few hands to get himself over the 3 million mark. The last hand saw him push against Steve Sung's button raise only for Pete Vilandos to call for the clock after a very short amount of time. The clock call was refused and after a couple more minutes, Sung folded anyway.
