Edler, Shorr, Bill Childs Out; Deeb on the Rise

While Bill Edler was being eliminated at one table in 38th place ($17,272), Shaun Deeb was busy knocking out two more players in rapid succession.

In the first, Shannon Shorr was all in before the flop for 140,000 with {K-Clubs}{J-Hearts} against Deeb's {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}. The board ran out {5-Spades}{10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{10-Hearts}, and Shorr hit the rail in 37th ($17,272).

Soon after, Bill Childs raised to 15,000 from late position, Deeb reraised to 50,000 from the small blind, Childs shoved all in for 160,000, and Deeb called.

Deeb showed {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} and Childs {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. The board went {10-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{8-Spades}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, and Childs is out in 36th ($19,453).

Deeb now has 900,000.

Pan Felled by Feldman's Hammer

Peter Feldman
Peter Feldman
At the start of Level 17, Qinghai Pan had attempted to raise from under the gun, but hadn't accounted for the change in the blinds. Thus the chips he had put out for the raise ended up constituting a call. It folded around to Peter Feldman in the small blind who completed, and the big blind checked.

The flop came {2-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{10-Spades}, and the betting between Feldman and Pan resulted in the latter being all in with {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}. Feldman's hand? You guessed it. The mighty {2-Spades}{7-Spades}.

The turn was the {A-Spades} and the river the {6-Hearts}, and Pan is out in 35th place, earning $19,453. Feldman is up over 600,000 now.

Keeton Takes One from Seth

Sean Keeton raised to 21,000 from the cutoff, and Anirudh "BKiCe" Seth called from the big blind. The flop came {K-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. Seth checked, Keeton bet 40,000, and Seth called. Both checked the {A-Clubs} on the turn. The river brought the {5-Spades}. This time Seth bet 94,000, and Keeton made the call.

Seth showed {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for two pair, but Keeton's two pair was better -- he had {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}. Seth is now down to 65,000, while Keeton is up to 560,000.

Dicken Done in 32nd

Darrell Dicken was just now all in before the flop with pocket fives and was up against Aurelien Guiglini's {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}.

The flop brought a king, but three spades, and Dicken had the {5-Spades} and thus harbored additional hopes that a flush might come. Neither the turn nor river brought a spade or five, though, and Dicken is out in 32nd ($19,453).
