Grey Doubles through Grinder

Grey: {j-} {10-} / {10-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {j-Diamonds} {9-Spades} / (X)
Mizrachi: {k-Hearts} {k-Clubs} / {5-Spades} {7-Spades} {a-Spades} {6-Spades} / (X)

We got to David Grey's table just as he and Michael Mizrachi were putting in enough bets for Grey to get all in. Mizrachi opened two kings in the hole.

"No good," said Grey. He showed two pair, jacks and tens.

"Really?" said Mizrachi.

"Oh it will be good," Grey replied. "It's just not good yet."

Mizrachi caught a fourth spade on sixth street to go along with his draw at a bigger two pair or trips, but bricked out the river. Grey didn't have to sweat it. He collected the pot to double up to about 37,000.

Mizrachi is down to 165,000.

Singer Eliminated

David Singer before elimination

David Singer saw the last of his chips in the middle of the pot on fifth street against Max Pescatori.

Singer: {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts} / {K-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Pescatori: {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs} / {9-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

With Singer needing to catch a king or a heart to stay alive his cards would fall the {Q-Diamonds} and {10-Diamonds} while Pescatori found the {K-Spades} and {Q-Spades} to remain in the lead and knock Singer to the rail.

Chris Ferguson Eliminated

Ferguson: {10-Clubs} {8-Clubs} / {6-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {q-Hearts} / (X)
Negreanu: {j-Hearts} {7-Hearts} / {9-Diamonds} {j-Spades} {10-Spades} {6-Spades} / (X)

With less than a full bet left in his stack, Chris Ferguson caught the bring-in. He tossed all of his chips in and was called by two players. By fifth street, Ferguson was heads-up with Daniel Negreanu. Negreanu wound up rivering two pair, leaving Ferguson drawing at either a seven or a jack to stay alive. He bricked his draw and headed for the exit.

Negreanu is up to 66,000.

Guoga Gone

Tony G
Tony G

Unfortunately Tony G is the next victim to hit the rail after getting all his chips into the pot on fifth street against Eric Buchman.

Guoga: {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} / {10-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Buchman: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds} / {7-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{3-Spades}

Guoga picked up the {8-Diamonds} on sixth street to take the lead, but Buchman also improved with the {7-Diamonds} giving him a bigger two pair.

Buchman blanked out with the {5-Spades} on seventh, but Guoga also failed to improve as he could only squeeze out the {9-Diamonds} as he made his way to the rail.

Singer Barely Survives

David Singer was all in on fourth street with four to a staight, {8-Hearts} {6-Hearts} / {7-Hearts} {9-Clubs}. He was called by a flush draw, {2-Spades} {q-Spades} / {a-Spades} {9-Spades}. Singer went runner-runner-runner to catch a full house, easily defeating his opponent's pair of queens. The potgaves Singer about 12,000 chips.

Kessler Chainsaw'd

Allen Kessler
Allen Kessler

Allen Kessler completed for 2,000 and Alessio Isaia two-bet to 4,000.

Once the action folded back to Kessler he tossed in his last 1,600 in chips and the cards were tabled with each player's board running out as follows.

Kessler: {9-Clubs}{7-Spades} / {7-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{K-Spades} / (X)
Isaia: {10-Hearts}{A-Hearts} / {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}{4-Spades}{10-Diamonds} / (X)

Isaia turned over his {2-Clubs} and Kessler would need any King, seven or club to stay alive.

Unfortunately for 'Chainsaw', he could only find the {9-Diamonds} on seventh to see him eliminated from the tournament.

Isildur1 Dominates, Even in Absentia

Dan Shak and Tony G are sharing a table in the corner of the Red section. Shak asked the G why Isildur1 backed out of the "Big Game" that Tony was going to put Isildur1 into in London a few months ago.

"He had a driving test he had to take," joked the G. Then, more seriously: "I'm helping Party out. Party's not putting any money in. I think a different online site paid him and he went to a different tournament. I think he was bought out. That site thinks he's the biggest thing since sliced bread. He was wearing their logo."

"Why was it so quiet?" Shak pressed.

"He wanted it that way."
