Top Pair For Binger

Michael Binger in action
Michael Binger in action

Michael Binger bumped it up from the small blind to 4,000 only to have Eduardo Miranda three-bet to 6,000.

Binger made the call, before check-calling 2,000 on the {K-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop as the {6-Diamonds} landed on the turn.

Again Binger check-called Miranda's bet; this time for 4,000, as the {Q-Clubs} was checked through by both players.

Binger tabled his {K-Clubs}{8-Spades} to prompt a muck from Miranda as he slipped to 110,000 while Binger climbed to 48,000 in chips.

Lindgren Triples

Christopher Vitch opened to 4,000 from the cutoff only to have Erick Lindgren three-bet from the button.

Shawn Buchanan made the call from the small blind for 6,000, only to have Jeff Norman four-ball it to 8,000 from the big blind to force Vitch out.

Lindgren made the call for the remainder of his chips while Buchanan also called.

The {Q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop was checked down with Lindgren tabling his {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} to rake in the pot against Norman's {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} as Buchanan mucked.

With Lindgren tripling to 30,000, Buchanan and Norman slip to 55,000 and 50,000 respectively.

The Battle of the Shorties

Casey McCarrel was all in on the river of a board showing {10-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}. When he was called down by Chuck Danielsson, McCarrel turned up {Q-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} for the rivered pair of queens. That was good enough to double him up, though both he and Danielsson could still use some help for their six-big-bet stacks:

McCarrel - 28,000
Danielsson - 25,000

Jurgens Barrels

Brian Meinders opened to 4,000 and both Roland Isra and Tad Jurgens made the call from the button and big blind respectively.

Jurgens fired out on every street of the {2-Clubs}{5-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{3-Clubs} board with Meinders and Isra calling him down until they both folded to his 4,000 river bet.

With that pot, Jurgens climbs to 65,000 in chips.

Karr Bombs Out

McLean Karr raised from the cutoff seat, and Anh Le three-bet from the small blind.

The two players took a flop of {6-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}, and Le fired out with a bet. Karr raised, Le three-bet again, and Karr made the smooth call. The turn was the {7-Spades} and the river the {9-Clubs} with Le check-calling bets from Karr on both streets.

Karr tabled {7-} {9-} for two pair, but his hand was no good. Le's {K-} {10-} made a straight, earning the pot and a chip boost to 105,000. That dropped Karr down to just 400 lonely chips.

He quadrupled up on the following hand, and he was all in for 1,600 with {10-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} on the ensuing deal. Michael Binger held {K-Clubs} {5-Clubs} against him, and the board of {Q-Hearts} {5-Spades} {4-Hearts} {2-Spades} {9-Clubs} finally took the last of Karr's stack.

The Last Tran Standing

The perpetually massaged J.C. Tran
The perpetually massaged J.C. Tran

J.C. Tran was all in for his last 2,000 chips before the flop, and he was called by JJ Liu before Justin Parmann raised in the big blind. Liu called the extra bet, and they headed off to the flop of {J-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {10-Clubs}. Liu check-called a bet there, and she check-folded on the {2-Diamonds} turn. The {7-Clubs} filled out the board.

Tran showed {K-Hearts} {8-Clubs} for a big miss, and Parmann's nothing beat Tran's nothing. He turned up {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts}, picking up the pot and sending J.C. out through the double doors.

We had three unrelated Trans begin this event (J.C., Theo, and Jimmy), and none of the three have managed to make the money.

Queen Dethroned

Queen culled!
Queen culled!

Alexander Queen opened to 4,000 from the cutoff only to have Albert Minnullin three-bet to 6,000 from the button.

Queen made it 8,000 and Minnullin quickly capped it at 10,000 with Queen making the call before leading for 2,000 on the {10-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop.

Minnullin called, and then called Queen's last 3,600 when the turn fell the {7-Clubs}.

Queen: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Minnullin: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}

The river landed the {8-Clubs} to send Queen to the rail and push Minnullin to over 105,000 in chips.
