Hachem Drowned by Lake

[user4144]

"Hey, PokeNews," beamed Scott Lake with his arms outstretched. "You've got to report me as the guy who eliminated Joe Hachem. My mother will love that."

Well, I cannot tell a lie, Lake did indeed bust the 2005 Champ, a three-way pot seeing Hachem all in before fifth street before running headfirst into the wheel.

Hachem: {X}{X}{X}/ {10-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {4-Spades} {4-Hearts}
Lake: {5-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {8-Clubs} / {A-Hearts} {2-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {3-Clubs}
Unknown Player: {X}{X}{X}/ {2-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {4-Clubs}

Gelencser Doubles Through

[user4144]

Peter Gelencser has doubled through to the monstrosity that is 1,200. He was down to just 600 at the time, before a pair of ladies kept him alive.

Gelencser: {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {J-Hearts} / {A-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {9-Spades}
Opponent: {8-Clubs} {J-Clubs} / {6-Spades} {7-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}

Turn of the Screwed

[user46392]

We passed by Jon Turner's table, and he had 2,600. But a few minutes later, returning from a circuit of the Amazon Room, Jon Turner was standing up and putting on his coat.

Conclusion - Turner, who finished eighth in the $1,500 stud event a day or two ago, is bust.

Dutch Splits One

[user4144]

With 4,000 already in the middle, Dutch Boyd reached sixth street where both his opponents moved all in. Initially, it looked as though Boyd was going to pick up a double scalp, but one opponent made a flush at the death to stay alive.

Boyd: {7-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {4-Spades} / {5-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {X}
Short Stack #1: {6-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {X}/ {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {2-Spades} {9-Diamonds}
Short Stack #2: {8-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {6-Clubs} / {A-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {K-Clubs}

Boyd jumps up a notch to 6,700.

Hail, Hellmuth

[user4144]

It's not often you associate fashion with Phil Hellmuth, but today he has arrived fashionably late in a bid to hit cash number 78. Hellmuth's 11 bracelets are all in hold'em, but who knows, perhaps this week he'll break that duck and add seven card stud to his repertoire. At the moment, the Poker Brat has 5,200.
