Su Gains Some Ground

Stud

Alexander Wice: (X)(X) / {10-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Steve Sung: (X)(X) / {4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Stephen Su: (X)(X) / {8-Spades}{7-Spades}{a-Spades}{j-Hearts}

We caught up with the action in this hand when Wice bet on fourth street, getting calles from both Su and Sung. Su caught an ace on fifth street and made a bet with Wice calling, but Sung folding. Su's bet on sixth street was enough to convince Wice to lay down the hand.

Su is now at 350,000 and Wice is down to 855,000

Wice Down and Up in Stud

Stud

Alexander Wice has had a roller coaster ride through our first few rounds of stud this level.

Steve Sung: (X)(X) / {4-Spades}
Stephen Su: (X)(X) / {j-Hearts}
Sigurd Eskeland: {10-}{j-}{q-} / {q-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
Alexander Wice: (X)(X) / {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{9-Diamonds} / (X)

Sung made the bring in with Su following it up with a completion. Eskeland three-bet and Wice called. Su decided he didn't want to be involved after all and folded.

Eskeland bet on fourth and fifth streets, getting called by Wice each time. Both players checked sixth street and the river with Wice mucking his hands after seeing Eskeland's set.

However, Wice found some redemption on the next hand.

Nikolai Yakovenko: (X)(X) / {2-Hearts}
Alexander Wice: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} / {7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}
Steve Sung: (X)(X) / {6-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Yakovenko was made to bring in with Wice completing and then calling a three-bet from Sung after Yakovenko folded.

Sung bet on fourth street, getting called by Wice. He'd bet again on fifth street and then called a raise from Wice. Wice checked the river but called a bet from Sung.

Wice showed a set of eights and Sung mucked. After the hand was done Wice was up over 900,000 while Sung slipped further away from a million

Omaha-8

Scott Seiver had the last of his chips in preflop against Steve Sung. Seiver held the {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{6-Spades} up against the {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} for Sung.

The flop came down {Q-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades} and both players picked up a low draw and it was Seiver's aces still in the lead for the high. The turn brought the {6-Clubs} and gave Sung a low while Seiver still held the best high.

"That's not a good turn card," said Seiver.

The river completed the board with the {J-Diamonds} and Seiver said, "And that's not a good river," knowing it gave Sung two pair with jacks and threes to go along with his low. Sung was able to scoop the entire pot and scoop Seiver out of the tournament in sixth place.

With Seiver's elimination, he lost the last-longer bet he made with Chino Rheem where Rheem had taking Sung over Seiver at 3:1 on $1,000.
