Phamboozled

His aces cracked, David Pham has been eliminated
His aces cracked, David Pham has been eliminated

David "The Dragon" Pham had a well below average stack when he opened with a raise to 1,525. An opponent reraised to 4,525, Pham repopped it all in, and his opponent made the call.

Pham tabled {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}, and was hoping to survive against his opponent's {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}. But the board brought a mess of spades -- {10-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{K-Spades}{J-Spades}{7-Spades} -- giving Pham's opponent the flush and sending him railward as we move into the second half of Level 7.

Hey Soul(ier) Sister

We picked up the action on the river with a board reading {5-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and about 65,000 in the pot. Fabrice Soulier moved all in for his last 16,000 and was called by the player in the cutoff.

The cutoff showed {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} but was no good against Soulier's {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. Soulier took down the pot and doubled to 98,000.

Katchalov Katches Kings

Eugene Katchalov was all in for his last 10k with {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}, and he had to dodge {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. The {j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop was safe, and he could breathe easy after the {k-Clubs} turn gave him an unbeatable boat. He still can't breathe that easy, however, as the double up only boosted him to 22k.

Burkholder won the pot with two pair, nines and sixes, and pushed his stack to 135,000 in chips.

We rolled up on this one on the turn with the board showing {7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{3-Hearts}. A player bet 7,500, and David Williams made the call.

The river was the {2-Hearts}. This time Williams' opponent fired 17,500, and once again Williams called. The 2004 WSOP Main Event runner-up tabled {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}, and it was a winner as his opponent mucked.

Parker Slips

Catching the action with the board reading {5-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, we found both Brock Parker and opponent committing 7,000 each as the dealer dropped the {10-Spades} on the turn.

Parker check-called another 7,000-chip bet as the river landed the {2-Hearts} and both players checked it through.

Parker tabled his {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, but it would be his opponent's {7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} that would see him collect the pot as Parker slips to 18,0000 in chips.

Shake Your Moneymaker

Chris Moneymaker was under the gun and raised to 1,400. One early position player and the big blind tagged along to see a flop of {Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{10-Spades}. Everyone checked to the {8-Hearts} on the turn, at which point the big blind checked and Moneymaker bet 2,600.

The early position player then raised to 6,100, the big blind folded and Moneymaker made the call. The river was the {5-Spades} and Moneymaker check-called his opponent's 5,000 bet. Moneymaker showed {9-Hearts}{9-Spades} for a straight but was behind the other player's {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs} Broadway straight.

Moneymaker is down to 83,000.
