Rampone Fires & Donates to Lipkin

The action has picked up since the last level. We caught a flash of the board reading {A-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {K-} {J-} {A-Spades} before the dealer turned it over. Rampone had pocket tens and Lipkin held {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}. Rampone had a large stack of 5,000 chips that he had bet on the river.

New Chip Leader

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Foster Hays and an opponent got it all in preflop. Hays held {a-}{a-} and his opponent held {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}.

The flop hurt Hays when it ran out {2-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}. The turn didn't help him either when the {3-Diamonds} fell. Hays hit the {a-Clubs} on the river to take down the pot.

Hays now sits at the top of the leader board with 350,000 in chips.

Adios Adomkevicius

After having lost a massive pot in a previous hand, Aneris Adomkevicius was practically forced all in before the flop with a measly {8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, only to be called down by Peter Ketterling who tabled {4-Spades}{4-Clubs}.

Adomkevicius found a little bit of help on the flop of {7-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, but the {4-Diamonds} on the turn put Ketterling even further ahead. Needing a six to stay alive, Adomkevicius fell one short with the river {5-Diamonds} and went busto.

Toth All But Out

Richard Toth is almost eliminated.
Richard Toth is almost eliminated.

Richard Toth opened for 8,000 in late position and was called by Helen Ellis in the big blind. The flop came {J-Spades} {9-Hearts} {5-Clubs}, Ellis check-called 11,000 from Toth. The turn fell {Q-Clubs} and both players checked. The river produced the {9-Diamonds} and Ellis quietly announced all in for 64,000.

Toth called and lost all the color in his face when Ellis tabled {K-Clubs} {10-Hearts}. Toth flashed pocket aces and counted down his stack. Toth was almost exactly even with Ellis and when it was all said and done he had exactly two 500 chips. He went all in on the next hand and won, but still not enough for one big blind.
