Young Eliminated By Tryba's Kings

Young: {X-}{X-}/{2-Spades}{10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}/{X-}
Kostritsyn: {X-}{X-}/{A-Spades}- completes, then folds
Greenstein: {X-}{X-}/{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}/{X-}
Tryba: {X-}{X-}/{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{K-Hearts}/{X-}

Lets keep it simple. After a series of raises on third street, Jason Young was all in against Chris Tryba and Barry Greenstein. Taking the lead on board with a pair on fourth street, Greenstein bet on fourth and fifth, getting called by Tryba on both. They checked it down after that, with Tryba showing {K-Clubs}{X-}{X-} for a pair of kings. Greenstein couldn't beat it, nor could Jason Young with his wired {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, giving the pot to Tryba.

A Whole New World

Schulman: {X-}{X-} / {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{8-Spades} / {X-}
Hennigan: {X-}{X-} / {6-Spades}{K-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{2-Spades} / {X-}

We caught up with the action on sixth where Nick Schulman check-called John Hennigan’s bet. Both players checked seventh and Hennigan turned up {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for trips while Schulman mucked. Hennigan built on his chip lead while Schulman's stack dropped quite a bit from what it was earlier.

Paluszek Eliminated

Jim Paluszek = Eliminated
Jim Paluszek = Eliminated

Sorel Mizzi has been a thorn in Jim Paluszek's side ever since the redraw and has just finished Paluszek off.

Paluszek was all in on third street with {A-Spades}{7-Clubs}/{7-Diamonds} against Mizzi's {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}/{J-Hearts}. Neither player improved their respective hand, giving Mizzi the pot and ending Paluszek's tournament.

Hawrilenko Boats Up

Level 16 : 6,000/12,000, 1,500 ante
Matt Hawrilenko
Matt Hawrilenko

Hawrilenko: {x-}{x-} / {K-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades}{8-Hearts} / {x-}
Tang: {x-}{x-} / {2-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Spades}{J-Clubs} / {x-}

Joining the action on sixth street and Matt Hawrilenko was betting into Kevin Tang but the latter showed no sign of going anywhere, calling 12,000 bets on sixth and seventh street. Hawrilenko flipped {K-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} for a full house and Tang flashed the {8-Spades} before flinging his cards in the muck.

Barry Greenstein
Barry Greenstein

Kostritsyn: {Q-Spades}{5-Clubs} / {J-Spades}{7-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{2-Spades} / {3-Diamonds}
Greenstein: {2-Hearts}{8-Hearts} / {2-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Spades} / {J-Clubs}

Barry Greenstein was all in and at risk on third against Alexander Kostritsyn. Greenstein began the hand in the lead with a pair of 2s but Kostritsyn went ahead with queens on fifth. It came down to seventh where Kostritsyn still had one pair so Greenstein would need to pair one of his previous cards to stay in contention. It was not meant to be however as he peeled the {J-Clubs} and signed his book for Kostritsyn before leaving. Kostritsyn has retaken the chip lead once again

Amaral Busted

Amaral: {K-Hearts}{2-Hearts} / {9-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{7-Spades} / {x-}
Glantz: {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} / {K-Clubs}{2-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}/ {5-Diamonds}

Chris Amaral lost a big pot when he paid off Men Nguyen's queen-high flush and the remainder of his chips went in with a three-flush against Matt Glantz' buried eights. By fifth, Amaral had a huge draw with overcards and a flush draw but couldn't make anything as Glantz improved to two pair on sixth. Amaral's final card was a brick and he was eliminated just shy of the money.

Brown Taken to Town by Ville

Brown: {X-}{X-} / {3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} / {X-}
Wahlbeck: {X-}{X-} / {J-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{A-Spades}{A-Clubs} / {X-}

Chad Brown brought in, Christopher George completed, Ville Wahlbeck raised, Brown re-raised, George folded and Wahlbeck called. Wahlbeck check-called Brown’s bet on fourth and bet on fifth. Brown raised and Wahlbeck made the call. Wahlbeck bet again on sixth and seventh and Brown just called only to be shown the {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{4-Hearts} of Wahlbeck for trip aces. Brown frustratingly showed {3-}{3-}{9-Clubs} for rolled up threes which couldn’t improve and were no good.

Habib Doubles

Level 16 : 6,000/12,000, 1,500 ante

Hasan Habib was all in for his last 25,000 with split queens against Ville Wahlbeck's split nines. Habib improved to queens and threes but Wahlbeck couldn't catch anything to help him. Habib is back up to about 60,000 but he's still a short stack.
