Cernuto Takes Some From Kassela

John Cernuto
John Cernuto

Kassela: (x)(x) / {5-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} / (x)
Cernuto: (x)(x) / {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}{j-Spades}{q-Clubs} / (x)

"Miami" John Cernuto bet out on fourth street when we got to the table, and Frank Kassela called. On fifth and sixth street, Cernuto bet once again, and Kassela called once again. Both players checked seventh, and the cards were revealed. Kassela showed {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts} for a pair and a missed low draw, and Cernuto showed {10-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{7-Spades} for a pair of aces, which was good enough to win the pot.

Near Dinner Chip Counts

We have about 15 minutes left until dinner, and here's how the chips are looking around the room.

Jett Propelled

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Leah: {x-}{x-} / {7-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{10-Spades} / {x-}
Helfert: {x-}{x-} / {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} / {x-}
Jett: {x-}{x-} / {2-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Spades} / {x-}

Jay Helfert fired out on fifth with Karina Jett and Michael Leah both calling, Jett took over the betting on sixth and seventh as Helfert became more cautious, checking when first to act. Leah also called on sixth but folded on seventh when Jett bet again, Helfert though made the call.

"Wheel," said Jett showing {A-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. It was good enough for the whole pot once more.

Women Holding On Strong

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Maria Ho has just been eliminated, but despite that, there are still six ladies alive in this tournament with 80 players left. This includes the likes of Karina Jett, who is our current chip leader, Cyndy Violette, and Kristy Gazes. We have already had two women finish runner up in earlier tournaments. Could this tournament show that the third times the charm? Only time will tell.

Jett: (x)(x) / {a-Hearts}{2-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Darnaby: (x)(x) / {4-Hearts}{q-Spades}{k-Spades}{7-Hearts} / (x)

Karina Jett has been on a roll today, and she has just won another pot to keep her as the only player over 100,000 in the room. We caught the action on fifth street, where James Darnaby bet out. Jett raised him, and Darnaby called. Jett then bet out on sixth and seventh street, and Darnaby called both times. Jett turned over {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a nine-high straight and a seven-low, and Darnaby mucked. Jett is currently sitting at 104,000, while Darnaby drops to 26,000.

People Forced to do Walk of Shame

Barbaro Gets Chopped Up

Bronshtein: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} / {6-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} / {J-Hearts}
Violette: {5-Clubs}{4-Clubs} / {3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{J-Clubs} / {8-Hearts}
Barbaro: {A-Diamonds}{7-Spades} / {7-Clubs}{4-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Spades} / {9-Clubs}

The pot was already massive whe it got to seventh street, Violette and Barbaro both checked to Bronshtein who bet and both called with Barbaro calling all in. Bronstein said, "I'm only rolled up, I haven't got anything else," showing trip sixes.

Violette flipped 8-5-4-3-2 for a low, Barbaro could only make a 8-7-6-4-A low and a pair of sevens and got scooped by the other two players, getting eliminated as a result.
