Racener Cracks Kings

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

John Racener found his last 16,500 all in preflop with his {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} trailing his opponent's {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}.

Fortunately for the 2010 Main Event runner-up, the {7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{J-Spades}{K-Hearts}{6-Spades} board would see him spike a set to double through to roughly 35,000 in chips.

Williamson Bets Into Flush

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

The player under the gun opened to 2,200 and action folded around to Robert Williamson III on the button. He raised to 6,800 and the UTG player called.

The flop came {7-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} and UTG check-called 6,600 from WIlliamson. The turn came {J-Hearts} and UTG again check-called 13,000 from WIlliamson. The river brought the {10-Hearts} and UTG checked a third time. WIlliamson decided to check behind and UTG announced flush, exposing {5-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {6-Hearts}.

Williamson sighed and flashed the {A-Clubs} and mucked his hand.

Cousineau Wheels Double

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

On a flop of {4-Spades}{A-Spades}{2-Clubs} we found Florian Langmann checking to Tony Cousineau who fired out a pot-bet. Ben Lamb folded, but Langmann pushed Cousineau all in as he called off his last 17,800.

Cousineau: {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Langmann: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{3-Spades}

The turn and river landed the {Q-Hearts} and {A-Hearts} to see Langmann slip to 24,000 as Cousineau climbs to 42,000 in chips.

Chen Exits

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 0 ante
Bill Chen
Bill Chen

Bill Chen's chair was empty and no chips were found, so our PokerNews reporter did some investigating to find out how Chen was eliminated.

Speaking to a combination of players, we were informed that Chen opened with a raise holding {7-}{6-}{5-}{3-} only to have Chris Back three-bet with double-suited aces. Chen made the call, and when the flop of {Q-}{8-}{5-} arrived, he committed what remained.

Back made the call with his over-pair and flush draw, and held true as Chen was forced to make an early exit.
