John Racener - Race for the Prize
John Racener - Race for the Prize

Eric Buchman: {x-}{x-} / {2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{K-Hearts} / {x-}
John Racener: {x-}{x-} / {2-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades} / {x-}

Picking up the action on fourth street and John Racener was check-calling bets from Eric Buchman on that street and fifth as well as calling another bet from the chip leader when he bet out on sixth and seventh.

Buchman turned over {7-Spades}{5-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} for a pair of sevens and a 7-5-3-2-A low which was good to scoop the entire pot.

Billirakis Gets Scooped

Roger Hairabedian: {x-}{x-} / {6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} / {x-}
Steve Billirakis: {x-}{x-} / {Q-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{10-Spades} / {x-}
Jon Turner: {x-}{x-} / {4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} / {x-}

Steve Billirakis was all early on in this hand and Jon Turner bet fifth, sixth and seventh street with Roger Hairabedian calling him down. Turner showed {5-Spades}{8-Hearts}{J-Clubs} for a 6-4-3-2-A low while Hairabedian flipped {2-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Spades} for sixes and deuces for the high. Billirakis couldn't beat either and was knocked out.

Savinov Savvy Enough

Steve Billirakis: {x-}{x-} / {6-Spades}{7-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{J-Spades} / {x-}
Mikhail Savinov: {x-}{x-} / {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{5-Spades}{10-Spades} / {x-}

David Benyamine: {x-}{x-} / {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}{Q-Spades}{8-Clubs} FOLDED

David Benyamine had the bring in before Steve Billirakis completed, Mikhail Savinov made it two bets and John Turner made it three bets with all three other players calling. It was checked to Billirakis on fourth and he bet with everyone else calling and the same pattern occurred on fifth. On sixth Savinov bet his open tens, Turner and Benyamine folded and Billirakis raised with Savinov making the call.

On seventh, Savinov check-raised Billirakis causing the latter to open fold his {A-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs} (aces up) hand.

Mortensen Busts, Buchman Almost on a Quarter-Million

Carlos Mortensen

Eric Buchman: {x-}{x-} / {6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{10-Hearts} / {x-}
Jennifer Harman: {x-}{x-} / {A-Spades}{10-Spades}{K-Clubs}{K-Spades} / {x-}
Carlos Mortensen: {x-}{x-} / {2-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} / {x-}

Carlos Morternsen had the bring in and John Racener completed, Christoper George made the call as did Eric Buchman before Jennifer Harman made it two bets, Mortensen then made it three bets, Racener and George both folded but Buchman and Harman made the call.

Harman and Mortensen both checked fourth street and Buchman bet, Harman raised and Mortensen reraised all in. Buchman raised again and Harman called. We missed the action on fifth street but Harman bet her open kings on sixth street with Buchman calling.

On seventh Harman check-called a bet from Buchman, the latter showing {3-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} for a flush, Mortensen could only show {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{9-Spades} for rolled up deuces and no-one produced a qualifying low - hence Buchman scooped.
