Lee Busts Sheikh

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

We just reported that Bernard Lee had eliminated an opponent and moved to about 90,000 in chips. In fact, he's close to 100,000 and let us know how the hand went.

The cutoff seat, Allen Bari, raised to 3,200. Lee called from the button and then [Removed:163] moved all in from the small blind. Action folded back to Lee and he made the call with pocket nines. Sheikh held {A-}{6-}.

The board ran out {J-}{6-}{2-}{Q-}{5-} and Lee won the hand. Sheikh was eliminated.

Bergeron Busts

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Craig Bergeron entered the pot with a raise only to have Christian Harder come over the top with a three-bet from the cutoff. Bergeron responded by moving all in for roughly 38,000 and Harder made the call.

Bergeron: {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Harder: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}

The jack-high board wouldn't be one that kept Bergeron in the tournament as he was bundled to the rail by fellow online MTT-expert Harder who moved to 82,000 in chips.

Richey Exits

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

After doubling up a player, Brett Richey was knocked down to a very short stack. From under the gun plus one, Richey raised to 12,200 and was all in. 2001 World Series of Poker Main Event champion Carlos Mortensen made the call from the big blind to put RIchey at risk. He held the {K-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. Richey held pocket threes -- {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}.

The flop, turn and river ran out {10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Spades}{7-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and Mortensen was able to hit a ten to win the hand. He moved to about 120,000 in chips while Richey hit the rail.

Montgomery Chipped Down

On a flop of {8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{3-Spades} we found Scott Montgomery's continuation-bet of 5,000 being check-raised to 15,000.

Montgomery responded with a three-bet to 40,000 and his opponent swiftly called as the {10-Spades} on the turn was checked through.

The river of the {6-Diamonds} saw Montgomery faced with a 54,500-chip all in bet from his opponent, which after two minutes, he opted to fold to while slipping to 100,000 in chips.

We don't have any information on exactly how Brian Lemke managed to accumulate a further 100,000 to his already impressive chip stack, but with over 185 big blinds, Lemke is sitting pretty at the moment.

Sands Slides

After a player opened with a raise in middle position to 3,600, Dave "Doc" Sands reraised to 9,400 from the cutoff seat. Action folded back to the original raiser and he made the call. The flop came down {Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}{6-Spades} and both players checked to see the {10-Diamonds} fall on the turn.

On fourth street, the first player checked and Sands bet 7,700. His opponent called and the {Q-Diamonds} paired the board on the river. Both players checked.

The first player tabled the {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and Sands couldn't beat it, mucking his hand and losing the pot.

Williams Stack Washed Away

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

David Williams' chip stack has been on a steady decline today and has recently vanished in a matter of a few hands.

In a recent hand, a player in middle position raised to 3,600 and was called by Williams in the small blind.

The flop brought {8-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} and both players checked.

Williams led out for 5,600 when the {7-Clubs} came on the turn. His opponent called.

Williams then check-called a 14,800 bet from his opponent when the {J-Spades} fell on the river. His opponent revealed {9-Clubs}{9-Spades} for a straight and Williams mucked, dwindling down to just 41,000 after being up to 120,000 earlier in the day.

A few hands later, we missed the action but saw Williams leaving his seat and heading for the rail after getting into a confrontation with Kevin Saul, who currently sits with 105,000.

Affleck Doubles Through Junglen

Matt Affleck raised to 3,200 from early position and action folded to the small blind. That player called before Adam Junglen also called from the big blind. The three players took the flop of {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{7-Spades} and action checked over to Affleck. He fired 4,200 and the small blind mucked. Junglen raised all in to put Affleck at risk. Affleck called and was all in for 29,100.

Affleck: {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}
Junglen: {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The turn brought the {5-Spades} and the river the {3-Clubs}. Affleck's top pair held up and he was able to double up.
