Trickett Hits the Rail

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Erik Seidel raised to 4,000 preflop and Sam Trickett called in position, as did Eric Crain in the big blind.

The flop came {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and Crain checked. Seidel bet 9,000 and Trickett moved all in for 24,500. Crain quickly mucked and Seidel made the call to put Trickett at risk.

Seidel: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Trickett: {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}

The turn was the {4-Clubs} and the river was the {j-Clubs}. Just like that Trickett's day is done and Seidel moves up to 100,000 chips.

Player of the Year Race

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante
Hellmuth congratulating Lamb
Hellmuth congratulating Lamb

The race for the Player of the Year is only intensifying as the $50,000 Players' Championship final table gets settled in for the long haul. With his eighth-place exit, Ben Lamb added another 86.40 points to his tally, pushing his cumulative total out to 659.05 points. Even Mr. Phil Hellmuth found the heart to commend Lamb on his abilities as he exited today. Mind games, maybe? Hellmuth is the one chasing Lamb right now, and he's got a good chance at running him down. The Brat has already locked up another 136.80 points to bring his own total up to 595.05 and counting -- closing in on Lamb. Check out how the points will be divvied up for the remaining five players:

PlacePoints
1st360
2nd252
3rd180
4th158.4
5th136.8

Hellmuth can take the overall lead, but he'll need to run this chip stack all the way to heads-up play to do so. A win would make him nearly untouchable atop the rankings.

Owais Ahmed and Brian Rast can also close in on Lamb with a win today, but neither can catch fully up to him in this event.

Mizzi Scoops to Bust Force

We caught up with the action on a {9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} board where Leif Force moved all in for 24,000 total and Sorel Mizzi said, “I don’t see how I can fold” before he put in the chips for the call. Mizzi turned over {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} for trips but we didn’t catch Force’s hand. The river was the {Q-Hearts} which gave Mizzi a full house and Force was eliminated.

Mizzi Gets 3/4

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

We came to the table as Sorel Mizzi and Surindar Sunar were heads up. The flop came {6-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}, and after a series of raises, the two got the money in preflop, with Sunar having Mizzi slightly covered.

Mizzi: {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
Sunar: {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}

Mizzi had a pair of fives, along with a low draw, straight draw, and flush draw. Sunar held a giant wrap, and also had a great low draw himself. Upon seeing the hands, fellow table mate Ali Eslami was surprised, and said jokingly, "Does anyone play aces anymore?". The turn came the {3-Spades}, giving both players an identical six high straight and six low. However, the {6-Diamonds} hit the river, giving Mizzi a flush, and three quarters of the pot. Mizzi is now sitting on 43,100.

Vaughan Wins Battle of Brazil

We caught up with the action heads up on an {A-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop between two Brazilians. It appeared as though Jose Vaughan bet 6,600 but Alexandre Gomes certainly raised the pot. Vaughan called all in for his last 24,000 more or so.

Vaughan: {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Gomes: {A-Spades}{9-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}

Vaughan was ahead with top and bottom pair but Gomes had higher two pair outs to go along with his nut-low draw. The {K-Diamonds} on the turn gave Gomes some additional high hand outs but the {A-Hearts} filled Vaughan up who doubled.

Talaber Doubles

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

On a {q-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{9-Diamonds} board, Mikhail Savinov was facing a decision to call the all in bet from Richard Talaber. After a couple of minutes, he decided to make the call and Talaber tabled {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} for a flush that Savinov was unable to beat. Talaber now has 60,000 while Savinov falls to 20,000.
