Flush No Good for Sugar Bear

When we got to the table, Al "Sugar Bear" Barbieri was in the middle of a big pot on the turn, with the board reading {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, and it appeared that Barbieri was considering whether to call a fourth bet from his opponent. He tossed in the call, and checked in the dark going to the river, which was the {4-Hearts}. His opponent bet out, and Barbieri beat him into the pot. His opponent showed {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for a full house, and Barbieri angrily mucked {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for the nut flush face up. Despite the hit, it's been a great day for Barbieri so far, as he's up to 70,000.

Cage Canned

We reported earlier that Tom Cage, who came into today as the chip leader, was having a rough go of it today, and it appears as though his bad luck continued through the break, as he has been eliminated from today's play.

Another Bracelet Winner Down

Dutch Boyd
Dutch Boyd

Dutch Boyd had done some building since the last time we checked in with him, but the former WSOP bracelet winner was just eliminated over at Table 436.

In the hand that left him crippled, Boyd raised preflop to 2,400 and Ismael Bojang three-bet to 3,600 from the cutoff. Boyd called and the two players saw a flop of {j-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. Boyd checked-raised Bojang's flop bet, but Bojang immediately fired back with a three-bet. Boyd called with just 3,000 chips behind, and the dealer rolled out the {J-Spades} on the turn. Boyd checked and then went into the tank after Bojang put in his big bet. After a few minutes and some chatter from Bojang, Boyd released his hand.

Boyd was eliminated on the very next hand, meaning he'll have to wait another day to chase after his third WSOP bracelet.

Freiberg Cracks 100k, Mizrachi Short

When we got to the table, Michael Mizrachi and Alex Freiberg were heads up on a flop that read {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. Mizrachi check called a bet from Freiberg, and the {2-Hearts} peeled off on the turn. Mizrachi again check called a bet, and the river was the {7-Clubs}. Mizrachi checked a third time, and this time, Freiberg checked, showing {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}. Mizrachi mucked his hand, and he is on thin ice with just 5,200, while Freiberg is the first player to crack the 100k milestone, as he's up to 100,500.
