Getzwiller Doubles Up MacPhee, Then Busts

From under the gun, Sean Getzwiller raised to 425. Action folded to Kevin MacPhee in the cutoff seat and he reraised all in for 4,550. Play got back to Getzwiller and he made the call.

Getzwiller: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
MacPhee: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

The flop, turn and river ran out {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}{8-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Spades} and MacPhee doubled up, which left Getzwiller with about 5,500. He was then eliminated shortly thereafter.

Gates Busts 2004 Main Event Champ

Greg Raymer raised to 450 and Garry Gates called from the small blind. The flop came down {J-}{6-}{2-} with two hearts and Gates checked. The 2004 World Series of Poker Main Event champion fired 500 and Gates called.

The turn was an offsuit {3-} and Gates checked. Raymer checked behind. The river then completed the board with an offsuit {9-} and Gates fired 3,000. Raymer tanked for a bit and then called, leaving himself with just 100 chips behind. Gates showed a set of sixes and Raymer mucked his hand.

"All you had to do was make it an extra 100," said Raymer. Either that or he didn't care." Raymer then busted two hands later.

Glantz Out

Matt Glantz has been eliminated. We're unsure of how the money went in, but when we arrived at the table, Glantz's {K-}{J-} was laid out against an opponent's {A-}{A-} on the {Q-}{5-}{2-}{9-}{7-} board. We're assuming the money went in preflop, but either way, Glantz is out the door.
