Kravchenko Busts in Razz

Razz

Alexander Kravchenko just busted out in 31st place, he couldn't beat Bruno Fitoussi for his tournament life in a hand of Razz.

Bruno Fitoussi{3-}{5-} / {2-}{Q-}{2-}{J-} / {10-}
Alexander Kravchenko{7-}{Q-} / {A-}{5-}{3-}{K-} / {5-}

On third street Fitoussi raised, and Kravchenko moved all in. The Russian pro got it heads up, and ended up with a queen-seven low. Fitoussi made a jack-ten low and raked in Kravchenko's final chips.

Bloch Sends Antonius Packing

Stud

Patrik Antonius came back from dinner with a short stack, and he didn't manage to put together a comeback. Andy Bloch knocked him out, and we are down to 31 players.

Andy Bloch{k-Diamonds}{2-Spades} / {K-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} / {x-}
Patrik Antonius{4-Spades}{4-Hearts} / {2-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{J-Clubs} / {x-}

Bloch completed it on third street and Antonius made the call. On fourth street Antonius bet and Bloch called. Fifth street still gave the Finnish pro the betting lead, and he bet, Bloch raised and Antonius called all in.

Antonius caught the {5-Hearts} and didn't improve his hand. Bloch turned over the {a-Spades} and knocked his opponent out with two pair kings and deuces.

Ivey Active

Omaha-8

Phil Ivey was very active in the lastest round of Omaha H/L. He doubled up short-stacked Alexander Kravchenko when Kravchenko raised all in with {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. Ivey called from the big blind with {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}, but couldn't come out ahead when the board fell {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}.

Still, Ivey has added about 100,000 to his stack since the break. In a hand against John Hennigan, Ivey raised from the cutoff and then called Hennigan's three-bet from the button.

The flop fell {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and Ivey check-raised a Hennigan bet. Hennigan called to see the {3-Clubs} turn and proceeded to call Ivey's bet. However, he folded to Ivey's river bet after the {3-Hearts} fell.

One for Lellouche

No-Limit Hold'em

From under the gun, Antony Lellouche raised to 15,500. Phil Hellmuth called from the next seat and everyone else folded. The flop came down {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Lellouche checked. Hellmuth bet 20,000 and Lellouche called.

The turn was the {Q-Spades} and both players checked. The river completed the board with the {7-Diamonds} and Lellouche fired 50,000. Hellmuth folded.

Mizrachi Keeps Barrelling

No-Limit Hold'em

Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi raised to 16,000 from early position and Joe Cassidy made the call from the big blind to see the flop come down {J-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Spades}. Cassidy checked and Mizrachi bet 20,000. Cassidy called.

After the {J-Diamonds} paired the board on the turn, Cassidy check-called another bet from Mizrachi. This time it was for 32,000. The dealer then dealt the {10-Clubs} on the river. Cassidy checked again and Mizrachi fired 50,000. Cassidy tanked for a bit, but gave it up in the end and Mizrachi won the pot.
