Turner Eliminated

Jon Turner
Jon Turner

Jon Turner has been sent to the rail after getting all in and at risk holding {k-}{10-} while his opponent held {9-}{9-}. The flop came {6-}{q-}{2-} and Turner was still behind. The {2-} on the turn and the {4-} on the river were no help and Turner was gone.

Turner came into the day with one of the top stacks, and continued his run reaching a dominating chip lead early on. Unfortunately after a few setbacks Turner found himself in the middle of the pack and sinking.

Break and Color Up

Level 14 : 0/0, 1,200 ante

Players are now on their second break of the day and tournament staff is coloring up and racing off the black t100 chips.

Lindgren Living it Up

Barny Boatman limped in from under the gun and a few others limped as well. Action then found its way to Erick Lindgren on the button who raised it up to 6,500. Boatman moved all in for around 40,000 and the table folded back to Lindgren who made a disheartened call. Lindgren would soon realize though he made a great call.

Lindgren: {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Boatman: {A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

The board came {3-Hearts}{k-Spades}{8-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and with the straight on the river Lindgren was awarded the pot.

Sowers Soars

We don't know exactly how the action went, but we do know Mike Sowers just delivered the knock out blow to Men Nguyen and another player.

According to Sowers Nguyen had {8-}{10-}, the other player had {A-}{Q-}, and Sowers held {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

Sowers more chips than the other two so he would be the only one not at risk. The board came {6-Spades}{5-Spades}{q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{j-Hearts} and with the river jack Sowers hit his straight. No one could counter a straight so Sowers was awarded the pot.

Schwartz and Williams Collide

Jeff Williams bet out 13,500 on a board of {K-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}. Action was up to Justin Schwartz who thought about his decision.

"A queen good, yellowsub?" Schwartz asked Williams using his online moniker.

Schwartz eventually decided that a queen was good and made the call, showing {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}. Williams showed {J-}{10-} then flung his cards to the muck.
