Queens Hold for Clements

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Action folded around to the cutoff, and he moved all in for his last 45,200. It folded to Scott Clements in the big blind, and unfortunately for the player in the cutoff, he woke up with {q-Hearts}{q-Spades} and made the call. The board ran down {10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{k-Spades}{8-Clubs}, and Clements scored the knockout to boost his stack to 350,000.

Lisandro Flush with New Chips

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Jeff Lisandro
Jeff Lisandro

Known more for his world class seven card stud play, Jeff Lisandro is showing he can also play hold'em, making a deep run in this event. He just won a big pot to get his stack up to a shade under 200,000.

There was 14,000 in the middle of a heads up pot on a {a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop when we got to the table. Lisandro checked to his opponent on the button, who fired out 12,500. Lisandro check raised all in for his last 82,800, and his opponent made the call.

Lisandro: {6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

Lisandro would need another pair or a diamond to win the hand, and when the {j-Diamonds} hit the turn, he had his opponent drawing dead. The board completed with the {2-Diamonds}, and Lisandro upped his stack to 198,000.

Carroll Doubles Huge Through Rheem

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

We caught up with the action on the flop, which had come down {6-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{3-Spades}. James Carroll fired 19,000 from the small blind, and Rheem made the call from the cutoff. The turn brought the {4-Spades}, and Carroll fired again, this time for 33,000. Rheem responded by moving all in, easily having Carroll covered. Carroll quickly called.

Carroll: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Rheem: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

Carroll had flopped top set, but he still had to fade a spade or an ace on the river. That card came the {6-Hearts}, and Carroll scored the double up to 260,000. That knocked Rheem down to 360,000.

Clements Takes Lead as Dinner Nears

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Scott Clements
Scott Clements

Chino Rheem had built up a huge chip lead on the rest of the field at his starting table, but he has since been moved, and his stack is spiraling out of control. In the latest hand, Scott Clements raised to 6,500 in the cutoff, and Roman Valerstein called on the button. Rheem three bet it to 20,000 from the small blind, and Clements was the lone caller.

Rheem fired out another 20,000 after the flop came {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}, and Clements took some time before announcing all in, having Rheem covered. Rheem frustratingly folded, and after that hand, he is all the way down to 116,000, while Clements is our new big chip leader with 490,000.
