Gabriel Alarie - 18th Place

Lev Rofman quickly grabbed all of Gabriel Alarie's chips in just two hands. First Rofman benefitted when an ace hit the flop in an ace-king versus pocket queens allin. Not long after Rofman collected Alarie's spare chips with pocket nines versus {K-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} in a small blind versus big blind situation.

Bartello Busted

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

Vincent Bartello raised to 8,000 from early position and it folded to Pim de Goede who three-bet the pot from the blinds. It came back to Bartello who called off his last 30,000 all in.

de Goede: {A-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Bartello: {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

The board ran out {2-Hearts}{3-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and de Goede's ace-king was able to hold as the best hand. Bartello was eliminated in 19th place.

Shelton Doubles Purvis

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

Blake Purvis opened the hijack to 10,000 and saw his neighbor Kenneth Shelton three-bet to 36,000 with just 2,500 behind. Purvis decided to call after a minute of thinking but was behind with his {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. Shelton showed {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}.

The flop was {7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Spades} and both made top pair on the {A-Spades} on the turn. The river was the {10-Hearts} and Purvis said "Ten, yeah!" in excitement. "Oh shit" followed not much later when he realized it was a heart.

Flush over Flush for Thomas

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

We caught up with the action to see the aftermath of a hand where Jaspal Brar got all of his chips in holding {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for an ace-high flush on a board of {A-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}. His opponent, Sunny Chattha, held {K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a losing king-high flush.

Brar was all in for 57,000 and was able to double up. Chatta, on the other hand, has fallen to about 205,000 in chips.

Reilly Busts Dykshteyn

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Ruslan Dykshteyn stood on the rail just now as the dealer was counting the chips in a big pot. He knew he wouldn't have any chips left after this pot and that he was out already. The rest of the table and the dealer weren't so sure though. In the end, Timothy Reilly covered Dykshteyn and his {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} out lasted Dykshteyn's {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}.
