Bullets For Hachem
Level 10
: 500/1,000, 0 ante
Andy Frankenberger opened to 2,100 and it folded around to Joe Hachem who three-bet to 4,700 from the button. Action came back around to Frankeberger and he called the raise.
The dealer fanned 
on the felt and Frankenberger checked. Hachem continued for 2,700 and Frankenberger called. Both players checked the 
on the turn and did the same after the 
fell on the river. The 2005 WSOP Main Event champion rolled over 
and it was enough to drag in the pot.

Vitkind Flops Straight; Eliminates Kurtzman
Level 11
: 600/1,200, 0 ante
We arrived at the table to find the aftermath of the action on the flop. The board read 
and Eric Kurtzman was all in for his tournament life with 
for top pair against the flopped straight of Dmitry Vitkind with 
. The turn and river brought the 
and the 
respectively.
Vitkind scooped the pot and eliminated Kurtzman with his straight, but it was Mike Linster on the other side of the table who was visibly upset, folding 
on the flop after Vitkind's large raise. Linster would have made a spade flush and became one of the top stacks had he stayed in the hand. Fortunately for Vitkind, Linster was out and he was able to drag in a pot that leaves him flirting with 100,000 in chips.
