Eskenazi Clubs Greenstein

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We're unsure of the action, but Scott Eskenazi just doubled through Barry Greenstein on the river of a {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{6-Spades}{q-Hearts}{4-Clubs} board. The all-in bet was for 21,600, and Eskenazi held {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a rivered flush. Greenstein, who had {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}, slipped to 60,000 chips, while Eskenazi doubled to around 100,000.

Seth Folds on the River Again

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Earlier today, Ryan Schmidt check-raised Andy Seth on the river of an unknown board. Seth thought for a reasonable amount of time, then mucked his hand.

Just now, the two were heads with around 15,000 in the middle up on a board of {4-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{k-Spades}. Seth had a bet of 9,500 in front of him, Schmidt raised to 31,100, and Seth went deep into the tank. Two minutes after thinking silently, Seth apologized to the table. Two minutes after that, he cut out enough chips to make a call. Roughly a minute later he thought better of it, and after five minutes in the tank, he folded once again.

Sands and Ferrera Chop It Up

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Keith Ferrera raised to 2,700 from the small blind as everybody had folded to him. In the big blind David Sands made it 6,400 to go but that was not the end of it. Ferrera came back with a raise to 11,400 and called when Sands put him allin. Ferrera had the worst of it with his {A-Clubs}{8-Spades} as Sands turned over {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for the better ace.

The board helped Ferrera though as both made two pair with a king: {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}{2-Spades} | {2-Clubs} | {K-Clubs}. Ferrera and Sands both got their chips back and went on to the next hand.

Back-to-Back Can't Go Runner-Runner

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Layne Flack - Eliminated
Layne Flack - Eliminated

Kevin "1$ickDisea$E" Eyster opened to 2,200 from under the gun, Layne "Back-to-Back" Flack moved all in for 12,500 from the cutoff, and Joe Serock cold-called out of the small blind. Eyster called as well, then folded when Serock led out on a flop of {q-Clubs}{3-Spades}{9-Spades}.

Flack: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Serock: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

"Ten of spades on the turn," Flack requested.

The turn was not the {10-Spades}, rather it was the {6-Diamonds}, leaving Flack drawing dead. The {k-Clubs} completed the board, and he hit the rail. Serock now has 115,000 chips.

Reiman Gone

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Ty Reiman, a well known online player and runner-up in the PCA Main Event back in 2010, just busted. The player in the cutoff had opened to 2,100 and made the call when Reiman shoved the small blind for 26,200. Reiman was in a world of trouble with his {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds} as the cutoff showed {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}. Reiman had a gutshot on the flop but that never got there: {Q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} | {6-Clubs} | {2-Clubs}.
