Fossilman and Angry John Eliminated

Level 10 : 200/800, 200 ante

Brown Busted by Chiu

Level 10 : 200/800, 200 ante
Chad Brown
Chad Brown

David Chiu completed and Chad Brown three-bet only to have Chiu come back over the top and make it 2,400. Brown called, and then called bets on fourth and fifth before raising all in for his last 2,000 on sixth with Chiu making the call.

Chiu: {X-}{X-} / {J-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Brown: {X-}{X-} / {J-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{4-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

Chiu tabled his {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} for aces-up to be ahead of Brown's {K-Clubs}{J-Spades} for kings-up. Unfortunately for Brown, he could only find a {6-Diamonds} on the river to be forced to the rail as Chiu collected the {4-Diamonds} to eliminate Brown and move to 40,000 in chips.

Lindemann Chiu'd Up

Level 10 : 200/800, 200 ante

Holger Lindemann: {x-}{x-} / {10-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{10-Spades}{x-} / {x-}
David Chiu: {x-}{x-} / {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{a-Clubs} / {x-}

Lindemann was all in on third, and Chiu isolated him from two other opponents when he paired his jack on fourth street. Lindemann revealed {k-Hearts}{10-Spades} for a pair of tens, Chiu the {a-Spades}{3-Hearts}, and Lindemann was unable to catchup on fifth or sixth and simply discarded his downcard.

He hit the rail, while Chiu now has 35,000 chips.

Cyndy and Roland Exit

Level 10 : 200/800, 200 ante

We are unsure of their exact elimination hands, but with both players being short, they have recently been seen heading to the rail.

Wittock Chipping Back Up

Level 10 : 200/800, 200 ante

Kenn Wittock completed and was called in one spot before he bet out again on fourth. Wittock was called, and then paired on fifth but instead checked before his opponent followed suit. Sixth saw Wittock fire out a bet of 1,600 and his opponent swiftly mucked.

Wittock: {X-}{X-} / {K-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{K-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Opponent: {X-}{X-} / {J-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{J-Spades} (folded on sixth)

Wittock, who took a dip early, has now mounted a fine comeback and sits with just over 60,000 in chips - good for a top three chip count.

Monnette Stays Alive

Level 10 : 200/800, 200 ante

John Monnette found himself all in on fifth street with both his and his opponent's boards running out as follows to seventh.

Monnette: {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} / {9-Clubs}{4-Spades}{Q-Spades}{J-Spades} / {X-}
Opponent: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} / {5-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{J-Hearts} / {X-}

Monnette's opponent flipped over the {A-Clubs}, but it would be his {4-Hearts} on seventh to see him catch two pair that would keep him alive in the tournament with 9,200 in chips.

Not the Best Street

Level 10 : 200/800, 200 ante

Joseph Esposito: {x-}{x-} / {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{a-Clubs} / {x-}
Freddie Ellis: {x-}{x-} / {2-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{q-Spades} / {x-}
Scott Seiver: {x-}{x-} / {3-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Spades} / {x-}

Esposito led out for a bet on fourth street, and both Ellis and Seiver called.

"Not our best street," Seiver joked to Ellis.

Both players called a second bet on fifth street, and only Seiver called Esposito's bet on sixth when he paired his ace.

"This is probably the last bet I'm calling," he told him.

True enough, Seiver folded to Esposito's bet on seventh, and the Brooklynite pulled in the pot.

"See," Seiver said, smiling.

Showdown Value

Level 10 : 200/800, 200 ante

Jesse Martin: {x-}{x-} / {a-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{5-Spades} / {x-}
Opponent: {x-}{x-} / {3-Spades}{6-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} / {x-}

Martin led out on sixth street, and a gentleman who did not report his name last night raised. Martin tanked for quite some time, then made the call.

On seventh, Martin checked, and the player quickly checked behind. Martin revealed the {a-Diamonds} for trip aces, which his player couldn't beat with kings-up.

"I knew if I bet you wouldn't call unless you got it," the player told Martin.

It wasn't the most elaborate explanation of showdown value, but it was certainly on point. It also saved the unknown player a bet in his stack.
