Wattel Busts

Level 3

Stud

With only 1,250 starting the hand, Mike Wattel had just 650 remaining after David "Bakes" Baker double-bet on fourth. Wattel committed his final chips and Baker made the call as both player's boards ran out as follows heading to xeventh street.

Wattel: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} / {7-Hearts}{2-Spades}{K-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Baker: {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} / {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades}

Baker spiked the {5-Spades} on seventh to leave Wattel outs to make two pair, but after he flipped over his {6-Spades}, he was headed to the rail for an early exit.

Elezra vs. Velador & Table 365 Counts

Level 3

Hold'em

Over at Table 365, action folded to Eli Elezra in the hijack and he raised to 600. Jose Luis Velador responded with a three-bet to 900 from the button, both blinds folded and Elezra made the call. Both players proceeded to check the {9-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{j-Clubs} flop and then Elezra checked after the dealer burned and turn the {2-Spades}. Velador took the opportunity to bet, and it got the job done as Elezra released his hand.

Here's a look at their counts as well as the other notables at the table:

Zaichenko KO'd

Level 3

We are not sure of the exact details, but it appears as though Andrey Zaichenko is the first player eliminated from today's flight after losing his last few thousand in a Seven Card Stud hand.

Tryba and Eslami Chop It Up

Level 3

Stud Hi-Lo

Facing a bring-in and two calls, Chris Tryba completed to 300 and was met with four callers. Tryba fired out bets on every street with two of his opponents calling him down the whole way while two dropped out on fifth and sixth.

Player: {X-}{X-} / {2-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts} (folded on sixth)
Player: {X-}{X-} / {7-Clubs}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts} (folded on fifth)
Ali Eslami: {X-}{X-} / {J-Spades}{K-Spades}{A-Hearts}{K-Clubs} / {X-}
Tryba: {X-}{X-} / {3-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} / {X-}
Player: {X-}{X-} / {6-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{J-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} / {X-}

Following his opponent's calls, Tryba tabled his {A-Spades}{2-Hearts} / {7-Diamonds} for aces and a perfect seven-low. Eslami quickly turned over his {J-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades} and collected half the pot from Tryba with his kings-up.
