Robinson Gives Myers a Gift

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

On a {2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{8-Spades}{9-Hearts} board, Carter Myers bet 26,000 and then called when Gary Robinson moved all in for 221,000. Robinson was caught with his fingers in the cookie jar because he only had {A-Clubs}{4-Hearts} in his hand and was way behind the {9-Spades}{8-Clubs} of Myers. The {3-Spades} river failed to change anything and Robinson was left with just 70,000 chips.

Bolek Makes a Big Fold

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Chris Bolek
Chris Bolek

Chris Bolek, who has WSOP bracelet winner Max Waxman on his rail, has just made a big laydown judging by the look of pain that was on his face as he mucked his hand.

On an {8-Spades}{K-Spades}{4-Spades} flop, Bolek bet 26,000 from the cutoff and Mathew Moore (button) called. The {A-Spades} turn put four spades onto the board and it was unsurprising that both players checked.

The {K-Clubs} river saw Bolek tank for close to 90 seconds before betting 62,000. Moore's eyes never left the community cards until he looked towards the dealer and said,

"I am all in."

Bolek exhaled loudly and scrunched up his face, stood from his chair before sitting back down. He sat with the hood of his green jacket over his face, before removing it and folding.

"Nice hand buddy," said Bolek.

A simple, "Thanks" was Moore's response.

Riess Doubles

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

"Let's Go! Let's Go!" shouted the railbird supporting Ryan Riess as he doubled to 220,000 to give himself a little more breathing room in Event #30.

Riess got his chips into the middle with {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} against the {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} of John Thompson. Riess paired his ace on the {3-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{A-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} board and is now armed with 220,000 chips.

Bolek Eliminates Kopacz

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
David Kopacz
David Kopacz

The tournament just lost David Kopacz. He was on quite a heater but his heater has ended due to one giant hand. We saw the action taken from the flop of {8-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}. Kopacz bet out 40,000 when Chris Bolek checked. Bolek then made the call.

The turn came the {3-Hearts}. Bolek checked again. With that Kopacz went straight for his chips and announced "all in". Bolek could not turn his hand up faster as he had {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for a flopped set. Kopacz could only turn up {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. The river was not a king and Kopacz was eliminated in 20th place.

Greenberg Flushes Up to a Big Stack

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Ben Greenberg
Ben Greenberg

We caught up to speed when the action was on Ben Greenberg on a flop of {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. Greenberg was already facing a bet and a call. He proceeded to push his recently newfound chips all into the pot.

He was called by Jesse McEuen who stated when he called, "Lets do this!"

McEuen had {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} but it was drawing near dead to Greenberg and his {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. Greenberg won when the {3-Spades} and {6-Diamonds} came out on the turn and river.

Greenberg shot up to one of the biggest stacks with 518,000. While McEuen went down to 165,000.
