Lareybi and Clements Flop Straight

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Scott Clements limped in and both Ali Lareybi and Isaac Hagerling completed and checked their options from the blinds.

Lareybi led out for 15,000 on the {J-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop before Hagerling folded. Clements raised enough to put Lareybi all in, and he made the call for his tournament life.

Lareybi: {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Clements: {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

With both players likely to chop, the {7-Spades} and {2-Spades} run out would indeed guarantee that as both players chopped up Hagerling's big blind.

Chips from Chapman for Black

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

After William Black limped from the hijack seat, Ryan Chapman raised from the button and after the blinds got out Black called.

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Spades}. Black checked, Chapman bet 27,000, and after a pause Black called. The turn was the {6-Spades} and both players checked. The {K-Spades} then fell on fifth street, and Black didn't waste too much time before carving out a bet of 50,000.

Chapman considered Black's bet for a full minute, then pushed his cards away.

Hannawa Folds

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Danny Hannawa opened to 25,000 only to have Scott Clements three-bet to 80,000 . Hannawa made the call and then checked the {K-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop.

Clements slid out a stack of pink 5,000-denomination chips amounting to a bet of 100,000 and Hannawa instantly folded leaving himself just 90,000 in chips.

Hannawa Doubles

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Jeff Madsen opened to 17,000 on the button, and Danny Hannawa tried to move all in from the big blind, but could only bet the pot (55,000), leaving 38,000 behind. Madsen went into the tank, then eventually slid forward enough green T25,000 chips to put Hannawa in. He called.

Madsen: {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs}
Hannawa: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

The flop fell {j-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, giving Madsen bottom two pair, but Hannawa had top pair and an ace-high flush draw. The {a-Hearts} on the turn gave him a better two pair, and Hannawa filled up when the {a-Spades} completed the board.

Hannawa doubled to 190,000 chips, while Madsen dipped down to 948,000.

One Milli for Madsen

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Scott Clements limped in, as did Jeff Madsen and Jason DeWitt before Isaac Hagerling checked his option in the big blind.

Clements bet out 30,000 on the {A-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{5-Hearts} and only Madsen made the call to see the {3-Spades} fall on the turn and Clements check over to Madsen. Madsen paused for a few moments before tossing in 61,000 to force a fold from Clements.

Christian Harder Eliminated in 18th Place ($14,693)

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Christian Harder - 18th Place
Christian Harder - 18th Place

Christian Harder opened for 16,000 from the cutoff seat and got a single caller in William Black playing out of the small blind. The flop came {10-Clubs}{5-Spades}{K-Hearts} and Black led with a bet of 35,000. Harder responded with a raise to 145,000, and after pausing just a few beats Black called the raise.

The turn brought the {10-Hearts} to pair the board, and Black quickly pushed his remaining 120,000 or so in the middle. It was more than what Harder had left and he called. The pair tabled their cards to reveal Harder held {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{5-Clubs} for a Broadway wrap and a flush draw, but he was in tough shape as Black held {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{Q-Spades}{10-Spades} for a full house.

Harder actually had a couple of shots at a straight flush to survive, but the river was the {7-Hearts} and he exited in 18th.

Jarred Solomon Eliminated in 17th Place ($14,693)

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Jarred Solomon - 17th Place
Jarred Solomon - 17th Place

Ashton Griffin led out for 60,000 on a flop of {4-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}. After a minute of contemplation, Jarred Solomon raised the pot, Griffin quickly announced all in (effectively 221,000), and Solomon immediately called.

Griffin: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Solomon: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

Griffin had a pair, a flush draw, and backdoor straight outs, while Solomon had top two along with one of Griffin's diamonds.

The {9-Spades} on the turn kept one of Griffin's backdoor straight draws alive - an eight would give him a ten-high straight - but Griffin didn't make a straight when the {9-Diamonds} completed the board, he made a flush.

"Good luck," Solomon said, standing from the table.

He exited in 17th, while Griffin now has 560,000 chips.

Kings Up for DeWitt

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Mike Sexton limped in and Jeff Madsen completed from the small blind as Jason DeWitt checked his option.

The flop of {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts} saw Madsen lead out for 17,000 with both DeWitt and Sexton calling before all three players checked the {9-Diamonds} and {K-Hearts} on the turn and river.

DeWitt tabled his {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for top two pair and collected the pot.

Just as Level 19 was coming to a close, Poker Hall of Famer Mike Sexton became the fourth elimination of the first hour today after losing the last of his stack to chip leader Jeff Madsen.

Sexton's final hand began with the "Ambassador of Poker" raising to 18,000 from under the gun and getting three callers in Madsen (middle position), Isaac Hagerling (button), and Scott Clements (big blind). The flop came {8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} and after Clements checked, Sexton bet 60,000.

Madsen sat for about a half-minute in his characteristic pose, riffling his chips with his right hand while his left hand rested on his opposite shoulder, then raised to 175,000. The bet forced both Hagerling and Clements to release their hands, then forced Sexton into a couple of minutes' worth of contemplation over whether or not to commit his final 85,000 or so.

Finally Sexton called, asking "You got a set?" "Yes," said Madsen as he turned over {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for three kings. Sexton showed his {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and began calculating what sort of runner-runner combination might save him. The {10-Diamonds} on the turn provided the first step toward one of those possibilities, but the river was the {3-Hearts} and Sexton is out.
