Hitting the Rail

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Yass vs. Zaichenko

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Jeffrey Yass opened from middle position and Andrey Zaichenko defended from the small blind. After the big got out of the way, the flop ran out {10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{q-Spades} and Zaichenko check-called a bet. The Russian then checked the {6-Diamonds} turn and folded to a bet from Yass.

It wasn't much of a hand, but it gave us the perfect excuse to update you on their respective counts.

Chip Counts Coming Back From Break

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Level: 11

Limits: 1,000/2,000

Ante:

Negreanu Busted

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 0 ante
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu, who started the hand with only 3,200 in chips, raised preflop. Jameson Painter made it three bets, and Pat Pezzin called. Negreanu then re-raised all in, and both other players called. The flop came {6-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, and Pezzin bet after Painter checked. Pezzin bet again when the {q-Clubs} fell on the turn, and this time Painter released his hand. The remaining players turn up their cards.

Negreanu: {q-Hearts}{10-}
Pezzin: {k-}{k-}

Pezzin's kings were in the lead, but the queen on the turn had given Negreanu outs to beat him. The {3-Diamonds} on the river, however, was no help to Negreanu, and the five-time bracelet winner has been eliminated.

Ivey's Day is Done

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 0 ante
Phil Ivey
Phil Ivey

We didn't catch Phil Ivey's elimination hand, but his fellow team member Mike Leah was kind enough to fill us in on what happened.

According to him, Ivey raised with {k-}{q-} suited from early position only to have Gary Benson three-bet from the big blind. Ivey called, leaving himself just 1,000 behind, and then called off when Benson led the {j-}{9-}{x-} flop. Benson rolled over {9-}{9-} for a flopped set, and Ivey was eliminated after he wafted his gutshot draw.

Ace-High Good for Seaman

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Joseph Cheong bet out on a flop of {8-Spades}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs}, and John Seaman called. He called again when Cheong bet on the {2-Spades}, then both players checked the river when the {j-Diamonds} hit the felt. Cheong announced, "Nine-high," and then Seaman turned over {a-}{q-}. Cheong slid his cards toward the dealer, and Seaman's ace-high took the pot.
