Trevor Pope - 13th Place

Trevor Pope's hopes of earning a second WSOP gold bracelet this summer in Event #41 ended in the final hand of Level 20 after he got the last of his short stack all in with {k-}{k-}{8-}{5-} against Timo Pfutzenreuter's {A-}{A-}{x-}{x-}, then saw an ace flop and no help to arrive for him subsequently.

Pope adds a 13th-place finish to his win back in Event #2: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em (Eight-Handed).

Tony Gargano raised to 20,000 from the small blind, then Yevgeniy Timoshenko made it 80,000 to go from the big blind, leaving himself just 146,000 behind. Gargano called the reraise, then after the {2-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop bet 180,000 and Timoshenko called all in.

Timoshenko had {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{J-Spades}{4-Hearts} and Gargano {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades}. The turn was the {6-Spades} and river the {3-Hearts}, and Timoshenko survived.

Lucas Vandenbelt Eliminated in 14th Place ($19,646); Viacheslav Zhukov Eliminated in 15th Place ($19,646)

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Lucas Vandenbelt - 14th Place
Lucas Vandenbelt - 14th Place

Preflop action saw Viacheslav Zhukov (big blind), Lucas Vandenbelt (under the gun), and Timo Pfutzenreuter (middle position) together see a flop come {10-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, at which point Zhukov bet all in for 240,000, then Vandenbelt raised all in for 270,000 total. Pfutzenreuter called the reraise, having both players well covered, and the trio tabled their hands:

Zhukov: {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} — a pair of tens
Vandenbelt: {5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Spades} — fives and treys, open-ended straight draw
Pfutzenreuter: {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} — diamond flush draw

The turn was the {J-Diamonds} to give Pfutzenreuter his flush, and after the {7-Clubs} river the field had been reduced by two. Meanwhile, Pfutzenreuter is now up over 1.3 million and the clear chip leader at the moment.

Pfutzenreuter Takes from Timoshenko

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Heavy action between Timo Pfutzenreuter and Yevgeniy Timoshenko had built a pot of more than 500,000 when a flop came {Q-Spades}{10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, at which point the pair got the last of Pfutzenreuter's stack in the middle.

Timoshenko had {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} for aces and a gutshot to Broadway. Meanwhile Pfutzenreuter had {K-Clubs}{K-Spades}{J-Spades}{4-Clubs}, giving him an open-ended straight draw plus the flush draw, and when spade fell among the remaining two cards, Pfutzenreuter had made a flush and doubled through Timoshenko.

Gargano Gains Through Manzano

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Alex Manzano raised to 20,000 from the cutoff and Tony Gargano called from the small blind. Sorel Mizzi then reraied to 80,000 from the big blind, and both Manzano and Gargano called.

The flop came {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}. It checked to Manzano who bet 220,000. Mizzi folded, but Gargano called all in for 202,000.

Gargano held {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} for a pair of sevens, a straight draw, and a heart flush draw. Meanwhile Manzano had {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades} for sixes and a guthot. The turn was the {3-Clubs} and the river the {2-Hearts}, and the seven in Gargano's hand was enough to give him the hand and continue his tournament run.

Wei Kai Chang Eliminated in 17th Place ($19,646); Lasell King Eliminated in 18th Place ($19,646)

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Lasell King - 18th Place
Lasell King - 18th Place

Not long after the redraw came a big three-way hand involving two short-stacked players — Lasell King and Wei Kai Chang — and currently-on-a-heater Joseph Leung.

The hand began with King raising to 35,000 from under the gun and Wei Kai Chang reraising all in for 94,000 from the cutoff seat. Leung called the reraise from the big blind, then King called all in for 59,000 total.

Leung: {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{J-Spades}{7-Hearts}
King: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Chang: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{4-Spades}

The board came {4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{7-Spades}, then {9-Spades}, then {J-Diamonds}. That added up to unimproved aces for King, jacks and fours for Chang, and jacks and sevens for Leung who earns two knockouts and has now moved into first position.
