Schleger Doubles Through St. Hilaire

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

We missed the precise pre flop action but we're sure Schleger was all in pre flop with {J-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} from the button. He was up against James St. Hilaire who held the better hand with {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}. The flop gave Schleger a pair and that one would hold from there on out: {J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs} | {7-Clubs} | {7-Diamonds}. St. Hilaire had to give Schleger another 3,400 but there was already something out there in the main pot. Schleger now has

Odonoghue Emerges As The New Chip Leader, Phan Out

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Tue Phan
Tue Phan

Tue Phan started out the day second in chips with 115,000, but he has lost all those chips by now, handing the keys to the kingdom to Brian Odonoghue.

We picked up the action on the turn as Phan bet 7,000 on {6-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. Odonoghue raised it up to 22,000 and Phan made the call. The turn brought the {4-Diamonds} to the table and Phan check called a 14,000 bet by Odonoghue. The river was the {A-Clubs} and Phan checked again. Odonoghue put his opponent all in for his last 55,000 and after three minutes of tanking, Phan decided to call.

Odonoghue showed {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for the nut flush and Phan tabled {K-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. That big pot made Odonoghue into one of the chipleaders, while Phan departed probably wondering 'what could have been'.

Riess Out

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Ryan Riess started at a tough first table but had 84,600 to start with. He lost some early on, and the rest of the chips are gone now as well.

He shoved all in under the gun for about 10,000 and was looked up by Christopher Scott in early position. All other players folded and the cards had to be shown. Riess was in trouble with his {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}, he was dominated by Scott's {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}. With {K-Clubs}{5-Spades}{K-Clubs} | {K-Spades} as the board on the turn, there was some hope for a split pot if another {5-} would pop up, but Riess had no such luck. The {8-Diamonds} on the river was a blank and Riess had to leave the tournament area.

MacPhee Hits a Two Outer

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Kevin MacPhee
Kevin MacPhee

We missed the exact action pre flop but Kevin MacPhee told us he had three bet from the big blind, so there was already some chips in the middle when the action escalated. On a {8-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} flop MacPhee bet 12,200 and he insta-called as his opponent shoved all in for 42,400 effectively. MacPhee turned over {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts} while his opponent, who was seated in middle position, had flopped a set of eights in this already big pot with {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}.

MacPhee stood up from his chair and was already emotionally out of the tournament, when the {K-Diamonds} hit the turn. The {6-Clubs} on the river didn't change the situation and MacPhee sat back in his seat. MacPhee now has about 114,000.

Hartmann Doubles Through Becker

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

On a {A-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop we witnessed a lot of action. Ryan Hartmann had checked from the big blind and the player under-the-gun had made it 15,500. Brent Becker on the button made the call and now the action was back on Hartmann. He shoved all in for about 43,000 and the player under-the-gun folded. Becker on the button made the call though and must have been feeling pretty good with his {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}. There were only two hands he was in trouble against but unfortunately for him, Hartmann had one of them: {2-Spades}{4-Diamonds} for the flopped wheel. If the board would pair all things would change. They did not, though only low cards would come. The {6-Clubs} on the turn and {2-Diamonds} on the river didn't change the situation and Hartmann would find a full double-up, plus some extra from the under-the-gun player.

Quads For Boatman

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

When we arrived there was a pile of cards on the table which read {J-Clubs}{9-Spades}{A-Hearts} {J-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. That's a lot of cards on the table and we're pretty sure those last two belonged to Barny Boatman who had made quads that way. His opponent would tell us, without much emotion in his voice, that he had {A-}{K-} and they went all in on the flop. The ace high flop made all this action possible between top-pair, top-kicker and a set, and Boatman had rivered quads to make it just a little more special. Boatman now plays a little over 120,000.
