Lutz Doubles Through Scott, Scott Busts Soon After

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Christopher Scott's tournament has ended after two hands in quick succession sent him to the rail.

Scott lost 145,000 of his stack when he called Thomas Lutz's all-in bet on a {7-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop with {K-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for middle pair and a flush draw. Lutz held {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for top two pair, which remained best as the {Q-Diamonds} turn was followed by the {3-Hearts} river.

Shortly after, we heard "payout" and turned around to see Scott being escorted to the payout desk.

Deadman Walking

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Simon Deadman
Simon Deadman

"That was a horrible spin down," said Simon Deadman as we talked about his untimely demise from Event #49. One minute Deadman was flying high, the next he was heading to the rail via the cashier's cage.

The start of Deadman's downward spiral saw him open to 12,000 from the cutoff and face a three-bet to 29,000 from Sergei Stazhkov on the button. Deadman went into the tank before emerging with an all-in bet, a bet that was instantly called.

Deadman: {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Stazhkov: {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}

Deadman was in a typical coinflip with Stazhkov, a coinflip he would ultimately lose as the board ran out {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. To add insult to injury, Deadman had to help Stazhkov count his stack after the dealer seemed to refuse to count them! The amount was 225,500 and it left Deadman with just 62,000 chips.

Down to 10 big blinds, Deadman open-shoved from the hijack seat and the big blind called. Deadman tabled {A-Spades}{K-Spades} and was up against {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for another race. Once more, Deadman lost as the {9-Clubs}{5-Spades}{9-Spades} flop improved the big blind to a full house, rendering the {A-Diamonds} meaningless and the {2-Clubs} river even more so.

Boatman Triples Up

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

There had been a raise in early position and a call in the cutoff before Boatman squeezed all in for 65,000 from his seat in the big blind. Both players called and checked down the {9-Spades}{7-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs} board, Boatman winning with his {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} when the other players mucked.

Boatman Busts One

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Daryl Katz opened to 17,500 from the button and found callers in the shape of Barny Boatman in the small blind and the gentleman in the big blind.

The trio shared a {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}]{A-Hearts} flop. Boatman bet 32,000 and the big blind called off his last 12,000. Katz folded and the cards were revealed.

Boatman had flopped two pair with his {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}, while his opponent's {K-Spades}{3-Clubs} needed to catch a jack to stay in the game. That jack never appeared on the {2-Hearts} turn or {6-Clubs} river and we are down to 47 here in Event #49.
