Nakladal Shove Earns Him Pot

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Steve Yang opened with an all-in raise from under the gun for 166,000, then Benjamin Pollak called from one seat over. It folded back around to Jan Nakladal in the big blind who asked how much the original raise was, then looked over his stack for a short while before announcing he was reraising all in.

The action was back on Pollak, and after figuring out how much more was needed to call Nakladal's shove — 472,000 on top — he thought for some time longer before folding his hand face up, showing {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}.

Nakladal then tabled his {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}, which got a reaction from the table, and Yang showed {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Pollak shook his head, and continued to do so as the board ran out {4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{K-Spades}{3-Spades} to knock out Yang and give Nakladal the pot.

George Triple Up

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Ryan Riess opened to 40,000 from middle position and was called by Mark Newhouse in the hijack. Chris George was next to act, and moved all in for exactly 40,000, before the button and blinds got out of the way.

The flop came down {4-Spades}{2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, as Reiss bet out another 40,000 which was called. The {k-Diamonds} fell on the turn, and a bet of 75,000 from Riess was enough to get Newhouse to fold.

Riess: {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}
George: {6-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

Riess had flopped a set of fours, leaving George needing a three or seven to win the hand with a straight. The dealer then produced the {7-Diamonds} on the river, to give George a much needed triple up, keeping him in the event.

Buckenmayer Busts

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

After being crippled by Chris Johnson, Bob Buckenmayer moved all in for around 100,000 or so hit late position. Simon Lam called in late position, having Buckenmayer crushed.

Buckenmayer: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Lam: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}

"Ace!" Buckenmayer's wife called from the rail. "Ace!"

There was an ace on the {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} flop, giving Buckenmayer the lead, and he remained ahead as the {k-Hearts} turned. Buckenmayer's Main Event came to an abrupt end when the {q-Diamonds} completed the board, however, as Lam made a full house.

Buckenmayer examined the board for a possible straight, and finally realized his fate, walking away with a member of the WSOP staff.

Ylitalo Doubles Through Long

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Senovio Ramirez raised to 45,000, and Philip Long three-bet to 103,000. Robin Ylitalo then re-raised all in for 236,000. Ramirez folded, but Long called and turned over {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}. Ylitalo showed {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}, and it was a coin flip. The flop came {4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{k-Clubs}, giving Ylitalo a pair of kings and the lead. The turn was the {8-Clubs}, and the river the {5-Diamonds}, both bricks, and Ylitalo doubled up.

Richey Knocks Out Defending Champion Greg Merson

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Greg Merson is eliminated from the 2013 Main Event
Greg Merson is eliminated from the 2013 Main Event

Brett Richey raised to 40,000 from middle position, and Greg Merson moved all in next to act for 481,000. As soon as action got back to Richey he made the call, and the defending champ was in need of a lot of help.

Merson: {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}
Richey {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

The flop brought plenty of action, coming down {3-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{2-Spades}. Merson had managed to pair his deuce, but Richey also paired his kicker. The one diamond meant that Merson could catch runner-runner diamonds or also catch a runner-runner straight for a chop, but the {9-Spades} on the turn got rid of those possibilities. Merson would need a deuce and a deuce only to keep his shot at back-to-back titles alive, but it wasn't meant to be, as the {4-Spades} hit the river.

Merson shook hands with Richey before he grabed his bag, wished everyone luck, and headed out of the Mothership. Merson had the deepest run for a defending champion in the Main Event since 2009, where Peter Eastgate finished 78th in his title defense. His elimination means that we will have a new champion, and also means that Steve Gee is the last remaining member of last year's Octo-Nine.

Kevin Calenzo Eliminated By Erkut Yilmaz

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Erkut Yilmaz raised on the button to 43,000 and Kevin Calenzo three-bet all in for 234,000 from the big blind. Yilmaz called with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}, ahead of Calenzo's {A-Spades}{9-Diamonds}. The board ran out {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, improving to Yilmaz to Broadway and eliminating Calenzo.

Montano Doubles Through Bardah

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Javier Montano was just all in before the flop for 468,000 and at risk with {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} versus the {K-Spades}{J-Spades} of Ronnie Bardah. The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Spades}, and Montano doubled up over 900,000 while Bardah now sits with less then 200,000.

Kuzmin Busts Potter

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Alexander Kuzmin opened from middle position, and Jason Potter jammed it all in for 336,000. Kuzmin called.

Kuzmin: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Potter: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

"JPOSU" was in trouble, and the {7-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} brought no immediate help. Potter wasn't discouraged, however.

"It's going to be the ace of diamonds," he declared, as the dealer prepared to bring out the turn card.

Potter failed to call his shot, as the {8-Clubs} emerged from the deck. The river brought a {10-Spades}, finishing Potter off.

Kenny Hsiung opened to 40,000 and was called by the cutoff before Jason Mann three-bet to 140,000. The action folded back to Hsiung and he shoved all in for just under 600,000. The cutoff folded and Mann double-fist-pump snap-called.

Hsiung: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Mann: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}

With Hsiung in desperate need to spike his two-outer, the {4-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop gave him backdoor outs to a straight. The turn landed the {J-Spades}, and when the river fell the {2-Clubs}, Hsiung hit the rail as Mann soared into the chip lead with 3,785,000 in chips.
