Tony Gregg Doubles Through Grayson Ramage

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante

A hand that extended into the break...

Picking up the action after a {9-Hearts}{4-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop with about 16,000 in the pot, Tony Gregg bet 8,100 from the big blind. Grayson Ramage called from early position, the {9-Diamonds} hit the turn and Gregg bet 11,700. Ramage called to see the {2-Spades} river and after a few moments Gregg shoved for 29,175. Ramage tanked for a bit before calling.

Gregg tabled {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}, besting Ramage's pocket tens to double up.

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante
Paul Volpe
Paul Volpe

After a series of preflop raises, Jeff Gross was all in and at risk for 43,875 holding {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}. Paul Volpe had him covered by 1,400, but was in very rough shape with {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}.

The pocket rockets held up as the board rolled out {4-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{9-Spades}{6-Hearts}, and Gross doubled through. Volpe was eliminated shortly thereafter.

Raskin Gets His Fill; Bellande Eliminated

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante
Micah Raskin
Micah Raskin

Micah Raskin moved all in for 25,800 into a pot of around 85,000 on a completed board of {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, and Dani Stern went into the tank.

Stern couldn't pass up the roughly 4-1 odds, making the call, and he snap-mucked when Raskin showed {k-Spades}{q-Spades} for a full house.

Over at Table 365, Jean-Robert Bellande was eliminated with unknown action.
