Leary & Klodnicki Double Bubble; to Split 48th Place Money

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 700 ante
Chris Klodnicki & Dustin Leary we co-bubble boys.
Chris Klodnicki & Dustin Leary we co-bubble boys.

It took nearly an hour for the bubble to burst, and it's only fitting in a tournament played with split-spot game that two players would fall in the last hand before the dinner break and have to split 48th-place money,

Omaha Hi-Low

In one hand, we arrived at the table with a board reading {8-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{5-Spades}{a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}. A short-stacked Dustin Leary was already all in from the big blind, while action was complete between Tyson Marks and Mike Roeseler.

Marks: {3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Roeseler: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}{2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Leary: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}{2-Spades}{7-Spades}

Marks had the wheel to scoop the pot, which eliminated Leary on the bubble. However, two tables down there was another all-in pot.

Stud Hi-Low

Chris Klodnicki was all in after third and got three callers, Tom Schneider got out of the way on fifth and then the action was capped between Julie Schneider and Christopher McHugh on sixth. On seventh there was just single bet and call.

Tom Schneider: {x-}{x-} / {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{3-Hearts} muck
Julie Schneider: {3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} / {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{5-Spades} / {7-Spades}
McHugh: {5-Hearts}{a-Spades} / {4-Clubs}{3-Spades}{6-Hearts}{2-Hearts} / {8-Diamonds}
Klodnicki: {2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} / {5-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} / {10-Hearts}

Schneider won the high with a seven high straight, while McHugh took the low with a wheel. That sent Klodnicki out as the co-bubble boy. Klodnicki and Leary will split the $4,694.

Glantz Busts Talbot and Chow

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Stud Hi-Low

We didn't catch the action until third but super short stack Michael Chow as well as David Tarbet were at risk against Matt Glantz.

Glantz: {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
Chow: {2-Spades}{5-Spades}{K-Spades}{2-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{4-Spades}
Tarbet: {9-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

Both short stacks had outs to improve but ultimately the aces and tens won the pot for Glantz. Chow as well as Tarbet both take home $4,694.

Aronesty And Beckstead On The Rail

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Stud Hi-Low

We didn't see the action because the cards were already rushed away but Joseph Aronesty got chopped up by Humberto Brenes (low) and Owais Ahmed (high). Only one hand later, short stack bubble miracle Thomas Beckstead was sent to the rail as well.

Reslock Stays Alive

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Stud Hi-Low

Vanessa Selbst brought it in with the {2-Hearts} showing and a short-stacked Chris Reslock moved in for 2,500 total. Erik Seidel then raised to 6,500, Jan Erik Sorensen called, and Selbst got out of the way. Seidel and Sorensen both checked fourth, and then the latter folded to a bet of 8,000 from the former on fifth.

Reslock: {5-Clubs}{4-Spades} / {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{j-Hearts} / {4-Diamonds}
Seidel: {4-Hearts}{3-Clubs} / {4-Clubs}{5-Spades}{a-Clubs}{10-Clubs} / {9-Hearts}
Sorensen: {x-}{x-} / {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{10-Spades} fold

Seidel had a lot of outs headed to seventh, but he blanked. That allowed Reslock to increase his stack with queens and fours.

Another Two Down

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Stud Hi-Low

We are down to 40 players already. Daniel Makowsky ran out of chips and Thomas Butzhammer did so as well with pocket tens. Another opponent had tens as well and Joe Tehan looked them both up with the {Q-Spades} showing and {4-Spades}{6-Spades} as down cards. Tehan ended up with aces but the other player made tens and sevens to scoop the pot and bust Butzhammer.

The Great and Powerful Oz

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Stud Hi-Low

We caught the action on sixth street when Robert Mizrachi bet, Konstantin Puchkov folded, and Mike "The Mouth" Matusow raised all in. Mizrachi called with a wheel and Matusow was in big trouble.

"I need a heart," he said before the dealer dealt seventh. "It's read," he said as he squeezed it out.

Mizrachi: {4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} / {2-Spades}{5-Spades}{k-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} / {7-Clubs}
Matusow: {6-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} / {2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{a-Hearts} / {9-Hearts}

Just like the great and powerul Oz did for the Tinman, Matusow was granted a heart to extend his tournament life.

George Danzer On The Rail

George Danzer

Omaha Hi-Low

The mixed game specialist from Germany, George Danzer, has been eliminated. He was rather short and had half of his stack in pre flop with {A-}{2-}{3-}{K-} and saw a {4-}{4-}{6-} flop to draw to the nut low. He was called by {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{7-Hearts} and turn as well as river blanked out to avoid a chop.
