Lonnie Heimowitz Eliminated in 10th Place ($14,845)

Level 22
Lonnie Heimowitz
Lonnie Heimowitz

Stud 8

Lonnie Heimowitz: {X-}{X-}/{2-Spades}{J-Clubs}{5-Hearts}
Brandon Guss: {X-}{X-}/{3-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

The two shortest stacks of the table would square off and the shorter of the two, Lonnie Heimowitz, would get the last of his chips in on fifth street. The two turned over their down cards... {A-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for Heimowitz giving him a pair of fives and {A-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for Guss giving him a pair of threes. Sixth street was the {8-Hearts} for Heimowitz giving him a low draw to go with his pair of fives and Guss received the {7-Hearts} also giving him a low draw. Guss would turn his seventh street card up first and it was the {3-Clubs} to give him trip threes. Heimowitz could still hit trip fives himself or a low but he would turn over the {9-Hearts} and was eliminated in 10th place.

Level 22
Dutch Boyd

Razz

A short-stacked Dutch Boyd would get the last of his chips in against Tommy Hang and the cards were all turned face up. Boyd would start out in the lead with his 97 low holding {A-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{7-Spades}{9-Clubs} but Hang would hit running low cards to make a 86 low with {A-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{8-Clubs}. A frustrated Boyd would toss his last card, the {K-Hearts}, into the middle as he was eliminated in 11th place.

Michele Limongi Eliminated in 12th Place ($11,605)

Level 22
Michele Limongi
Michele Limongi

Omaha 8

Chris George opened for a raise, Michele Limongi called off his last 5,000, and Dutch Boyd called from the small blind. The flop came {A-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and Boyd checked. George bet and Boyd called off the remainder of his stack. The cards were turned over:

George: {J-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}
Limongi: {J-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}
Boyd: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}

Boyd was in the lead with his pair of aces but he would have to fade a ridiculous amount of outs from George if he was going to survive. The turn was the {J-Clubs} giving George a few more outs to eliminate both players. Limongi also had a few more outs to survive as well.

The river was the {A-Hearts} and Boyd clapped his hands, excited to scoop the pot with his trip aces. Limongi was eliminated in 12th place as a result of Boyd's scoop.

George Soars; Limongi and Boyd Crippled

Level 22
Chris George
Chris George

Omaha 8

Chris George raised from early position and found calls from Brandon Guss next door, Michele Limongi on the button and Dutch Boyd in the big blind. The flop came down {9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and Boyd checked. George continued out and Guss quickly mucked his cards. Limongi came over the top with a raise and both Boyd and George called.

The board paired with the {9-Clubs} on the turn. Boyd checked, George fired out, and both Limongi and Boyd called. The {Q-Spades} hit the river, prompting a third check from Boyd. George led out and Boyd folded his hand out of turn, stating that he thought Limongi was all in. Limongi, in fact, had 5,000 in chips behind and pondered his action. He tanked for about 30 seconds before letting go of his cards, folding what looked to be {6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades} face up. George flashed {9-Spades}{4-Clubs} for a full house. Limongi was left crippled with just 5,000 in chips while George soared to 710,000.

Adam Friedman Eliminated in 14th Place ($9,238)

Level 21
Adam Friedman
Adam Friedman

Stud 8

Adam Friedman: {X-}{X-}/{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Chris George: {X-}{X-}/{8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{7-Spades}
Tommy Hang: {X-}{X-}/{A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} - fold

It was a three way un-raised pot on third street and on fourth Chris George bet and was raised by Adam Friedman. Tommy Hang folded and George made the call. On fifth street Friedman would check-raise George's bet putting himself all in and at risk. The cards were turned over and Friedman had {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} as his down cards while George had {8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} for two pair. Sixth street wouldn't change anything as it was the {6-Diamonds} for George giving him three pair and Friedman was dealt the {6-Hearts}.

Seventh street gave George the {Q-Clubs} and Friedman would need to pair up one of his cards to stay alive. He squeezed his card, and flipped the {3-Spades} over. The players at the table congratulated Friedman on his performance as he comes up short in his bid to win a 2nd WSOP bracelet.

Razz

Mark Gallo: {X-}{X-}/{A-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Joe Villella: {X-}{X-}/{2-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Hearts} - fold
Michele Limongi: {X-}{X-}/{A-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades}

Mark Gallo put his last 7,000 in chips on the first hand of play and Joe Villella raised with Michele Limongi calling. On fourth street, Limongi bet and Villella called. Villella would fold on fifth street after Limongi bet and Limongi turned over his down cards of {6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for a 65 low which meant Gallo was drawing dead as he had {7-Clubs}{5-Spades} and could at best only get a 75 low. Gallo was eliminated in 15th place which was good for a $7,492 payday.

Kristan Lord enters with the chip lead

Today at the 2014 World Series of Poker we will see Event #27: $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. come to a close and it should be an exciting day of poker action as a tough final 15 will return with their eyes on the $230,744 first-place prize money and the accompanying bracelet. Kristan Lord enters play with the biggest stack sitting with 475,000 in chips. He is followed closely by Stewart Yacik with 468,000 and Brandon Guss with 371,000.

There are others who will have their say at who takes down the title including Dutch Boyd, a two-time bracelet winner, who will enter play with 209,000 in chips. He's joined by fellow bracelet winners David "ODB" Baker and Adam Friedman. The latter will have his work cut out for him as he only has 39,000 chips, which is just under two big bets.

Other notables that will have a shot at a bracelet include Chris George, Tommy Hang, Jon Turner and 2013 WSOP Asia-Pacific $1,650 Pot-Limit Omaha bracelet winner Jim Collopy.

Play will resume in under an hour and we'll play until we have a winner. Who will it be? Follow the coverage here on PokerNews as we will be on hand to provide all of the latest updates.
