Kling Is Cleaning Up

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

Lauren Kling is doing well for herself and has boosted her stack to 41,000. Also nicely stacked is Gordon Vayo, who you may recall finished second to Davidi Kitai in the $3,000 Six-Handed No-Limit Hold'em event a week ago.

One man who isn't doing great is Carter Gill who looks to have busted judging by his old seat now being vacant.

Jazayeri Flying High; Wade Loses a Little Ground

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

Tristan Wade opened to 825 from late position and Sean Jazayeri flat-called in the cutoff seat. The button proceeded to move all-in for 1,800 in total and once both blinds got out of the way Wade raised to 4,500. This folded out Jazayeri and the cards were revealed.

Wade held the {K-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and was against the {A-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. Wade never caught up as the board ran {A-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{A-Clubs}{10-Spades} and the button doubled.
