Weir Lays a Bad Beat on Agarwal

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Kyle Weir
Kyle Weir

Kyle Weir opened to 5,000 from the cutoff and Aditya Agarwal moved all in for 23,400, and after a short moment, Weir made the call.

Weir: {a-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Agarwal: {9-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The flop gave Agarwal some hope coming three spades: {a-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Spades}. It unfortunately gave Weir two pair and some outs to a full house. The turn {7-Spades} gave Agarwal the flush and he just needed to dodge Weir's four outs to the boat on the river. The dealer painfully flipped over an {a-Diamonds} and Agarwal's tournament was over.

Spitzer Send Ruzicka Home

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

We caught up with table #442 where Eric Spitzer was busy trying to stack up a large pile of chips that used to belong to Czech pro Vojtech Ruzicka.

Spitzer told us that the chips went flying into the middle of a {5-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{6-Spades}{J-Diamonds} board with Spitzer holding {5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} in the big blind and Ruzicka the {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts} on the button. The {7-Spades} completed the board and Ruzicka was gone.

"His face told me he didn't have it," explained Spitzer, "I was afraid he may have had a six, though."

Sherman Stacks Crane

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Russell Crane
Russell Crane

Russell Crane was down to a handful of chips worth about 6,000 and he moved them all-in from the hijack only to see Michael Sherman three-bet to 19,100 from the small blind. Guillaume Fourcade called from the big blind and it was three-ways (one all-in) to the {8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop.

Sherman set the price to continue at 20,000 and Fourcade folded.

Sherman: {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
Crane: {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

The {10-Hearts} on the turn took away Crane's backdoor flush outs and left him drawing to an eight in order to win. The {Q-Hearts} improved Sherman to an unnecessary full house and Crane crashed out of this event.

Vinny Pahuja raised to 5,300 from the hijack seat and found a call from Adam Levy in the big blind. The two of them went to a flop of {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{10-Hearts} and Levy check-called Pahuja's small bet of 5,000. The turn was the {5-Clubs} and both players checked. They also checked down the {3-Clubs} river and Levy turned up {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts} to win the hand.
