MacPhee Doles Out the Fives

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The preflop action escaped us, but we do know that Fabrice Touil, who finished eighth in Event #24: $5,000 Six-Handed No-Limit Hold'em a few days back, got his stack all in preflop against Kevin MacPhee.

Touil: {a-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
MacPhee: {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

It was a flip, but not after the flop came down {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{5-Hearts} to give MacPhee a set. The {4-Diamonds} turn left Touil in need of a six on the river to win, but it was not meant to be as the {9-Hearts} appeared instead.

Hawkins Shot Down

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Maurice Hawkins
Maurice Hawkins

We missed the elimination of Maurice Hawkins, but Canada's Steven Kerr was kind enough to inform us of some details after the fact.

As he told it, the two got it in on the river when Kerr had an ace-high straight with {k-}{j-}. He said Hawkins never showed his hand, but did say that he had two pair. Whatever he had the result is the same — Hawkins has been eliminated from the tournament.

Benger Banged to the Rail

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Griffin Benger three-bet all in with the {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} after Jeff Madsen opened the {K-Spades}{J-Spades}.

"All right, let's see what happens," said Madsen, as he made the call. Then after seeing Benger's small pocket pair Madsen said, "That's what I thought."

The board ran out in Madsen's favor, coming {K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, and Benger was out the door.

Peters Finds a Little Luck to Double

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

David Peters moved all in from the hijack for his last 18,900 and Dani Stern called him from the button. The blinds got out of the way and the cards were turned on their backs.

Peters: {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Stern: {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}

Peters was in dire straits, but lady luck smiled upon him by delivering him the lead with a king on the {2-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{k-Spades} flop. The {10-Clubs} turn gave Stern a straight draw to go with his ace, but the {6-Hearts} river failed to help him. Peters doubled through while Stern was left on a short stack.
