Rinat Shakirov was all in over an opening raise and Jimmy Fricke made the call in the small blind. The original raiser folded.

The cards ran out {9-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Fricke added another small pike to his stack.

Kuhn Busts Another, As Does Fricke

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

Robert Kuhn didn't waste any time sending another player to the rail. We didn't witness the hand, but Kuhn told us his {a-}{q-} busted another pair of jacks, as he again got it all in preflop for approximately 95,000 and won the race for a second time in just a few minutes.

Another hand was brewing at the table as Jimmy Fricke opened to 5,600 from early position and a player in middle position raised to 13,500. Fricke made the call and checked after a flop of {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{5-Spades}. His opponent also checked and the turn was the {5-Hearts}. Fricke led out for 12,000 and his opponent made the call.

The river brought the {7-Diamonds} and Fricke moved all in. His opponent called, tabling {q-}{q-}. They were not even close to good, though as Fricke turned over {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for quads and an elimination.

Berlin's Bold Prediction

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

As we passed his table Nachman Berlin called out to this reporter, "Hey yo. Remember my name, I'm going to win this."

With his stack at the moment he has some work to do yet, but he certainly is a confident fella that… Ummm.

No, it's gone.

Double Knockout for Beaudoin

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

We arrived at the table as two players were departing and Dale Beaudoin was stacking their chips, knocking them both out in the same hand with {a-}{k-} to increase his lead in the tournament.

“I was oh-for-five with ace-king before that hand.” He told this reporter. Make that 1-for-6 and a mound of chips.

Kuhn Busts a Player

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

Robert Kuhn opened from under the gun. It folded around to the big blind who shoved all in and Kuhn made the call. Kuhn had {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and needed to improve against the {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} of his opponent.

The flop was {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}{2-Spades} and Kuhn's opponent was at risk and looking for one of two outs or two runners. The board ran out {6-Clubs}{7-Spades} though and Kuhn is over the century mark.
