Blinded Down and Out

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

A player who was blinded down to a single T500 chip waited in vain for someone to bust until he went all in under-the-gun just after the level changed. He found himself heads-up against the big blind, Brendan Taylor.

Taylor: {6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{8-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}

The flop of {k-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} gave Taylor two pair, while a {7-Clubs} gave him a straight. The {8-Hearts} river was a brick, and hand-for-hand play ended at last.

Also, the tournament staff restarted the level to make up for time lost during hand-for-hand play.

Burr Bests O'Shea

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

John O'Shea raised from early position and was called by both blinds, seeing a {9-Spades}{4-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop. Everyone checked, and a {7-Hearts} hit. Melissa Burr bet out from the small blind, the big blind mucked, and O'She raised. Burr called before betting the {2-Hearts} river. O'Shea called, mucking at the sight of Burr's {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, good for eights and the nut low.

Bonomo Busts Rast

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
Brian Rast busted late on Day 2.
Brian Rast busted late on Day 2.

Justin Bonomo put in a raise on fourth street that put Brian Rast all in, and Rast called on the {j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{9-Clubs} board.

Rast: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}{a-Spades}{9-Spades}
Bonomo: {a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Spades}

Both players had aces and nines, but Rast's set was a notch better.

"I have a straight draw," Bonomo said, as his {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} was open-ended with the board's {j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. The river was the {q-Spades}, filling Bonomo's straight to send Rast to a painful exit.
