Hecklen's Kings Beat Obst

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

On seventh street Henrik Hecklen bet and James Obst raised. Hecklen quickly called and the showdown went as following.

Obst: {X-}{X-} / {2-Spades}{K-Hearts}{10-Spades}{4-Clubs} / {X-}
Hecklen: {X-}{X-} / {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} / {X-}

Obst showed {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for three of a kind but that was not enough against Hecklen's {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades} for three of a kind kings.

"Take It Easy, Henry"

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

"Miami" John Cernuto: {X-}{X-} / {K-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} / {X-}
Henry Orenstein: {X-}{X-} / {K-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{7-Spades} / {X-}

On third street, after Juha Helppi brought in, Orenstein completed. Action then folded to Cernuto, and he raised. Helppi folded, then Orenstein reraised. Cernuto called.

Cernuto check-called a bet on fourth street, before calling down on fifth and sixth street.

"Take it easy, Henry," said Cernuto after Orenstein fired the bet on sixth street. "You might be beat."

Orenstein didn't slow down on seventh street, and fired another bet. After a little bit of a tank, Cernuto folded and showed the {K-Hearts} from his hand.

"I started with king-king-eight, Phil," said Cernuto after the hand to Phil Hellmuth. "And they gave me four cards under an eight."

Helppi and Grospellier Bust

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Juha Helppi and Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier have both been eliminated. Grospellier went out first, and he fell to the hands of Barry Greenstein, who climbed to 135,000 in chips. Helppi was busted by Phil Hellmuth, who made queens and jacks to defeat Helppi's pair of fives. Hellmuth moved to 215,000 in chips.

Also of note was that Nikolay Losev just lost a pot to Richard Ashby. Ashby had two kings on his board, and another one came from his down cards to scoop the pot with trips.
