Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 0 ante
Jimmy Fricke - 14th place
Jimmy Fricke - 14th place

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

James Woods raised to 17,500 from the button and George Trigeorgis called in the small blind. Jimmy Fricke thought long and hard before sliding out his last 18,000. Woods and Trigeorgis called the additional 500, and the dealer spread a {10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop.

Trigeorgis bet 17,000 and Woods called as the {Q-Diamonds} landed on the turn. Trigeorgis bet 50,000, and Woods took a little over two minutes before folding.

Trigeorgis: {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{J-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}
Fricke: {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

With Fricke drawing to two outs (to make a straight flush), the river brought the {A-Hearts}, and he was eliminated in 14th place.

Abrams: {X-}{X-} / {6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{J-Clubs} / {X-}
O'Dell: {X-}{X-} / {A-Spades}{10-Spades}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades} / {X-}
Vitch: {X-}{X-} / {8-Clubs}{Q-Spades} (folded on fourth)

After taking several minutes to find a call on seventh, Abrams would show his {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} to take the high against O'Dell's {4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for the low.

Chris Vitch

Stud Hi-Lo

Scott Abrams: {X-}{X-} / {3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}
Chris Vitch {X-}{X-} / {7-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} - fold

Scott Abrams bet with two wheel cards out and Chris Vitch called. Abrams spiked another wheel card on fifth street and barreled. Vitch counted his chip stack and decided to fold, leaving himself with just 27,000 or so.

Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Vitch picked the next game and chose pot-limit 2-7 triple draw. He was in the small blind and the action folded to him. Vich potted, Abrams threw in more chips to cover his all-in and Vitch called off for the rest.

Abrams took two on the first draw and one on the second before patting the river with {10-}{7-}{6-}{4-}{2-}.

Vitch had been dealt {7-}{5-}{4-}{3-} and kept drawing the fifth card but he couldn't get there as he peeled a {J-} on the river.

Badeucey

At the same time as Chris Vitch was being eliminated, Chris Bolek raised to 20,000 and James Woods made it three-bets to go from the small blind.

Bolek called and drew two to Woods' one. Woods bet and Bolek called and the same draw was repeated.

Woods bet 20,000 and Bolek raised all in for his last 36,000 and Woods called. Woods stood pat, and Bolek drew one.

Woods: {9-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}
Bolek: {8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

Woods had a nine-nine, and Bolek had outs to scoop.

Unfortunately he could only find the {3-Hearts}, and Bolek was eliminated in 12th place for a $$6,698 payday.

Jeff Lisandro completed and John Hennigan called. Hennigan bet on fourth street before Lisandro raised to 20,000. Hennigan quickly made it three bets to go and Lisandro called.

Hennigan bet 20,000 dark on fifth and Lisandro called all in for his last 10,000 as each player's boards ran out as follows:

Hennigan: {8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} / {7-Spades}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} / {A-Diamonds}

With Hennigan making a straight and an eight-low, Lisandro's jacks-up and jack-low were no good, and the Australian was eliminated in 11th place.

John Hennigan completed and Anthony Arvidson made it two bets. James Woods called and so did Hennigan. Arvidson continued with two wheel cards out and then three-bet over Hennigan's raise. Woods called twice and they continued three-way to fifth.

Arvidson paired fours and bet on fifth, earning two calls. His board double paired but sixth street was checked around. Hennigan then fired on seventh and Arvidson called. Woods couldn't escape and called as well.

Arvidson ended up scooping both halves of the three-way pot, sky-rocketing to a solid chip-stack.
