Adam Johnson Eliminated by Robert Cowen

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Adam Johnson limped and when the action got to Robert Cowen he made it 6,000. Johnson called and both players saw the {4-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} flop appear.

That's the point where all the chips got in within seconds.

Cowen showed {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for two pair and Johnson showed {A-Diamonds}{8-}{7-}{5-} with the nut diamond draw.

The board bricked out with the {2-Clubs} turn and the {K-Spades} river and the pot went to Cowen, while Johnson is eliminated from the tournament.

Guessous Scores a Double Through Wilensky

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

The board read {k-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and Ibrahim Guessous moved all in for his remaining 14,100. Dawn Wilensky thought for a few moments before making the call and put Guessous at risk of elimination.

Guessous tabled {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{k-Spades} for a pair of aces and Wilensky showed {8-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{j-Diamonds} for a pair of kings. The turn came the {9-Diamonds} and Wilensky picked up a straight draw, but failed to hit anything as the {2-Spades} fell on the river and Guessous took the pot.

Joseph Leung opened by betting the size of the pot, which was 4,200. When it folded to Joe Cada on the button, the 2009 Main Event champion called. Uri Reichenstein was on the big blind and he repotted to 17,400.

Leung pushed all-in for a total of 10,300 and Cada called the bet of 17,400.

The flop came down {J-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{7-Clubs} and Reichenstein put a big stack in the middle of the table. Cada folded and Reichenstein and Leung tabled their hands.

Uri Reichenstein: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Joseph Leung: {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{10-Spades}

The dealer completed the board by dealing the {6-Hearts} turn and the {9-Diamonds} river. Reichenstein raked in the pot as Leung waited for the dealer to say "payout".
