Moore and Martini Building Stack

Christian Zetzsche

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Michael Moore: /
Ronnie Brown: / fold

Michael Moore completed with the six and Roonie Brown called. Moore bet fourth and was called before another bet on fifth with his pair of sevens forced a quick fold.

Julien Martini also took another pot off Scott Cole, who elected to fold when facing ace-queen-jack suited on sixth, flipping over his in the hole that didn't connect at all.

Albini Hurts Campbell with Aces Full

Jan_Kores

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Robert Campbell: /
Steven Albini: /

We picked up the action midway through a big hand that emerged between Robert Campbel and Steven Albini. With a sizeable pot already created, Albini fired on sixth street and then again on the river, getting two calls from Campbell.

Albini rolled over and the dealer informed Campbell about the bad news: "Aces full."

Campbell's hand was no match for the filled bullets and Albini scooped the large pot to soar over 100,000 in chips.

Radoja Runs into the Wall of Griffin

Jan_Kores

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Mark Radoja: /
Ashton Griffin: /

Mark Radoja called with a six and Ashton Griffin completed with a ten. Radoja called and called on fourth again. His board showed a pair of tens on fifth where he decided to lead out. Griffin, however, stuck around, calling.

Radoja fired on both following streets and Griffin called the two big bets. Radoja had sevens in the hole but his two pair was inferior to Griffin's as he finished with kings up.

Two Quick Bustouts After the Break

Christian Zetzsche

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Within quick succession, Walter Twardus and Kevin Iacofano were ousted.

Kevin Iacofano: / /
George Alexander: / /

Iacofano was the first to go after he bet fourth and got his stack in after fifth against George Alexander, who quickly called and showed a set of treys. Iacofano was in dire shape but paired his nine on sixth to go for a miracle runner-runner. Instead, it was a meaningless six and that was it for Iacofano.

Moments later, Twardus had already mucked his cards while Perry Friedman still had a set of sevens tabled to score the knockout and boost his stack slightly.

Campbell Is on Another Level

Jan_Kores

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

We picked up the action on the river where Robert Campbell bet and faced a raise. He thought for a bit and eventually slid in the call.

"You're good," Campbell heard in the showdown as his opponent was bluffing. Campbell then tabled his hand, revealing that he called with just a pair of queens.

Robert Campbell: /
Opponent: /

"Wow, you guys are on another level!" another player on the table said when he saw the outcome.
