Odonnell Keeps Climbing

Level 9 : 300/600, 100 ante

A player moved all in for a remaining stack above 10,000 chips and only Kevin Odonnell made the call.

Holding {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} against his opponent {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}, ODonnell was in good shape to claim the pot and a board {6-Hearts}{6-Spades}{j-Spades}{3-Clubs} brought him the winning hand.

Odonnell is now in possession of a comfortable stack worth 56,000.

Liebert Triples Up

Level 9 : 300/600, 100 ante

Kathy Liebert was all in from under the gun for her last 2,100 chips and two players matched the bet.

The two players still active in the hand checked throughout the {2-Spades}{j-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{9-Hearts} runout and Liebert tabled {k-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for a pair of nines. It was enough to win the hand and Liebert now has a stack worth 7,000.

Level 9 : 300/600, 100 ante
Barny Boatman
Barny Boatman

After a player opened, Barny Boatman pushed all in from the big blind for about 11,000. His opponent called and it created the following showdown:

Barny Boatman: {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}
His opponent: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

It was a flip situation for the owner of two WSOP gold bracelets, but a {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{9-Clubs} gave the winning hand to his opponent.

Luske Eliminated by Mikulla

Level 9 : 300/600, 100 ante

Sat with a stack of around 12,000, Marcel Luske opened the action with a raise to 1,800 from middle position. The player in the hijack called before Dean Mikulla also called on the button.

Three-handed to the flop it fell {3-Spades}{9-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and Luske bet 4,500. The hijack folded and Mikulla called.

On the {5-Spades} turn, Luske moved all in for 4,900 and Mikulla made the call.

Marcel Luske: {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}
Dean Mikulla: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

River: {2-Hearts}

Luske was behind but had plenty of outs to hit on the river, but was unable to find one of them and departed the field shortly after the dinner break.
