Parisi Busts Deeb and Arieh

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Shaun Deeb raised to 10,000 and Frank Parisi called, Christopher Frank min-clicked to 17,000 in the small blind and Josh Arieh in the big blind reraised to 60,000. Deeb moved all in for 70,000, which Parisi called, Frank folded and Arieh called.

On the {10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop, Arieh moved all in for some 110,000 and Parisi quickly called.

Shaun Deeb: {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Josh Arieh: {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Frank Parisi: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades}

Parisi had Arieh covered and flopped best with bottom set, and the {A-Spades} turn and {Q-Clubs} river scored the double knock out.

"This is such a dumb hand," Deeb said on his way out while Arieh left without any comment only a few minutes before the end of the level.

A Few More Chip Counts

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Mizrachi Flushes Rast

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante
Brian Rast
Brian Rast

Robert Mizrachi opened the action with a raise to 10,000 and Craig Varnell called in the cutoff. Brian Rast raised the pot to 46,000 on the button and Mizrachi called, Varnell folded.

"I have 155,500 behind," Rast announced and those chips went into the middle of the table after a flop of {A-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{6-Spades}, Mizrachi looked him up.

Brian Rast: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{J-Spades}
Robert Mizrachi: {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

The {2-Clubs} on the turn immediately left Rast drawing dead, making the {9-Diamonds} river a formality. Rast is expected to re-enter before the start of level 13.

Entries and Eliminations

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Triple Up for Prociak

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

With plenty of chips already in the middle and the turn reading {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Spades}{A-Spades}, David Prociak ended up all in and at risk. He was called by Edward Han in the cutoff and Dan Smith moved all in over the top from the small blind. The chips were pulled in and Smith was all in for another 123,000 on top, which ended up forcing a fold from Han.

David Prociak: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Spades}
Dan Smith: {A-Hearts}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

Prociak only had the case eight to fear, and the river was a meaningless blank to let Prociak triple up.

More Chip Counts

Shaun Deeb and Ankush Mandavia have joined the field for the first time, while Mandy Calara has re-entered.

"Play Good, Run Good"

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

George Wolff raised to 9,000 and was called by Luis Velador in the big blind. On the {K-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} flop, Velador checked and called a bet of 11,000. On the {9-Hearts} turn, Velador led for 26,000 to see Wolff call. The {4-Diamonds} river completed the board and Velador checked to Wolff, who bet 62,500 and received the call.

Wolff rolled over the {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for the full house and Velador mucked. Tom Hu chimed in and said "play good, run good."
