Daniel Ospina

By the time Daniel Ospina was all in and called by Eric Rodawig, both had already meshed their cards together.

Daniel Ospina: {A-}{4-}{7-}{4-}
Eric Rodawig: {6-}{6-}{5-}{3-}

"Yay, trip fours," Ospina joked when he received the {4-} next, while Rodawig ended up with an {A-}. Rodawig was still ahead with a {Q-} on sixth, which left Ospina with some hope as he picked up the {3-}.

Rodawig then squeezed his last card and got the {7-}, "It's not a jack," Rodawig added in table chat. Ospina squeezed his last card, turned over the {8-} and became the first elimination in the money. Ospina takes home $15,256 for his efforts.

Level 18 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Calvin Anderson: {X-}{X-} / {9-}{3-}{7-}{10-} / {X-}
Mike Leah: {X-}{X-} / {4-}{6-}{10-}{8-} / {X-}

Calvin Anderson bet fifth and Mike Leah called before Leah bet sixth and Anderson called. Leah also bet seventh and Anderson called after some consideration. Leah flashed the {5-} and Anderson showed the {6-}{2-}{2-} to win the pot.

Cary Katz: {X-}{X-} / {4-}{A-}{J-}{K-} / {X-}
John Hennigan: {X-}{X-} / {6-}{10-}{K-}{7-} / {X-}

One hand later and one table over, Cary Katz completed and John Hennigan called. Hennigan asked for a king for Katz only for the latter to reply "only if you get one first." Katz received the ace right after and bet, Hennigan called. Katz then checked and Hennigan bet, Katz called with more small talk to follow.

Hennigan bet sixth and Katz called, both then elected to check. Katz showed his {J-} first and added "four low cards and then all the crap after," while also mentioning he started with a deuce-seven. Hennigan showed {10-}{8-}{4-} and won the pot, reducing Katz to fewer than two big bets on the money bubble.

Eric Rodawig: {X-}{X-} / {5-}{7-}{J-}{A-} / {X-}
John Racener: {X-}{X-} / {4-}{6-}{Q-}{7-} / {X-}

Picking up the action on sixth street, John Racener called bets from Eric Rodawig on sixth and seventh. Rodawig showed {6-}{4-}{J-} for a seven-six and Racener mucked, dropping to just 8,000.

After being the bring in and folding, Racener committed his remaining 2,000 the next hand on third street. Here is the runout:

John Hennigan: {X-}{X-} / {K-}{3-}{2-}{10-} / {X-}
John Racener: {X-}{X-} / {Q-}{Q-}{4-}{K-} / {X-}
Frank Kassela: {X-}{X-} / {A-}{6-}{6-}{J-} / {X-}

John Hennigan was the bring in, Racener called all in for 2,000, Frank Kassela completed and Hennigan called. Kassela bet on fourth street, Hennigan called, then Hennigan bet on fifth and sixth street. Kassela called both and Racener exited the tournament area at this point.

Both Hennigan and Kassela checked on seventh street and Kassela won the pot showing {5-}{8-}{9-} for a nine-eight.
