Ryan Leng
Ryan Leng

PLO

With action on the {K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} river, there was just under 60,000 in the pot and Ryan Leng fired 41,000 in the middle position. Ryan Bambrick, sitting in cutoff, contemplated his decision and then paid the price.

"Nut flush," Leng said, turning up {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{9-Hearts} for the goods. Leng now pushed his stack over 430,000 while Bambrick still maneuvers a solid 215,000 in chips.

Hartmann Outflips Gallagher

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Hold'em

From cutoff, Tony Hartmann open-shoved for just under 40,000 and John Gallagher looked him up from the small blind. It was a fair clash with Hartmann showing {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}, battling against {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}.

Hartmann liked the {K-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop and he held on the {2-Hearts} turn and {10-Diamonds} river to secure a double.

Bambrick Rivers Nehorayan

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

PLO

Ryan Bambrick raised to 5,000 under the gun and Jon Turner flatted in the small blind. Robert Nehorayan raised pot in the big and only Bambrick called the 20,000-raise.

The dealer spread out a flop of {3-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Nehorayan shoved his last 33,200. Bambrick asked for a count and then put Nehorayan at risk.

Nehorayan had {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and needed to fade diamonds as Bambrick turned up {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. The {5-Spades} turn was safe for Nehorayan but the {A-Diamonds} river allowed Bambrick to cross the 300,000-mark while Nehorayan's deep run finished on the last six tables.

Rocco Flushes Out Foutty

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Hold'em

Steve Foutty opened to 5,700 under the gun and Michael Rocco flatted on the button. A {6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop fanned out and Foutty continued for 9,000. Rocco called and the {j-Diamonds} peeled off on the turn.

Foutty shoved for about 45,000 and Rocco snap-called.

Steve Foutty: {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Michael Rocco: {k-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

Foutty was drawing dead and the {9-Clubs} on the river secured his elimination.

Meanwhile, at the same table, Daniel Negreanu is also chipping up nicely.

Bambrick Busts McAlpin

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

PLO

Ryan Bambrick opened the button and Christina McAlpin three-bet in the big blind. McAlpin had only around 35,000 total and Bambrick thought for a while before setting her all in. She called, declaring that she didn't have a very good hand.

Bambrick: {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
McAlpin: {A-Spades}{2-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

Bambrick was ahead with queens but the {2-Hearts}{6-Spades}{9-Spades} flop pushed McAlpin way out front with top two and a flush draw. Unfortunately for McAlpin, the turn fell the {Q-Clubs} to shift the odds back and she bricked out on the {4-Clubs} river.
