Murilo Suoza: {10-}{6-} / {7-}{k-}{2-}{6-} / {10-}

Murilo Souza completed and his neighbor Chris Vitch pushed in a raise. Souza called and Vitch bet all the way through fifth where Souza called for his remaining 1,000 chip. Souza found himself drawing dead on sixth as Vitch pulled in the pot with his {10-}{5-}{4-}{3-}{2-}, eliminating the Brazilian in 16th place.

Rubinstein Wins a Massive Three-Way Pot in O8

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante
Donny Rubinstein
Donny Rubinstein

Omaha Hi-Lo

With two bets invested preflop, Donny Rubinstein, John Trumbul, and Maria Souza made it to the {9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} flop. Rubinstein checked from the small blind and Trumbul fired from the cutoff. Souza raised on his left and Rubinstein made it three bets. Both of his opponents called.

Rubinstein bet on {q-Diamonds} and he received two calls. The {2-Hearts} completed the board and Rubinstein fired one more time. Trumbul took a while and then slid in calling chips and then it was time for Souza to process the situation. He eventually called as well.

Rubinstein turned up {a-Spades}{q-Spades}{j-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for the second nut straight and scooped the whole pot as both Trumbul and Souza mucked. Souza asked Trumbul what he had held and Trumbul claimed that he had a set of tens.

Both players checked and Bronstein tabled {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs} for a full house. Bjorin quickly mucked, shipping a pot to Bronstein.

Vitch Quartered by Deuces

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

Chris Vitch raised on the button and Philip Long called in the big blind. Vitch barreled on the flop and turn of the {7-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{10-Spades} board and they checked the river. Long showed {j-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}, hoping to get the full low half with the nut low but he found himself taking even more. Vitch failed to make a pair and his only right for the slice of the pot was through the low as he showed {8-Clubs}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}. Long scooped three-quarters and increased his stack to about 700,000.

NLH

John Evans opened to 16,000 from the button and Toby Lewis defended his big blind. The dealer fanned out {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} as a flop and Lewis checked.

Evans pushed in 25,000 and Lewis quickly check-raised to 90,000. Evans moved enough chips into the middle to put Lewis all in and he elected to call.

Evans turned over {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for a pair of bullets and Lewis tabled {10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, giving him a flush draw. An {8-Hearts} peeled on the turn and Lewis now added a straight draw to his list of outs.

The {9-Diamonds} failed to improve the hand of Lewis as he was eliminated by the two pair of Evans.

Tryba Doubles Before Break

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

2-7 Triple Draw

In a blind-versus-blind battle, Chris Tryba and Toby Lewis went to the first draw in a raised pot. Both players peeled two and Tryba bet. Lewis called and they both took one on the second draw.

"Whoo, we've got a fair fight," Tryba said.

The betting round was checked and they again drew one. Tryba fired one more bet, leaving himself with about 10,000 or so. Lewis called and Tryba showed he caught an eighty-seven, turning up {8-}{7-}{5-}{3-}{2-} to secure almost a full double.
