Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Men Nguyen

Jeffrey Sigmund was faced with a bet for his last 6,500 on seventh street, with his board showing {a-Spades}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{q-Hearts}, and his opponent Josh Damm showing {2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Sigmund eventually called, and Damm said, "Aces-up," showing {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{a-Clubs}. Sigmund turned over {q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Spades} for queens-up, and hit the rail.

At the same time, Men Nguyen was seen leaving the tournament area, and Michael Mizrachi now sits with around 260,000.

Turner Makes an Amazing Call

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Paul Sokoloff: {x-}{x-}/{a-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{10-Spades}/{x-}
Jon Turner: {x-}{x-}/{a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{q-Hearts}/{x-}
Michael Noori: {x-}{x-}/{2-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}/{x-}

There was already 84,000 in the pot going into seventh street, where Noori bet and Sokoloff called. Turner tanked for about a minute before making a reluctant call. Noori showed {2-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{7-Spades} for a seven-low, and Sokoloff turned over {8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} for a better seven-low. Turner said, "Pair of fives," and showed {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for just a pair of fives, which was good for the high and half the pot, while Sokoloff won the low and Noori was left short.
