Gabrelians Eliminated by Sotiropo and Ferrari

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 700 ante

Georgios Manousos Sotiropo ({7-Diamonds}), Alex Ferrari ({k-Diamonds}), and Emin Gabrelians ({6-Hearts}) all put 12,300 in the middle which was the amount that Gabrelians had at the start of the hand.

Ferrari bet on fourth and the remaining money of him went in on fifth.

Georgios Manousos Sotiropo: {k-Spades}{8-Spades} / {7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Alex Ferrari: {k-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} / {k-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Emin Gabrelians: {a-Spades}{4-Hearts} / {6-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

The remaining two cards were dealt to each player and it turned out Gabrelians lost both the low and high end of the pot. Gabrelians ended with the {q-Hearts} and {10-Diamonds} which gave him not enough to win.

Ferrari took the high end of the pot with two pair after he caught a {4-Diamonds} and {5-Clubs} and Sotiropo won the low end with an eighty-seven low after he caught the {6-Clubs} on sixth and the {j-Clubs} on seventh.

Violette Eliminated on the Bubble

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Cyndy Violette
Cyndy Violette

Cyndy Violette was eliminated on the bubble after she got her last 3,300 in the middle against two opponents. One of them was Nicholas Kiley. They checked it down to seventh where Kiley bet and pushed the third player out of the pot.

Violette had {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{q-Hearts} in front of her but she stood up and walked away when Kiley opened up {7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades} to go with his {4-Spades}{q-Spades}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs} board for a straight.

Violette made her first cash at the World Series of Poker in 1987 at the 18th Annual World Series of Poker. She has cashed in 20 different years at the WSOP racking up an impressive $948,842 with 44 cashes. She also took down a bracelet in 2004 in a $2,000 Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better event.

Violette misses out on her 45th cash, but there is plenty left to play at the 50th Annual World Series of Poker
