Chong Makes Good Call, Eliminates Jarman

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

With a pot of 30,000 on a board reading {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}, Robert Jarman moved all in for his remaining 60,000 after Wes Chong led out with a 12,000 bet. After some thinking, Chong put his chips in for the call.

Wes Chong: {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Robert Jarman: {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

With one card left to come, Chong was in the lead with top pair, though Jarman was drawing extremely live.

The river was a brick as it fell the {a-Diamonds} and Jarman was eliminated from the tournament.

Clause Chips Up Before the Bubble

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

A player opened to 7,000 before a second moved all in for 9,400. Don Clause cold-called in the small blind, and the iniital raiser also called.

The pair checked the {j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop and Clause bet 10,000 on the {q-Spades} turn, forcing his opponent out.

Don Clause: {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
All-in Player: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}

The all-in player had outs to stay alive but the {8-Clubs} was a brick and he was eliminated.

The tournament clock shows 459 players remaining with 398 paid.

Reiner's Claim to Fame

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

James Woods got his remaining stack in the middle and found a caller from Michael Reiner.

James Woods: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Michael Reiner: {q-}{q-}

Woods was trailing the pocket queens of Reiner but turned a gutterball straight that just couldn't get there as the board ran out {7-}{6-}{4-}{5-}{6-} and he was eliminated from the tournament.

Ma Doubles Through Fowleks

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Tony Ma open-jammed from the cutoff for 17,400 and he was called by Richard Fowlkes from the big blind.

Tony Ma: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Richard Fowlkes: {a-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

Ma was ahead but the {8-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} gave Fowlkes the nut flush draw.

The {7-Spades} fell on the turn and add more outs to Fowlkes hand as he could win with a flush or straight.

The river was a brick as it came the {9-Hearts} and Ma got a much needed double in hopes to capture his third WSOP gold bracelet.

Lockwood Closing in on 200,000

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

With the chip leaders hovering around 400,000, several players are beginning to make moves.

Peter Lockwood bet 8,000 on a {j-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop and an opponent raised on the button to 20,000. Lockwood took his time before calling.

The pair both checked the {8-Hearts}{a-Clubs} runout and Lockwood turned over {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}. His opponent double-checked his hole cards before mucking and Lockwood took down the pot.

Earlier this year Lockwood finished third in the $1,700 WSOP Circuit Main Event here at the Rio in February for $125,103 and will be eyeing another deep run in the Super Seniors event.

Big Slick Flushes Vandervort

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

With a board showing {q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{j-Spades} and 30,000 pot, Alan Lewis moved all in for his last 60,800 and after much deliberation, he was called by Bruce Vandervort.

Alan Lewis: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
Bruce Vandervort: {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Lewis was drawing the world and didn't have to sweat as the turn came the {9-Spades} and he got a very nice double up after the {3-Clubs} fell on the river.
