Ace On The River

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

There was three-way all in preflop action between Peter Giordano, Bob Buckenmayer and Michael Halford, with Halford having more chips than Buckenmayer but both were at risk.

Bob Buckenmayer: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Peter Giordano: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Michael Halford: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

The {j-Spades}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop was good for Giordano as he just needed to dodge an ace.

The turn came the {5-Spades} and Giordano just had one more card to come before he had a double elimination.

But, the {a-Diamonds} fell on the river giving Buckenmayer a triple up with top two-pair, and Giordano shipped 17,700 to Halford.

Heart Still Pounding for Joseph

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

"I should go on break early," said Timothy Joseph stacking his chips. "My heart's still pounding!"

Joseph had moved up to 300,000 after calling an opponent's raise pre-flop and calling his shove for 80,000 on a low flop. His opponent held sevens and they were no match for Joseph's queens which held to move him up the chip counts.

Joseph, who hails from Vegas, came into the day with 160,000 chips and has almost doubled his stack two levels into the day.
