Menard Misses

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Action folded around to Jeremy Menard on the button and he raised it to 275,000. After Robert McVeigh folded his small blind, Adrien Allain, who had a much bigger stack, three-bet shoved from his big blind, which sent Menard into the tank. Menard eventually made the call and the players tabled their hands.

Jeremy Menard: {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Adrien Allain: {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

Menard was ahead until the dealer spread the {3-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop, which gave Allain the second-nutflush. However, Menard wasn't drawing completely dead and could still hit the nutflush if another diamond came, which it didn't on the {k-Spades} turn or {a-Clubs} river and he was sent to the rail late on Day 3.

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Action folded to Jonathan Seltzer in late position and he raised it to 225,000, which got called by Raymond Bell from his small blind and Roman Korenev from his big blind.

After all three players checked to the turn on a board reading {q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{7-Spades}{3-Hearts}, Korenev led out for 300,000, was called by Seltzer and Bell check-folded.

On the {2-Clubs} river Korenev moved all in and was snap-called by Seltzer. The players tabled their hands and Korenev saw the bad news.

Roman Korenev: {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Jonathan Seltzer: {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Roster Eliminates Uzunov

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Kevin "Racks" Roster raised preflop and was called by Ivan Uzunov. The flop came {5-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{5-Spades}. Roster made a bet of 175,000 which Uzunov considered for a while before raising all in which Roster called quickly. Uzunov was in trouble holding the {j-Diamonds}{10-} against the {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} over pair of Roster.

The board ran out safe for Roster when it came the {4-Spades} and the {5-Diamonds}.

Daluz Done In By Quads

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

After Ramiro Petrone raised it up to 180,000 from the hijack, Ricardo Daluz then three-bet shoved his remaining short stack from the button and was called by Petrone.

Ricardo Daluz: {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Ramiro Petrone: {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}

The {9-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop was a good one for Daluz, but the{6-Diamonds} on the turn sealed his fate and the {6-Hearts} on the river almost seemed like overkill.

King Eliminated; Futterman Doubles

Nearby, Nika Futterman doubled up when her {a-}{8-} found two pair when the board run out incuded an ace and an eight. She did a brief victory dance near the table as the new chips were shipped her way.
