Singer Produces Kings Up Tune to Bust Hildebrand

Level 12 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Per Hildebrand
Per Hildebrand

Per Hildebrand got all of his chips in on fourth street against David Singer and David Steicke.

Hildebrand: {x-}{x-}/{10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Singer: {x-}{x-}/{6-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Steicke: {x-}{x-}/{5-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

Singer picked up the {k-Hearts} and bet fifth, folding out Steicke with the {k-Spades}.

Hildebrand: {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}/{10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}
Singer: {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}/{6-Spades}{8-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

It was eights against nines and bad news arrived right away for Hildebrand as his situation got dire. Both hit two pair but Singer's {k-Clubs} gave him kings up against Hildebrand's {10-Hearts} for tens up. Hildebrand picked up a worthless third pair with the {4-Diamonds} on the river.

Mercier Sliding After Paying Kenney

Level 12 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Bryn Kenney called a bet on fifth street against Jason Mercier's ace-high board but came out betting on sixth and seventh when Mercier caught high cards.

Kenney: {x-}{x-}/{k-Spades}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{10-Spades}/{x-}
Mercier: {x-}{x-}/{a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}/{x-}

Mercier looked less than pleased and after about a minute of tanking and a couple of head shakes, he reluctantly tossed in some chips. Kenney showed {k-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds} for kings up and scooped it.

Douglas Eliminated by Mizrachi

Level 12 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

On fourth street, Qinghai Pan bet out and Michael Mizrachi raised. Shane Douglas called all in for 2,500, and Pan called too.

On fifth, Pan checked, and Mizrachi bet. Pan folded, and each player's board ran out as follows:

Douglas: {10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} / {2-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts} / {q-Diamonds}
Pan: {x-}{x-} / {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}{q-Hearts} (folded on fifth)
Mizrachi: {10-Clubs}{2-Clubs} / {5-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} / {2-Spades}

Mizrachi's tens up were too strong for Douglas when he was unable to improve on his pair of eights, and consequently, Douglas was eliminated.

Shack-Harris on a Nub

Level 12 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Andrey Zhigalov had two to a low on fourth and then three to a low on fifth, leading the betting against John Racener and Brandon Shack-Harris.

Zhigalov: {x-}{x-}/{4-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Racener: {x-}{x-}/{2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Shack-Harris: {x-}{x-}/{2-Clubs}{q-Spades}{2-Hearts}

Racener quickly folded to a bet but Shack-Harris only had 15,000 left.

"So sick," he muttered with a smile, thinking a couple of minutes. "Pretty sure you have a pair."

"Pair with low draw," Zhigalov said with a smile.

Shack-Harris seemed torn but finally opted to give it up and hold onto his bet and a half.
