Chamorro Hits Quad Kings

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 24,000 ante
Sebastien Chamorro
Sebastien Chamorro

When an opponent with around 440,000 moved all-in preflop, big blind Sebastian Chamorro at first appeared to think he'd been given a walk, but immediately called when he saw the bet, tabling {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}. His opponent held {a-Spades}{4-Clubs} and flopped an ace - but Chamorro both flopped and turned a king for quads.

"Yes!" he said, "Oh my God. Oh my God!" and proceeded to express similar excitement to his neighbour in French.

Dominating Hand Stays Ahead for Moore

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 24,000 ante

Megan Moore has busted an opponent with a stack close to hers, securing, when the blinds and ante are taken into account, a full double up. An under the gun opponent moved all in for 330,000, called by Moore on the button. Moore's {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} dominated her opponent's {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs} but there was a sweat on the turn, as the board stood {2-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Spades}{10-Clubs}. Moore said, "Hold!" and did so as the river came down the {5-Spades}.

Jones in a Massive Pot

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 24,000 ante

A player under the gun went all in for 165,000 and got three calls, a player in middle position, the button and Craig Jones in the small blind, which created a side pot.

The flop was {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{q-Clubs} and Jones moved all-in, the player in middle position folded but the button made the call putting Jones at risk for his tournament life as well.

Craig Jones: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}
Opponent: {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}

The board ran out {8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} and with that Jones eliminated a player and nearly tripled up in chips.

Wisehart Busts Thibodaux

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 24,000 ante

A table move around Level 2 has been good for Butch Wisehart. The most recent boost to his stack came courtesy of an all-in preflop flip against shorter stacked Joshua Thibodaux.

Thibodaux: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Wisehart: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

The board ran out {5-Spades}{j-Hearts}{4-Hearts}...{6-Diamonds}...{q-Diamonds}, pairing Wisehart's queen to bust his opponent, who seemed unfazed.

"Good playing with you all," he said as he waited to be escorted to the cash desk. "Good luck."

Erik Seidel Eliminated in Four-Way Clash

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Erik Seidel

While all remaining tables were already on their 45-minute break, a long hand played out on one of the tables near the rail, drawing a sizable crowd as eight-time bracelet winner Erik Seidel was involved in the action.

It was Jose Preciado who opened up with a raise to 50,000. Erik Seidel called all in for his final 27,000, Dave Alfa called, and Ken Saito called as well. All players quickly tapped the table on the {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop.

Saito, having just 48,000 behind, shoved all in when the turn came the {8-Diamonds}. Preciado called, while Alfa pitched his cards in the muck. With two players at risk and no more action, the three hands were on their backs.

Erik Seidel: {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Ken Saito: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
Jose Preciado: {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Saito was ahead with two pair sevens and eights while Seidel needed a non-diamond deuce to save his tournament life. The river, however, brought the {10-Hearts} to pair Preciado's ten for a bigger two pair and give him the double-knockout.
