1,203rd - 1,225th Place Finishers

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

$15,000 payday for these finishers.

Louer's Aces Cracked

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

It only took a couple of preflop raises until Todd Louer found himself all in for around 100,000 chips. His opponent was Johann Ibanez and both players turned over premium hands.

Todd Louer: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Johann Ibanez: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The flop of {j-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs} was exactly what Louer was looking for to keep his aces out front. However, the turn brought the {k-Diamonds} to give Ibanez a set of kings and stranglehold on the hand. The river was the {q-Diamonds} and Louer was eliminated early on Day 4.

Thibodeau's Set Gets Double Up

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Three players saw a board of {10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}. Pin Jiang bet 52,000 into his two opponents and he was raised all in by Jacob Thibodeau. The third player in the hand thought about their decision for quite a while before eventually electing to bow out, leaving Jiang with a big decision of his own to make.

After a few moments, Jiang called. But he got the bad news as Thibodeau flipped over the {9-Spades}{9-Clubs} for a set while Jiang could only muster the {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} for top pair. The third player in the hand claimed that he folded king-queen.

The river came the {4-Hearts} and Thibodeau scored a big double up.

Patrick Serda
Patrick Serda

The action folded around to Patrick Serda in the hijack who shoved all-in for 53,000 and Harrison Gimbel snap-called in the big blind.

Harrison Gimbel: {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}
Patrick Serda: {a-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

The flop came {k-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{8-Hearts} giving Gimbel a flush draw with his ace, but then on the turn {10-Clubs} it was looking to be a chop, but unfortunately for Serda the {4-Diamonds} fell on the river giving Gimbel a pair of fours, eliminating Serda from the tournament.

Luke Martinelli: {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}

The board came {k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs} and Sturges headed to the payout desk. On the same table, two 888poker qualifiers are in action with Jason James and Mihai Manole.

They both checked through the {q-Spades}{k-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop to the {k-Diamonds} on the turn. Neilson quickly checked again and Baker fired another bet of 18,000 over the line for Neilson to fold to.
