Level 27 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Kenny Smaron
Kenny Smaron

Ian Pelz opened to 225,000 from under the gun and Kenny Smaron three-bet shoved all in for 1,570,000 in the cutoff. The action was back on Pelz who confirmed the count before making the call.

Ian Pelz: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Kenny Smaron: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

The flop of {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades} left Pelz in the lead with his pair of jacks. The {10-Hearts} on the turn gave Smaron a couple of more outs but the {8-Hearts} on the river bricked off as he was eliminated.

Alan Goehring Eliminated in 93rd Place ($69,636)

Level 27 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Alan Goehring
Alan Goehring

After losing a big all-in pot to David Patterson to drop to a few hundred thousand, Alan Goehring got the last of it in three ways and {5-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{3-Spades} flopped. Luke Graham bet into the side pot and to fold out the third player and showed {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. Goehring had been out-flopped with {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} and missed backdoor spades as it ran out with a {j-Spades} turn and {a-Diamonds} river.

Apparently, Goehring had mistakenly exposed his cards preflop, according to an observer who saw the action.

Colpoys Cracks Auzoux's Aces to Double

Level 27 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Timothy Su raised to 220,000 from early position and Gregoire Auzoux three-bet to 675,000 next to act. From the button, Dan Colpoys shoved all in for 1,985,000.

The blinds folded, as did Su, and Auzoux snap-called.

Colpoys: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Auzoux: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}

With Colpoys at risk, he would see the {q-Hearts} appear in the window before the full board completed {q-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} to collect a double after cracking Auzoux's aces.

Three-Way All In Leaves Brinkley on the Brink

Level 27 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

There was a huge three-way all in taking place on Table 458 and the cards were already on their backs. Christopher Barton was the shortest stack with 1,745,000 while Jesse Vilchez started the hand with 3,420,000. Andrew Brinkley was the third player in the hand and had both players covered.

Christopher Barton: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Jesse Vilchez: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Andrew Brinkley: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and Barton scooped the main pot and a triple up with a full house. Vilchez's pocket queens were good enough to take down the side pot and Brinkley was left with just under 300,000 chips.

Level 27 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Martin Huk raised to 225,000 in middle position and Laurids Nielsen called from a couple of seats over. On the button, Luke Graham made it 700,000. Both Huk and Nielsen continued to the {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{k-Clubs} flop. Action checked to Graham and he bet 1 million. Only Nielsen called. Nielsen checked the {4-Diamonds} and then called a bet of 1.4 million. Both players checked the {7-Spades} and Nielsen opened {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. He pumped his fist when Graham acknowledged it was good.

Robert Heidorn: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Level 27 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

David Guay raised to 225,000 from under the gun and Jiwoon Kim called in the cutoff, as did Nicholas Marchington from the big blind.

The {q-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{8-Clubs} board checked through to the river where Guay bet 575,000 and Kim called. Marchington folded.

Guay tabled his {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}, and Kim his {q-Spades}{j-Hearts}, and the pot was chopped up.

Heidorn Adds More Chips

Level 27 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

The board read {5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} with more around 1,500,000 in the middle already. Kevin Unkel checked in the big blind and so did Robert Heidorn in the cutoff. Unkel tabled {a-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for the missed wheel to play the pair of sevens on the board and was bested by Heidorn who held {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for the turned trips sevens which became a straight on the river to scoop the pot.

Pavlin Karakikov Eliminated in 96th Place ($69,636)

Level 27 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Pavlin Karakikov
Pavlin Karakikov

Daniel Colpoys raised to 200,000 in middle position and Pavlin Karakikov pushed all in for 1,265,000 on his left. Christopher Wynkoop re-shoved all in on the button and the rest of the table folded.

Christopher Wynkoop: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Pavlin Karakikov: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

Wynkoop had the stronger of the two pairs and the flop of {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades} was no help for Karakikov. The {10-Diamonds} on the turn left him drawing to two outs and the {4-Diamonds} on the river was not one of them.
