Corey "bluehoodie" Hochman Eliminated in 27th Place ($35,194)

Level 27 : 20,000/40,000, 4,000 ante
Corey Hochman
Corey Hochman

Stephen "tonystarsgfk" Graner raised to 80,000 from early position. Corey "bluehoodie" Hochman went all in for 667,615 from the small blind, Graner called when it was folded back to him.

Hochman was at risk holding the {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} against the {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}. He would need serious help to survive.

Instead of help he received a quick end as the flop came {8-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{a-Spades} to give Graner quads and wrap things up. The {9-Clubs} turn and the {k-Clubs} river were meaningless as Hochman was eliminated.

Hagerty Makes Ace High Call

Level 28 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Ryan "Hagzzz021" Hagerty raised to 100,000 from the cutoff. Anthony "nowb3athat" Spinella defended in the big blind.

The flop came {q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. Hagerty bet 54,666 and was called by Spinella.

The turn was the {7-Clubs} and both players checked.

The river came the {10-Hearts}. Spinella bet 265,000 into a pot of 379,332. Hagerty thought a couple of moments before calling.

Spinella showed nothing with the {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and Hagerty showed the {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for the ace high call and added more chips to his chip lead.

Don't Miss the Feature "WSOP History: An Oral History of ChipTic"

Level 28 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
ChipTic
ChipTic

At the 2012 World Series of Poker, a shiny new product received its public unveiling. Players and fans the world over were introduced to a program with revolutionary potential. It could track the chip ebbs and flows of every player in a tournament while also serving as the back end operating system to run said tournament. It promised the ability to change the way poker tournaments were followed, with players and fans interacting at the stroke of a few keys.

That product was ChipTic. And it proved to be a colossal failure.

This is the two-part oral history of ChipTic, from those who experienced it first-hand and witnessed that failure — three former employees, two members of WSOP staff, and two poker media members who watched it implode.

Justin "cheersfive" Liberto raised to 431,111 under the gun and left himself just 1,517 back. Vikanty "v4victoria" Shegal then three-bet jam for 1,073,724 next to act and action then folded to Ye "YUAN365" Yuan in the big blind .to say he liked what he looked down at would be an understatement as he quickly jammed over the top, which prompted Liberto to call off what little he had back.

Justin "cheersfive" Liberto: {q-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Vikanty "vforvictoria" Shegal: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}
Ye "YUAN365" Yuan: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

Yuan had the best hand and it got even stronger on the {a-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} flop. Neither the {2-Spades} turn nor {9-Clubs} river changed a thing and Yuan scored the double knockout.

Level 29 : 30,000/60,000, 6,000 ante

Shortly after Tyler "MichUltra" Cornell was eliminated in 24th place , Taylor "ZeroTo100" Von Kriegenbergh was also taken out when he shoved over a preflop raise of Stephen "tonystarsgfk" Graner for 1,130,723 and was called.

Von Kriegenbergh was at risk holding the {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs} against the {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} of Graner.

The flop came {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades} to make things bleak for Von Kriegenbergh. The {7-Spades} on the turn and the {k-Spades} on the river confirmed his elimination in 23rd place.
