Seidel Chops With Reixach

Level 7 : 0/0, 800 ante

Erik Seidel jammed his short stack with the {k-Spades}{9-Spades} and was looked up by Sergi Reixach with the {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. The board came {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} and they chopped it up as the kicker didn't play any decisive role.

Right after the hand was done, Adam Owen walked into the tournament area and boosted the field to 57 entries.

Nakanishi Scores a Double

Level 8 : 0/0, 1,000 ante

Shota Nakanishi got his stack of 50,800 in before the flop with the {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds} and Dustin Dirksen looked him up with the {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. The board ran out {k-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and the aces held for Nakanishi to double. However, Dirksen then doubled the next hand.

Daniel Negreanu joined the action on the same table right after that hand had concluded.

A Double for van Krevelen

Level 8 : 0/0, 1,000 ante

Dario Sammartino folded to a large bet by Stephen Chidwick on the {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{6-Clubs} board and then jammed over the top of a shove by table short stack Rene van Krevelen one hand later,

Rene van Krevelen: {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Dario Sammartino: {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

The Dutchman got there thanks to the {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{9-Clubs} board as Sammartino lost another chunk of his stack.

Negreanu Loses a Fair Fight

Level 8 : 0/0, 1,000 ante

Ben Yu got it in for 16,000 and was looked up by Shota Nakanishi, who then also called the shove of Daniel Negreanu for little more.

Ben Yu: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Daniel Negreanu: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Shota Nakanishi: {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}

Negreanu recorded the action for his vlog and immediately said "okay, that's the first flip and it's a fair fight."

The best hand preflop held thanks to the {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{7-Hearts} board as Negreanu redeemed an add-on chip.

Negreanu Loses all the Flips

Level 8 : 0/0, 1,000 ante
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu lost his second stack with {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts} against {k-Clubs}{10-Spades} when the board ran out {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{j-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}.

He then got it in with the {k-Spades}{10-Diamonds} against Dustin Dirksen with the {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}. Commentating for his vlog, he said "we need a ten." He spiked two of them on the {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop.

"Now we need to avoid a jack," he continued and he did that on the {8-Hearts} turn. However, the {j-Clubs} followed on the river and Dirksen improved to jacks full of tens.

Negreanu will likely re-enter soon again.

A Four-Way and a Three-Way All-In

Level 8 : 0/0, 1,000 ante
Cary Katz
Cary Katz

As the madness in the last level carries on, table 437 featured a four-way and a three-way all-in in quick succession.

Cary Katz: {8-Spades}{7-Spades}
Zachary Milchman: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Dan Zack: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Young Ko: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The board came {k-Spades}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and Ko swept it all with kings full of tens. Zack and Katz had an add-on to redeem while Milchman was eliminated.

Up next, Ryan Laplante was all-in for 16,600 and Katz invested his final bullet, once again getting called by Ko.

Ryan Laplante: {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Cary Katz: {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Young Ko: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

This time, it was Laplante who tripled on the {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{10-Spades}{10-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} board as Katz was eliminated by Ko in the small side pot.

Four Tables Remain Once More

Level 8 : 0/0, 1,000 ante

Soon after his triple up, Ryan Laplante was eliminated and that brought his former table down to just three players as they waited for new contenders to arrive. Another table was also down to three as Bart Lybaert vanished, leaving Moshe Gabay, Dan Shak and Chance Kornuth in the same waiting loop.

Dario Sammartino was also eliminated very recently as he ran out of add-ons to redeem. The late night madness reduced the field down to 20 players as Daniel Negreanu jumped back into the action.

Zero Out of Five for Negreanu

Level 8 : 0/0, 1,000 ante

Daniel Negreanu got it in from the cutoff with the {k-Spades}{7-Hearts} and Jason Koon looked him up with the {k-Hearts}{q-Spades} on the button. After the {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} flop, Negreanu asked for a chop and was happy when the {q-Hearts} appeared on the turn. However, it was followed by the {q-Diamonds} river and Koon made a full house.

Seth Davies then doubled through Koon with {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} versus {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs} before Negreanu got it in against Koon once more.

Daniel Negreanu: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Jason Koon: {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The board came {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{7-Spades}{q-Hearts}{j-Hearts} and Koon paired up on the turn. "Okay, we are zero for five. This is stupid," Negreanu laughed while recording for his vlog. One final stack remains for the six-time WSOP bracelet winner.
