Double Knockout for Zack in Dramatic Fashion

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Adam Hendrix
Adam Hendrix

Three players were eliminated at almost the same time and two of them were ousted in an astonishing showdown.

Tim Grau was the first to depart and at the same time, a single-raised three-way pot lead to the {7-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop. The action checked to Adam Hendrix who jammed for 92,000 in the cutoff and he was called by Daniel Zack from under the gun. John Racener then raised the pot in the hijack, Zack moved all-in and Racener called for more than 600,000.

Adam Hendrix: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
John Racener: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Daniel Zack: {3-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{2-Spades}

Zack was shocked when he found himself with the bottom two sets up against Racener's top set. Hendrix had a lot of equity against that as he had the nut flush draw and gutshot wheel draw. He spiked the {q-Hearts} turn but the {3-Diamonds} river gave Zack quads to score the double knockout.

Krasienko Eliminates Wong

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Mike Krasienko was in a limped pot with Brandon Wong, and both players checked the {k-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop. Krasienko checked the {10-Spades} turn and Wong bet the pot. Krasienko then check-raised enough to put Wong all in, and Wong called.

Brandon Wong: {9-}{8-}{7-}{6-}
Mike Krasienko: {k-}{j-Spades}{10-}{2-Spades}

Krasienko had the hand locked up with a flush to Wong's straight draw, with an irrelevant {7-} on the river eliminating Wong in 31st place.

Elezra Dents the Wall

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Jonathan Witz's huge wall of chips has been shrunk first by a color-up of his huge pile of orange 5,000 chips, and now by a pot with Eli Elezra.

On a turn board of {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{j-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, Witz bet 120,000 and Elezra called.

The action checked through on the {a-Diamonds} river, and Elezra showed {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Clubs}, as his top pair and flush draw turned into a winning top two-pair.

Matusow Under A Million

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Just after sending his stack over the million chip mark, Mike Matusow gave a chunk back in a cooler versus Daniel Zack.

With over 150,000 in the middle already on a river board reading {9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{10-Spades}, Matusow faced a bet of 140,000 from Zack.

Matusow begrudgingly flicked in a calling chip and Zack showed him the last ten in the deck with {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}.

"Only hand I lose to," said Matusow.

"I'm allowed to lose that one, it's okay. I was having too much fun there for a while"

Grau Doubles Through Spurlin

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The cards were already flipped over as Tim Grau ended up at risk for 143,000 with the {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. Jordan Spurlin looked him up with the {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades} and the {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{7-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{j-Spades} board gave Grau broadway on turn and river.

Matusow Over A Million

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Mike Matusow has been steadily chipping up since the dinner break and just crossed the one million chip mark in a big hand with John Racener.

On the flop of {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Spades}, Matusow check-called a Racener bet of 45,000 to see a turn of the {3-Clubs}, Again Matusow checked, and this time he faced a bet of 115,000. Matusow cut out the chips and slid them forward.

The river brought the {q-Clubs}, and again Matusow checked. This time Racener checked behind, and Matusow declared "ace-queen", as he showed {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, as his straight draw turned into top two pair and earned him the pot.
