Chainsaw Busts on "Another Seventy-Percenter"

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

Lou Garza opened to 1,800 from the cutoff and action folded to Allen "Chainsaw" Kessler who put in the rest of his 7,800 chips. Garza called and hands were revealed.

Allen Kessler: {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}
Lou Garza: {a-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

Kessler was ahead yet still cautious and said, "Another seventy-percenter."

The flop came {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, and the {a-Hearts} turn put him behind before the {10-Hearts} river sent him to the rail. Kessler said he had lost three hands in the tournament where he was roughly a 70% favorite, including ace-king versus ace-ten, and as a result, he will not be moving on to the next round.

Mizrachi Flips and Goes Out

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Michael Mizrachi got his remaining 10,000 or so chips all in from middle position and Robert Borick called in the hijack.

Robert Borick: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Michael Mizrachi: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

The two were flipping and Mizrachi stayed ahead on the {7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop. The {k-Diamonds} spiked the turn however, and Mizrachi started to get up from his seat and left the area as the {4-Diamonds} confirmed his demise.

Ihlamur Dents Mizrachi

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

At table #10 Osman Ihlamur raised to 1,300 from under the gun but when it got to Michael Mizrachi on the button he three-bet to 3,600. Robert Borick called from the small blind and Ihlamur completed with a call.

The flop came {2-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. The action checked to Mizrachi, he threw out a bet of 4,400. Borick folded but Ihlamur three-bet to 11,400. Mizrachi quickly called.

The turn card was the {q-Clubs}. Ihlamur checked and Mizrachi sized down with a bet of 3,300 to which he made the call.

The river was the {5-Hearts}. Ihlamur moved all-in for 10,600. Mizrachi didn't have much more in his stack and he went into the tank. He eventually let his cards go and said, "I am folding quads."

In fact, Ihlamur told PokerNews that he had pocket eights for quads and that Mizrachi let pocket kings go.
