Matthew Schultz
Matthew Schultz

Limit Hold'em

Bradley Ruben raised the button, Matthew Schultz three-bet the small blind and Aditya Prasetyo then four-bet in the big blind. Ruben folded and Schultz got it in for around 60,000 with the {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Prasetyo was ahead with {a-}{j-} and that remained the case throughout the {q-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades}{k-Spades}{2-Diamonds} board as the kicker played for Prasetyo.

Level 18
Naoya Kihara
Naoya Kihara

Omaha Hi-Lo

On a flop of {k-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, Matthew Woodward vaulted out of his seat as he was the player at risk against Naoya Kihara.

Matthew Woodward: {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}
Naoya Kihara: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}

Kihara had a ton of outs to scoop and while he missed the {q-Clubs} turn, he got there with the {k-Hearts} river.

Moments later, Kevin Gerhart was eliminated in a PLO hand against Robert Mizrachi and became the next casualty.

Rapid Eliminations and Liberto on a Roll

Level 18

The field was suddenly reduced to just 36 contenders as Maria Ho mentioned how "lucky" Justin Liberto was after making a steel wheel and rolled up nines in back-to-back hands. Another table broke immediately as notables such as Alex Livingston, Adam Owen and Andrew Kelsall departed from other tables.

Henson Eliminated by Roberts

Level 17
Ray Henson
Ray Henson

Razz

Ray Henson was left short not long ago after losing a big pot and he ultimately ended up all-in on fifth street against Christian Roberts.

Ray Henson: {a-}{9-} / {3-}{8-}{2-}{3-} / {2-}
Christian Roberts: {4-}{5-} / {6-}{j-}{q-}{9-} / {7-}

Henson had a made nine until fifth but paired his trey on sixth. Roberts thought he was drawing dead to win the pot but Henson immediately said that wasn't the case. Roberts then peeled a seven for a nine-seven and Henson also paired his deuce to end up with an inferior nine-eight.

Long Takes One from McLaughlin

Pan and Kelsall Suddenly Short

Level 17

Pot-Limit Omaha

A new bigger stack emerged in Drew Scott who leaped above half a million and Qinghai Pan as well as Andrew Kelsall were suddenly left very short on his table. Scott then raised to 11,500 and Kelsall repotted to 42,500 with 9,000 behind. Pan forfeited the big blind and Scott also folded to keep Kelsall in contention for now.
