Wisbrod Ousted by Parssinen

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Barak Wisbrod got his 93,000 chips in preflop against Eelis Parssinen.

Barak Wisbrod: {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}
Eelis Parssinen: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

Wisbrod brought out a dollar bill he claimed was his "lucky bill", before Parssinen jokingly snatched it from him saying, "I need this one!"

The {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{2-Spades} came on the flop and the {6-Diamonds} left Wisbrod looking for a four. The river was close but the {5-Hearts} wasn't going to do it as Wisbrod exited the tournament area.

Joao Vieira
Joao Vieira

On a {j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Spades} flop with about 70,000 in the pot, Joao Vieira was in the big blind and check-called a 32,000 bet by Vojtech Ruzicka in the hijack.

Vieira checked the {4-Clubs} turn and Ruzicka jammed for Vieira's effective stack of about 170,000. Vieira pondered for several minutes before the clock was called. Before the tournament director got to the five-second countdown, Vieira put in the chips.

Joao Vieira: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Vojtech Ruzicka: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Vieira was in rough shape and needed a jack, or a ten for a chop, but the {a-Diamonds} completed the board to send him to the payout desk.

Sam Grafton was in position in a heads-up pot against Ben Diebold on a board reading {3-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Diebold bet 35,000 and Grafton raised to 120,000 with about 45,000 behind.

Diebold raised to put Grafton all-in and at risk on the money bubble. Grafton called as players and camera crews gathered around the table.

Ben Diebold: {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
