Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Adam Owen
Adam Owen

Seven Card Stud Eight or Better

With a short stack and the dealers choice button in front of him, Adam Owen selected Seven Card Stud Eight or Better, which ultimately brought his downfall.

Owen put in his last 4,500 on third street with the {3-Hearts} in the door versus Brian Rast.

Rast's final board read {k-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{4-Clubs}{6-Spades} for two pair, kings and fours.

Owen's hand was quickly mucked and he walked away from the table as his remaining chips were pushed to Rast.

Negreanu Vanishes Early On

Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu was spotted on the way out of the tournament area, recording for his vlog on the phone and mentioning that he had busted. According to his former table mates, Jon Turner had taken most of Negreanu's chips in Limit Omaha High and the remainder of his stack then vanished in a Badugi hand.

Turner gave away most of the chips to Joshua Rhodes thereafter, who appears to be the current chip leader.

Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Ted Forrest and Ryan Hughes each committed 17,500 before the first draw, with Hughes drawing one in the small blind and Forrest drawing two on the button.

After the draw, Hughes moved all-in for Forrest's last 22,500, which Forrest called.

Hughes patted, while Forrest drew one.

Forrest needed to draw again and didn't make anything that could beat Hughes' {9-}{8-}{6-}{5-}{3-}.

After taking an early hit, Hughes' stack grew to over 120,000 with the win.

Pokrivnak Eliminated by Glantz

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Razz

Matt Glantz made an eighty-seven in Razz as the cards were already mashed together. That killed the sweat for table neighbour Andrew Pokrivnak as he was drawing dead and flipped over all of his cards. "It was fun guys, good luck," Pokrivnak said on the way out as the table broke right after.
