Chips for Cole

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

A player in early position raised to 1,500 and was called by Benjamin Cole on the button and the player in the big blind.

The {3-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{k-Spades} appeared on the flop and the original raiser continued for 1,800. He was called only by Cole.

The turn card was the {6-Spades}. The original raiser led again with a bet of 2,700 but he was met with a three-bet from Cole to 7,700. His opponent called.

Cole sized up to 16,000 on the {7-Diamonds} river. His opponent shuffled his chips but ultimately folded.

Tymoshenko Doesn't Convince Zack

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Artem Tymoshenko raised to 1,500 from under the gun and was called by Yiming Cao. Dan Zack, in middle position, then three-bet to 5,500 and Tymoshenko called.

Cao got out of the way as the flop came {3-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Tymoshenko checked and Zack continued for 5,000. Tymoshenko called. On the {3-Diamonds} turn, Zack bet another 12,000 and Tymoshenko again came along.

When the {j-Hearts} fell on the river, Tymoshenko let out a deep sigh and began shaking his head. He sat back in his chair before reaching for chips and betting 16,600. Zack, unconvinced by Tymoshenko's acting, called but mucked when Tymoshenko showed {j-Clubs}{j-Spades} for the rivered full house.

Cao claimed he folded pocket deuces and would've flopped a set if he called preflop.

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

There was heads-up action after a {7-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Spades} flop between Kenny Tran from the hijack and Denise Pratt from the button.

Tran check-called the 3,400 bet from Pratt and both players checked the {3-Diamonds} turn to the {j-Spades} river.

Tran led out for 10,000 and Pratt quickly folded her hand. After some table batter, Tran quickly showed {6-Spades}{3-Spades} then collected the pot.

Decalo Takes a Chunk From Mizrachi

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Robert Mizrachi bet a three-way turn of {j-Clubs}{10-Spades}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades} for 3,200 and was called only by Niv Decalo from one seat over. Another bet worth 7,800 by Mizrachi followed on the {7-Clubs} river and Decalo then opted for a raise to 20,000. Mizrachi mulled over his decision for just 15 seconds and then called.

Decalo rolled over the {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for the nut flush to claim the pot and pull narrowly ahead of Mizrachi.

Nerney Takes Big Chunk Out of Adams

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Brandon Adams raised to 1,500 from middle position and the button called while the small blind came along. Brian Nerney also came along from the big blind to make it a four-way pot.

The flop was {6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. The blinds checked and Adams continued for 4,200. All three players called.

The turn was {8-Spades}. The small blind checked and Nerney bet 12,000. Adams called and the button folded while the small blind came along.

The river was {5-Clubs}. Nerney fired 39,400 and Adams shoved with everyone covered. The small blind folded and Nerney called for this last 58,800.

Adams turned over {q-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for the straight, but Nerney tabled {9-Hearts}{7-Spades} for a higher straight to take a pot that more than doubles his chip count.

Elias Thankful for Lady Luck

Darren Elias

Darren Elias open-jammed for his last 6,000 from middle position and was called by the button.

Darren Elias: {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

Elias was behind holding live cards and a ten appeared in the window on the {7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop.

The {k-Hearts} turn made things very suspenseful for Elias as it left him needing a queen or ten and luckily for him, the {q-Diamonds} fell on the river keeping his Main Event hopes alive.
