Steinberg Bursts the Bubble

Level 19 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Alan Steinberg was all in with an extreme short stack on the flop of {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} and up against Michael Lipner, Amanda Seminoff, and Brian Kooyman.

All three players checked the {3-Clubs} turn. "Six," Steinberg pleaded as the dealer turned over the {10-Clubs} river.

"Close," a tablemate said.

Kooyman showed {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for a pair of tens but Seminoff had {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} for the straight.

"Somebody had to have an ace," Steinberg said before showing {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and making his exit.

The remaining 79 players are now in the money.

Pike Reels One In With Kings

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Gordon Pike raised from the button and called when Christopher Benoit re-raised for the last of his chips.

Benoit had {j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, but he was in big trouble against the {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts} of Pike. The {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop gave Benoit a straight draw, but he improved no further as the board ran out {3-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and was eliminated just short of the money.

Robert Campbell

Roy Sanam raised under the gun and Robert Campbell called in the big blind.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and Campbell check-called a bet from Sanam.

The {k-Clubs} hit the turn and Campbell instantly put in a bet and Sanam called.

The {3-Diamonds} completed the board and Campbell bet again and Sanam wasted no time calling. Campbell tabled {q-Spades}{j-Hearts} for a straight on the turn and Sanam tapped the table to show respect for the good hand. Sanam tabled {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} for a pair of kings and a busted royal flush draw as the pot got shipped to Campbell.

Kim Misreads the Board, Still Wins

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Gordon Pike raised pre-flop before Dennis Kim re-raised from the cutoff. Pike called to see the {j-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{k-Spades} flop, then called another bet from Kim.

Both players checked the {k-Hearts} turn before Pike led out on the {9-Diamonds} river. Kim quickly called.

Pike showed {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for two pair, queens and jacks. "I misread the board. I would've raised," Kim said before turning over {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} for trip kings.

"I spaced out. I was thinking too much," Kim added before collecting the pot.
