Damjan Radanov Eliminated in 15th Place ($23,098)

Level 20 : 30,000/60,000, 0 ante
Damjan Radanov
Damjan Radanov

Damjan Radanov was all-in preflop, with Dustin Dirksen being the only caller.

Damjan Radanov: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Clubs}
Dustin Dirksen: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades}

Radanov was ahead on the {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{6-Spades} flop but would need to dodge his opponents flush and straight outs. The {7-Hearts} turn was a brick but the {5-Spades} river gave Dirksen the flush and confirmed Radanov's exit.

Bryce Yockey
Bryce Yockey

Bryce Yockey and Alex Livingston were the only two players to see the {9-Hearts}{k-Spades}{q-Spades} flop.

Yockey bet-called after Livingston made a raise.

The {10-Spades} turn was checked through to the {7-Diamonds} river. Yockey bet but then faced a raise.

"Come on, you did not check a flush on the turn, did you?" said Yockey before making the call.

Bryce Yockey: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Alex Livington: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

Livingston did indeed turn a flush to scoop the pot, which sealed Yockey's elimination.

Phillip Hui moved all-in for 35,000 from the hijack before Kane Kalas raised to 50,000 in the small blind. Matt Vengrin called from the big blind.

The blinds checked the flop and turn for the board to read {9-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{q-Hearts}. Kalas check-folded after Vengrin bet the river.

"Nut-flush but no low," said Vengrin, turning over his {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

"Nut flush is good," replied Hui, who then mucked his {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds} before leaving the tournament area.

Matt Woodward opened to 40,000 from the button before Daniel Zack made it 60,000 in the small blind. Woodward re-raised and Zack called.

Zack check-called bets on the flop and turn for the board to show the {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. Zack bet the river and put Woodward in an uncomfortable spot.

The very next hand, Woodward was all-in and at risk of elimination against Alex Livingston.

Matt Woodward: {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Alex Livingston: {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

Woodward's deep run came to an end following the {8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{7-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{3-Spades} runout.

Jose Paz-Gutierrez moved all in for his last 25,000 from early position. Dustin Dirksen made it 40,000 on the button and Matt Vengrin called from the big blind.

Dirksen called a bet on the {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop before the {q-Hearts} river checked through. Vengrin bet 40,000 on the {4-Spades} river and then faced a raise from his opponent.

"This is so stupid, I know you have a full house," said Vengrin, who went deep into the tank. He eventually folded and Dirksen exposed his hand.

Dirksen did not have a full house after all, but had quad queens with his {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. Jose Paz-Gutierrez exposed his {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} before heading out of the tournament area.
