Platt Plays it to River

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Jeff Platt
Jeff Platt

Diogo Veiga bet 25,000 from the cutoff on a flop of {a-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{9-Hearts}, and Jeff Platt called from late position.

The {6-Hearts} turn completed a possible flush, and Platt checked it to Veiga on his left. Following suit, Veiga checked as well.

On the river {7-Diamonds}, Platt announced a raise to 31,000, that almost sounded like he was commentating on it.

Veiga looked over at Platt, before dropping his cards face down in the middle, and Platt won without showdown.

Eychenne Busts Right on the Bubble

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

There was 65,000 in the middle on a completed board of {2-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{k-Spades}{10-Hearts} and Thomas Eychenne was facing a bet of 100,000 from Barry Hutter, enough to put him all in.

Eychenne was in the tank, hoping the bubble would burst. He heard what he thought was the final player bursting from the bubble, and he called.

Hutter turned over {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} and Eychenne's {j-Clubs}{j-Clubs} was beaten, unfortunately, it seemed the tournament did indeed need to lose one more player and he appeared to be it.

All remaining players are now in the money.

Lang's Lead Lengthens

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Michael Lang
Michael Lang

We picked up action with Michael Lang calling the all in bet of a player at risk on the button, with three cards {j-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{10-Spades} displayed across the felt. Lang had his challenger covered by a strong margin, and the cards we flipped for all to see.

Button: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}
Michael Lang: {8-Spades}{9-Spades}

The button pushed with top pair and best kicker, but Lang was open-ended for the straight.

It was a shock to the button, when the {7-Diamonds} fell on the turn, giving Lang the best possible hand. After the {3-Hearts} came on the river it was official that Lang became your current chip leader, and another player was eliminated after the bubble burst.

Kuo Cracks Jacks

Jesse Solano was in late position and pushed all in for 86,000. Kitty Kuo was in middle position and called.

Jesse Solano: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Kitty Kuo: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

It was a classic race, and after the flop of {7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{10-Spades} Solano was in the lead with top pair and ready for a double.

Kuo spiked the {a-Spades} on the turn, and the lead shifted towards her, with Solano standing up immediately.

The dealer barely set down the {3-Hearts} when Solano was already walking to the payout desk, having been eliminated by Kuo.

Liu Amassing a Stack

JJ Liu
JJ Liu

JJ Liu opened to 16,000 and only Nick Schulman came along to the {5-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} flop.

Liu led for another 15,000 and Schulman folded.

That takes the Women In Poker Hall of Fame member up past 600,000 as we get into the later levels of the night.
