Luu Gets "Lucky"

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Mimi Luu bet the river on the board showing {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{7-Clubs} with a big pot already in the middle of the table.

Luu's opponent moved all in, and Luu checked her cards one last time before announcing the call. "I got lucky" Luu said as she turned over {10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a straight on the river. Her opponent showed {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and headed to the payout table.

Chip Counts Approaching Dinner Break

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Little Boost for Lightbourne's Stack

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

A potential third player had already folded and Iaron Lightbourne looked up the all-in by the table short stack James Little for the following coin flip to emerge.

James Little: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Iaron Lightbourne: {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

The {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Clubs} flop left little hope for the pocket pair but the {6-Clubs} turn opened up some equity for Little with the additional gutshot. However, there was no miracle on the {3-Diamonds} river and Little headed to the payout desk as one of the top 400 finishers.

Martinez Busts Eisen and Finlayson

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Raul Martinez
Raul Martinez

Brandon Eisen raised on the button to 25,000 and Daniel Finlayson responded with a shove for 229,000 in the small blind. Raul Martinez in the big blind called and then also instantly called when Eisen pushed for more than 530,000 total.

Daniel Finlayson: {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}
Brandon Eisen: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Raul Martinez: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

"I like the deuces here," Jerod Smith said and he knows from experience what it means to get there with the inferior hand preflop on the very same table. Sure enough the deuces improved on the {9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop but Martinez regained the lead on the {8-Hearts} turn.

The board didn't pair anymore but the meaningless {q-Clubs} river also gave Martinez a set of queens on top of his flush to secure the double knockout.

Coinflips Mather in a Tournament

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Danut Chisu and Robert Mather were flipping for stacks with the latter as the player at risk and marginally covered by Chisu.

Robert Mather: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Danut Chisu: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Spades}{j-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Mather turned a set of jacks to lock up the double, leaving Chisu on fumes. Even fewer chips belong to Austin Peck, Francis Anderson and Bart Lybaert as they were all eliminated in the last few minutes.

Assorted Chip Counts

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Keating Shows the Bluff

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Alex Keating was raised to 35,000 from the small blind, and made the call in the big blind to the {k-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop.

The small blind continued for 25,000, and elected to call when Keating raised to 105,000. The action checked to Keating after the {k-Hearts} turn, and he slid out 100,000 chips. His opponent took a moment before folding, and Keating showed the table {10-Spades}{8-Spades} to take it down.

Mudireddy Cracks Aces with Ace-Ten Suited to Stay Alive

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Yashveen Mudireddy went all-in from the button for his last 169,000 and was called off by the small blind.

Yashveen Mudireddy: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Small Blind: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

Mudireddy got a lot of help on the {6-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop. He still had a chance to hit his flush after the {4-Diamonds} turn.

The player would smash the {q-Clubs} river, sending the tables into oohs and ahhs as he received a necessary double-up.

Cahill Chips Up

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Joining the action on the turn the board read {q-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Spades}{8-Spades} and Veronica Brill bet 150,000. Seamus Cahill decided to move all in for 300,000. Brill quickly decided to get out of the way by folding.

The runout was clean for the former WSOP main event champion, climbing over the million chip mark.
