Level 14 : 0/0, 4,000 ante
Chris Brewer
Chris Brewer

Chris Brewer put in 125,000 preflop, leaving himself with about one ante behind. Action folded to Robert Wilke as last to act, and after some thinking, he made the call.

The players got the last chips in on the {6-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} flop.

Chris Brewer: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Robert Wilke: {8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Brewer was ahead, but Wilke had pair outs and flush outs.

The turn was the {9-Hearts} to give Wilke the lead. The river {q-Hearts} kept it that way and Brewer was eliminated.

"What just happened?" Brewer asked out loud as he headed away from the table.

Elior Sion Eliminated in 9th Place ($29,712)

Level 14 : 0/0, 4,000 ante
Elior Sion
Elior Sion

Elior Sion was down to just 27,000 and moved all in from under the gun. Robert Wilke called from the cutoff and the cards were tabled.

Elior Sion: {a-Spades}{6-Spades}
Robert Wilke: {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

The board ran out {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and Sion doubled up with a pair of aces.

Sion was still the shortest stack in the tournament and just two hands later was seen getting up from his seat. A completed board of {k-}{9-}{8-}{10-}{7-} was spread out and Stephen Chidwick held {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds} for a jack-high straight to eliminate Sion.

Level 14 : 0/0, 4,000 ante
Todd Ivens
Todd Ivens

Action began on the flop in a limped pot. The board read {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}. Brian Rast bet 18,000 from middle position before Todd Ivens moved all in from the button for 39,000.

"How much is that?" asked Scott Smile. He then three-bet the flop to 107,000.

Rast also made the call, Ivens would have to beat them both to stay alive.

The turn was the {j-Spades}. Smile slowed down and checked, Rast checked behind to go all three to the river.

The final card was the {k-Diamonds}. Smile checked again. Rast thought for about a minute before betting 125,000. Smile frustratingly folded.

Ivens revealed {k-Spades}{10-Spades} for an open-ender on the flop that made top pair, but Rast showed {9-Spades}{10-Hearts} for the made straight and the winner.

Winter used a time bank before making another bet of 76,000 this time. Smile instantly called and Winter tabled {j-Spades}{8-Spades} for a missed straight flush draw. Smile showed {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} for trip nines and collected the pot.
