Andrew Brown Eliminated in 18th Place ($6,835)

Level 22
Andrew Brown
Andrew Brown

Stud 8 or Better

Perry Friedman: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}
Andrew Brown: {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{x-}

After his stack was repeatedly decimated by Yarron Bendor in the last Stud round, Andrew Brown got his last 100,000 chips in against Perry Friedman.

By the time seventh street arrived, Brown had four to a straight and four to a low that could potentially keep him alive, but after looking at his final card, he tossed it into the muck and wished the table luck as he departed for the payout desk.

John Bunch Eliminated in 19th Place ($6,835)

Level 22
John Bunch
John Bunch

Stud 8 or Better

John Bunch: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}/{3-Spades}{4-Clubs}{5-Spades}{10-Spades}/{a-Clubs}
Yarron Bendor: {7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}/{a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{6-Spades}/{10-Diamonds}

Yarron Bendor's Stud heater continued as he recently got the last of John Bunch's chips to add to his growing stack.

Bunch's last chips went in on fifth street, holding ace-high and four to a wheel, while Bendor held a pair of threes.

Sixth street gave Berndor a low draw, while the {10-Spades} gave Bunch a flush draw.

Bendor then drew a second ten on seventh to give him two pair, while Bunch squeezed the {a-Clubs}, which left him with just aces when he needed to make a low, flush, or wheel to save himself from a trip to the payout desk.

Bendor Keeps Getting There Against Brown

Level 22
Yarron Bendor
Yarron Bendor

Stud

Yarron Bendor: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}/{k-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{7-Hearts}/{9-Spades}
Andrew Brown: {q-}{k-}{x-}/{q-Spades}{j-Spades}{5-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

With multiple bets in the middle, action picked up on sixth streets with both players electing to check.

Andrew Brown checked dark heading to seventh, and Yarron Bendor went for the bet. Brown called quickly.

"Full house," said Bendor.

"You don't miss, do you?" said Brown. "Two pair just turns into a full house every time."

Brown had the better two pair going into seventh, but Bendor drilled the nine to go with his nines in the hole.

Razz

John Racener: {8-}{8-}{7-}/{j-}{3-}{q-}{5-}
Yarron Bendor: {a-}{2-}{10-}/{8-}{5-}{7-}{9-}
Andrew Brown: {4-}{6-}/{9-}{a-}{10-}{2-}/{9-}

John Racener was nursing a very short stack before getting it all in on third street against two opponents.

Action on the side, Yarron Bendor bet every street up until seventh and Andrew Brown called all the way down.

They both checked seventh street and cards were turned over.

Bendor's eighty-seven was the best hand at the end, as Brown drew an unhelpful nine on seventh and Racener was third-best and eliminated.

Jonathan Williams Eliminated in 21st Place ($6,835)

Level 21
Jonathan Williams
Jonathan Williams

Omaha 8 or Better

After a short-stacked John Racener raised in early position, an even shorter-stacked Jonathan Williams moved all in for his last 62,000.

After the floor was called to clarify for Andrew Brown if he could re-raise to 87,000, it was confirmed that he could, so he did. Racener called, leaving himself with just 86,000 behind.

On the {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop, Brown checked and Racener bet. Brown then check-raised, and Racener tossed his cards frustratedly into the muck, leaving Brown heads up against Williams.

Jonathan Williams: {8-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Andrew Brown: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades}

Brown's aces were ahead and after the runout of {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, Brown's full house took down the pot and sent Williams to the payout desk.

Akkari Crosses a Million

Level 21
Andre Akkari
Andre Akkari

Omaha 8 or Better

After Andre Akkari raised in the cutoff, he was called by Jordan Siegel in the cutoff, Roberto Marin in the small blind, and Joseph Thomas in the big blind.

On the {k-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} flop, action was checked to Akkari, who bet, and was then raised by Siegel. Marin called, Thomas folded, and Akkari called.

The turn brought the {4-Clubs} and after marin checked, Akkari bet again. Both Siegel and Marin called to see the river {7-Diamonds}.

Marin checked and once more Akkari bet. Siegel opted to fold, but Marin called.

Akkari showed {k-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for a rivered wheel and Marin tossed his cards to the muck to send a large pot to Akkari to boost his stack over a million chips early in the day.

Mauricio Ferreira Pais
Mauricio Ferreira Pais

Omaha 8 or Better

After being left short early in the day, Mauricio Ferreira Pais committed the last of his chips preflop versus Lawrence Brandt.

Mauricio Ferreira Pais: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}
Lawrence Brandt: {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Spades}

The flop came {9-Spades}{j-Clubs}{10-Spades} to negate any low possibilities and give Pais the lead with a pair of tens. However after the {3-Hearts} on the turn, the {2-Spades} fell on the river to give Brandt a winning flush and make Pais the first elimination of the day.
