The Tables Turned Twice

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

On a heads-up flop of {j-Spades}{2-Spades}{5-Hearts} Pavlo Veksler moved all in against opponent alex Berenson for 87,700. After a few moments, Berenson called and the cards were tabled, with Veksler at risk.

Pavlo Veksler: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}
Alex Berenson: {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

The turn was the miracle card for Berenson as it gave him the lead with two pair but the river {5-Clubs} was a dagger as it gave Veksler a superior two pair with aces and fives. But Veksler didn't even know he'd won and he stood up to leave until people told him he had won the had.

"Ohh, I thought he had pocket queens," he explained as he stacked his new chips and Berenson was left very short.

Scott Seiver: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

Seiver was way ahead with his pocket aces and the board ran out {7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades}{5-Spades}{5-Clubs} to eliminate Funaro.

"Houston, We Have a Problem"

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Martin Kabrhel
Martin Kabrhel

In a three-bet pot between Masashi Oya and Martin Kabrhel, the dealer spread the flop of {q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. Oya checked to Kabrhel who bet 3,800 and Oya called.

"Houston, we have a problem," Kabrhel announced.

The turn brought the {q-Diamonds} and Oya checked again. Moving his hippo card marker toward Oya's cards, Kabrhel said that the hippo smelled a queen under there. Kabrhel opted to check it back and the {k-Spades} completed the board.

Oya led out with a bet of 4,800 on the river and Kabrhel thought for a minute before making the call. Oya flipped over {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, leaving Kabrhel confused about whether he was betting for value or as a bluff, but either way, Oya's hand was good enough to win the pot.

Phillippe Souki Elimination
Phillippe Souki Elimination

There aren't many crueler ways to bust the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event than with pocket aces, especially when $10 million and the coveted gold bracelet are within reach.

That's exactly what happened to Philippe Souki about seven hours into Friday's final table. However, he did still receive $1,075,000 as quite a sizable consolation prize for eighth place.

Negreanu's Cold Summer Continues

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu limped in from the small blind and Daan Mulders ripped all in from the big blind. Negreanu quickly called off his stack of 38,500 and the cards were tabled.

Daniel Negreanu: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Daan Mulders: {a-Spades}{5-Hearts}

The flop came {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Negreanu still looked poised for a double up. The {4-Clubs} on the turn changed nothing and Mulders threw his five at the board as if it magnetized the {5-Diamonds} out of the deck and onto the river.

"This is hilarious," Negreanu laughed with his vlog rolling. "How do they do it?"

"Thanks for playing," the dealer said as Negreanu got up from his chair.

"Thanks for playing?! Ya, you're welcome!" said Negreanu.
