Abernathy Busts in Brutal Fashion

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Samantha Abernathy
Samantha Abernathy

Samantha Abernathy opened to 5,500 before Mike Gao made it 22,000. The 888poker ambassador then moved all in for around 110,000 and was snap-called.

Samantha Abernathy: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Mike Gao: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Both players had cowboys and it was very likely that each player would take back their stacks. However, the {q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop gave Gao some backdoor flush possibilities. The {4-Diamonds} turn gave Gao outs to scoop and the {9-Diamonds} river gave him a flush as well as the elimination.

Stoker Under Pressure

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

A raise to 6,000 was in front of Takahiro Sasabe on the button and Ryan Stoker then made it 23,000 to go, forcing out any other potential players involved in the hand. Once it was back on Sasabe, he pushed all-in with the far superior stack and that sent Stoker into the tank.

He ultimately shrugged, shook his head and sent the cards into the muck.

Entine Forces a Fold from Rudolph

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

In a heads-up pot, the flop was {4-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{3-Spades} and Christian Rudolph checked at first from the small blind. Oliver Entine bet 5,000 in the hijack and Rudolph responded by raising it to 14,500. Entine tanked for some time and fired 35,500. After some thinking, Rudolph let it go.

Kollar Chips Up

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Luke Vrabel opened to 5,000 from middle position and was called by Ryusuke Daifuku from the cutoff. PokerNews Cup third-place finisher Forrest Kollar then made it 22,000 on the button. Only Daifuku called.

Kollar continued for 18,000 on the {j-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop. It looked like Daifuku wanted to ship in his stack but in the end, he decided to fold.

Mateos Jams Up His Stack

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

On a completed board of {q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} with around 180,000 in the middle, Shiraz Lall was put to the test. Facing off against Adrian Mateos, he was met with the all-in shove by the Spaniard with the covering stack and the reluctant fold by Lall followed.

Peters Takes a Pot

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

David Peters has been busy building a stack on Day 3. Peters opened to 6,000 from under the gun and received a single call from Karim Rebei in middle position.

Action checked through the {q-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{a-Spades} flop to the {k-Spades} turn where Peters led out for 6,000. That bet alone was enough to get a fold and keep Peters chipping up. Rebei, meanwhile, has continued to build on his momentum from Day 2, surpassing the 1,000,000 mark.

Aldridge Shows Kings; Geilich Gone

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Harold Evans opened to 5,000 from under the gun before Ken Alridge made it 16,000 from the hijack. Evans counted out his stack and then decided on a call.

Aldridge continued for 7,000 on the {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop and Evans quickly gave it up. Aldridge then tabled his {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}.

"You got a printer underneath the table Ken?" a tablemate asked, implying it wasn't the only time Aldridge had been dealt the cowboys.

As the hand progressed, Ludovic Geilich was seen leaving Bally's Gold as he was eliminated from the tournament.

"The Mouth" Goes Deep into the Blender

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Mike Matusow
Mike Matusow

With about 14,500 in the pot on the {4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop, Ari Shin checked and Mike "The Mouth" Matusow bet 3,500.

Shin raised it up to 8,000 and Matusow quickly called.

The turn brought the {a-Diamonds} and Shin sized up to 18,000, "The Mouth" called again.

On the {j-Diamonds} river, Shin took his time before firing 45,000 more.

The four-time bracelet winner went deep into the tank. He spent nearly five minutes in the blender in quiet thought. He eventually laid it down and Shin dragged the pot without showdown.
