Andy Taylor Eliminated in 25th Place ($323,100)

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Andy Taylor
Andy Taylor

Adrian Attenborough opened to 800,000 in middle position and Andy Taylor jammed for 10,500,000 in the hijack. Action folded to Tom Kunze in the big blind who rejammed, and Attenborough folded.

Andy Taylor: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Tom Kunze: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

Taylor needed to win a crucial flip to survive, but the {a-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop left him looking for an eight. However, the {2-Hearts} turn and {k-Spades} river changed nothing, eliminating Taylor in 25th place for $323,100.

Litsou Faces River Raise

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

In what began innocently enough as a limped blind versus blind pot, Efthymia Litsou in the small blind and Jimmy Setna in the big blind, checked the flop and turn of a {j-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{9-Hearts} board.

On the river, Litsou led out for 400,000 and was met with a raise to 1,900,000 from Setna.

Litsou didn't take long before calling to see Setna table {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for a turned full house, putting a dent in Litsou's stack just before dinner.

Another Small Pot for Conniff

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Asher Conniff raised it up to 800,000 in the cutoff in the final hand before the dinner break and Matthew Su called on the button. The {j-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop brought a bet worth 600,000 by Conniff and no call followed as Conniff chipped up with his short stack.

One for the Birthday Boy

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Matthew Su won a small three-way pot and then defended out of the big blind when Asher Conniff raised to 1,100,000 in the small blind. Both elected to check the {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop and the {7-Spades} followed on the turn. No betting action took place either, which then led to the {2-Diamonds} on the river.

Conniff then bet 750,000 and Su folded to see the rail of the birthday boy erupt in celebration.

Philippe Souki raised to 800,000 in early position and was called by Brian Kim on his left and Robert Welch in the big blind. The flop came {10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Souki continued with a bet of 2,500,000 which got folds from both of his opponents.

A couple of hands later, Welch opened 950,000 on the button and Souki defended from the big blind. The flop fell {a-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts} and Souki check-called a bet of 1,200,000 from Welch.

The turn brought the {q-Hearts} and Souki checked again. Welch splashed in a bet of 2,250,000 and Souki finally dumped his cards into the muck.

Kamal Bittar Eliminated in 26th Place ($323,100)

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Kamal Bittar
Kamal Bittar

Kamal Bittar moved all in for his 4,100,000 chips under the gun and Aaron Mermelstein called in middle position.

Kamal Bittar: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Aaron Mermelstein: {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}

Bittar was racing for his tournament life, and the {q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop vaulted him into the lead. The {3-Spades} turn meant he just needed to fade one of the two sevens in the deck, but the {7-Clubs} spiked the river as the crowd reacted accordingly at the sight of the rollercoaster runout, and Bittar made his way to the payout desk in 26th place for $323,100.

Krentzman Folds to a Three-Bet; Chips Up With Three-Bet

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Evan Krentzman
Evan Krentzman

Evan Krentzman raised it up to 800,000 in the hijack and Mayank Madan then took 79 seconds in the small blind before he three-bet to 2,950,000. Once it folded back to Krentzman, he required four seconds fewer to send his cards into the muck.

John Eames then made it 800,000 to go from the under-the-gun position and Matthew Su called. Krentzman popped it back up to 3,200,000 after 62 seconds and it folded back to Eames. Karim Rebei in the big blind seemed interested but folded after more than a minute, Eames and Su also got out of the way.

Attenborough Doubles With Big Slick

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Kamal Bittar opened to 1,000,000 from early position only to see Adrian Attenborough three-bet jam for 10,300,000 from the cutoff. Action folded back around to Bittar who made the call to put Attenborough at risk.

Adrian Attenborough: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Kamal Bittar: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Though at risk, Attenborough had his opponent dominated and was in a good spot to get the full double. He did just that after the board ran out {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} to keep his ace high with the superior kicker ahead.
