Negreanu Eliminated

Level 17
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

PokerNews was just alerted to the elimination of Daniel Negreanu by his now-former tablemates.

As told by his executioner, Venkata Tayi, Negreanu was all-in by the final draw holding 2x3x4x5x and drawing one, while Tayi was still drawing two cards.

Negreanu paired his deuce, while Tayi drew an ace and a nine to go with his three babies, making his ace-low the winner and sending the Poker Hall of Famer to the rail.

Level 17
Philip Sternheimer
Philip Sternheimer

Stud Hi-Lo Regular

Philip Sternheimer: A88 / J348
Zack Freeman: 766 / 57J8

Philip Sternheimer bet fourth and fifth street to get called by Zack Freeman before both then checked sixth street. Sternheimer bet again seventh and Freeman made the call. Both players revealed their hands and needed to triple check the outcome, after which Sternheimer scooped it all with a set of eights and jack-eight-four low to narrowly beat Freeman's jack-eight-seven.

Tsyngalev Takes a Hit to the Chin

Level 17

Pot-Limit Omaha

Yashuo Chin raised the pot to 8,500 on the button and a frustrated Kirill Tsyngalev jammed for 26,000 out of the big blind, which Chin called.

Kirill Tsyngalev: AK104
Yashuo Chin: Q985

As soon as the 855 flop fell, Tsyngalev could all but grin and jokingly said "well played" as he was already drawing dead. The Q turn and A river were meaningless and Tsyngalev then exited the tournament with a tirade of swear words in Russian.

Buchalter Takes From Hughes

Level 16

Pot-Limit Omaha

Three ways to the KK79J river, Ryan Hughes announced a bet of 19,000 and that forced out Dennis Maschke. Yehuda Buchalter had other plans and quickly piled in his stack of T-5,000 chips, resulting in an instant fold by big stack Hughes.

"I better show this one," Buchalter grinned as he flashed the KK for flopped quads.

Eichhorn Gives Some Blood

Level 16

Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Dennis Eichhorn has built his stack up to start the day, but recently gave some back to his table in the game known by players as "Blood"

Eichhorn first raised to 5,000 in the cutoff and got called by Jon Shoreman in the big blind.

Each player drew two and Shoreman led out for 11,000, which got a call from Eichhorn.

The players drew one on the second draw and Shoreman now bet 20,000 and Eicchorn folded.

On the following hand, Eichhorn raised tom 4,500 in the hijack and got calls from Michael Trivett on the button and Frederic Moss in the big blind.

The trio each drew two and checked to the second draw. Moss drew two, Eichhorn drew one and Trivett drew two.

After Moss checked, Eichhorn bet 10,000 but got raised to 30,000 by Trivett. Moss folded and Eichhorn went into the tank.

After nearly three minutes, Eichhorn mucked his hand to send the pot to Trivett.

No-Limit Hold'em

One of the largest pots of the tournament so far unfolded in NLHE and it was Dean Joe who went from an above-average stack to the rail all of a sudden. He got it in preflop with the AK only to get snapped off by Dekel Balas with the KK.

The board ran out 87445 and more than 100,000 in chips went moved from one side of the table to the other.
