Lee Beats the Odds

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Eugene Lee
Eugene Lee

Philip Wiszowaty opened preflop and short-stacked Eugene Lee moved all in. The action folded back around to Wiszowaty who made the call to put Lee at risk on the stone bubble.

When all of the hands were finished the cards were then tabled.

Eugene Lee: AJ109
Philip Wiszowaty: Q1053

The much-anticipated board ran out J649A for Lee to win with aces and fives to survive with a double.

"Yeah! F*ck all of y'all!!" Lee shouted and laughed as he gave all of the onlookers the two-finger salute.

Dzivielevski "Bluffs a Bluff" to Chip Up

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Yuri Dzivielevski
Yuri Dzivielevski

More than one and a half dozen hands are concluded on the soft and stone-cold money bubble with just one elimination as there are 69 remaining.

The action runs very slow and no further all-in showdown has taken place yet.

In the latest hand, Mads Amot bet the Q1073A river for 60,000 and Yuri Dzivielevski then raised the pot to 370,000 in the cutoff. Amot gave it some thought and folded the JJ face-up.

"I bluffed the bluff," Dzivielevski replied with a smirk and raked in the chips.

Michael Duek

It was the stone bubble and Michael Duek was all in and at risk looking at a flop of 678. The call was made by LaDarren Banks and the cards hit their backs.

Michael Duek: J1094
LaDarren Banks: K952

The 8 turn and Q river locked up the win and Duek got a pure double on the bubble.

Smith Eliminated Just Before the Bubble

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Dan Smith
Dan Smith

Players were just two eliminations away from the money when action was joined on a 4610 flop. Dan Smith was all in and at risk and Quan Zhou called.

The cards hit their backs.

Dan Smith: AAQ3
Quan Zhou: KQ104

Zhou was leading with two pair, tens and fours, while Smith had a pair of aces with a flush draw.

The 9 turn gave Zhou a flush draw as well and the 2 river would give him the winning flush to send Smith to the rail in 70th place.

Lamb and Zack Tangle Near the Bubble

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

The two big stacks, Daniel Zack and Ben Lamb, just played out a pot in which both invested 145,000 on the 1092 flop. There was no further action on the 8 turn and Q river after which Zack flashed his QQ for a set of queens.

Lamb had that beat with the A1076 for a ten-high straight and won the pot.

Old Age and Treachery

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Henry Hull
Henry Hull

On a heads-up turn of A672, Henry Hull checked to his opponent, Robert Cowen, who then bet 300,000 into the already large pot of 500,000.

Hull thought about it for a few moments, then announced a call and punctuated it by thumping his stack chips onto the felt.

The river fell the 3 and Hull gave a shrug and moved all of his chips into the middle, totaling 345,000, and Cowen went deep into the tank.

"I feel like you just have 7-8-9-10 here," he said to Hull after an intense staredown, but still could not quite make up his mind.

After using several time banks, Cowen finally made the could to award the pot to Hull.

"Show the bluff!" someone at the table said, and Hull proudly showed pocket kings, and then admitted he just had six-eight to go with it for a stone bluff. The player to his right corroborated this story and the table went nuts over his bluff., to which Hull responded with a quote from David Mamet...

"Old age and treachery will always beat youth and enthusiasm [exuberance]".

Assorted Stacks on the Bubble

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Half a dozen hands have been completed so far and the field is still two eliminations away from bursting the bubble.

Ka Kwan Lau won a multi-way limped pot on the Q88 flop when Christopher Frank bet 25,000 and Lau raised to 75,000, forcing folds all around.

Further assorted counts near the bubble can be found below.

Katz More Than Doubles Near the Bubble

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Cary Katz
Cary Katz

Two away from the money, Cary Katz was all-in and the showdown proceeded with heads-up action only as Noah Schwartz had gotten out of the way after a QJ5 flop.

Cary Katz: AA42
Daniel Barriocanal: KK42

The 4 turn and 7 river changed nothing and Katz more than doubled.

"Would you have won?" he asked Schwartz, who shook his head. "I flopped a pair and back door flush draw".
