Frank Visser

Level 12 : Limits 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Eric Rodawig: XxXx/10♠A♣9♥Q♠/Xx
James Cheung: XxXx/4♠4♦6♣A♦/Xx
Mike Matusow: XxXx/8♠2♣7♠Q♥/Xx

The action was caught on fifth street, when Eric Rodawig was already all-in. James Cheung and Mike Matusow were creating a side pot with Cheung check-calling a bet from Matusow.

Cheung then led on sixth street, as well as seventh. Matusow called both times and Cheung announced "full house,", showing down 4♣2♥2♦. Baffled, Matusow showed his 9♣8♣2♠ for two pair, while Rodawig tried to sweat his final cards. However, the Q♠8♦7♥ he slowly revealed were of no help, and he exited the tournament.

On another table, David "Bakes" Baker was also eliminated.

Todd Brunson: 8♦5♠2♦ / 9♣3♣6♣3♦
Andres Korn: Q♥9♦Xx / 9♠Q♣3♠J♥

In a heads-up pot, Todd Brunson bet on fifth street and Andres Korn called, and then same action took place on sixth street. Brunson bet once more on seventh street and Korn gave a sigh before calling.

Brunson showed the low and Korn's two pair was good for the high as the floor came to break the table.

"God dammit! No! I wanted to play with Todd. What the f***!" cried Mike Thorpe.

"Good luck, Crazy," Brunson said as he left the table.

Level 12 : Limits 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Benny Glaser: A♦A♥Xx / 3♠4♣8♥K♣
Andres Korn: 8♠7♥7♦ / 7♠4♠9♣6♥
Opponent: 8♦5♦3♣ / 5♠6♦Q♥10♣

Benny Glaser was all in by sixth street as Andres Korn and another opponent continued to play a pot. Korn bet on seventh street to put his opponent all in and he called it off.

Korn tabled trip sevens as Mike Thorpe informed the table that Korn indeed had trip sevens. Glaser revealed a no-good pair of aces and neither player had a low for Korn to score the double knockout.

"Two people died, one shot," noted Thorpe, who has joked throughout the day about trying to "kill" Glaser.

This time, the action checked around. Vieira tabled J♥10♣4♠ for two pair, and it was enough to scoop the pot. The Portugese player has known a tremendous Day 2 so far and is playing over six starting stacks.
