Hallaert Blasts Out

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

Kenny Hallaert and Haengsun Lee went heads-up to a QQ10 flop when Hallaert bet 7,000 from the cutoff and Lee called under the gun.

The turn came the 10 and Lee checked to Hallaert again, who this time fired out 23,000. Lee quickly called as the K fell on the river.

Hallaert then moved all in and Lee, with around 50,000 remaining, tanked for about a minute before folding.

Khalili's Aces Send Slay to the Rail

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

On the turn of K1036, Sohale Khalili fired a bet of 18,000 into the pot of 65,500. Kelley Slay went deep in the tank, peeling his cards back and staring at them. After about two minutes, he made the call.

The 6 landed on the river and Khalili stacked up two piles of chips and pushed them across the line for a bet of 32,000. Slay said, "Okay, I am in too deep," and called off his stack of about 30,000, while rolling over AK but it was no good as Khalili showed AA, sending Slay out of the tournament.

Mercier Gets Paid

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

Picking up the action on the turn, Jason Mercier on the button was involved in a hand with Eric Fields in the big blind. With the board reading 61035 Fields checked. Mercier responded by pushing a bet of 15,500 into the middle. Fields took a significant amount of time before making the call to send the two players to the river.

The 9 river saw Fields check once more. Mercier was not willing to go to a cheap showdown just yet, instead firing off 28,000. That bet sent Fields deep into the tank as he counted out his stack while sizing up his opponent. Eventually he committed calling chips but mucked with visible frustration as Mercier turned over AA for the overpair.

Al Mouselly Fills Up

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

The action was picked up as Maher Al Mouselly checked to Andrew Kim who then bet 5,800 on the flop of 286 and then Jared Ward raised it to 18,000.

Both of his opponents made the call and the trio went to the turn 6. Al Mouselly and Kim then checked to Ward who fired for 32,000, but then Al Mouselly check-raised to 85,000 and Kim went into the tank.

After a good while, Kim made the call and Ward got out of the way for the other two to see the river A.

Al Mouselly checked to Kim who quickly checked back but was then shown 62 by Al Mouselly for a turned full house. Kim admitted to having six-four as Al Mouselly raked in the large pot.
