Dayan Busts Greenleaf Two Spots away from the Money Bubble

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Yehuda Dayan
Yehuda Dayan

Yehuda Dayan opened to 20,000 from the cutoff and action folded around to Seth Greenleaf, who was automatically all in and at risk from the big blind for his last 14,000 chips.

Seth Greenleaf: 103
Yehuda Dayan: A5

Greenleaf was in dire straits when Dayan flopped top pair on the AQ8 flop. The J turn gave Greenleaf outs in the form of a gutshot straight draw, but the 6 river was a brick and Greenleaf was eliminated from the main event just two spots away from making the money.

Yancey Races for a Double

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

James Romero opened for 21,000 from middle position, leaving the action on Kirk Yancey in the cutoff. Yancey took a few minutes before raising all in for his last 63,000. The action folded to Venkata Chinta in the small blind, who four-bet for his remaining stack.

Romero got out of the way after the big blind folded, leaving Yancey at risk.

Kirk Yancey: AK
Venkata Chinta: QQ

Yancey was flipping on the bubble, connecting immediately on the JAK flop. The 5 turn and 4 river changed nothing, leaving Yancey's two pair good for the double up.

The turn A went check-check and a 5 paired the board on the river. Dimming sent 150,000 into the middle and Pham went deep into the tank.

After a few minutes, he eventually called with AA for the full house and Dimming sent Qx6x into the muck.

Emperador Makes Wild Hero Call on the Stone Bubble Against Vampan

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Daniel Vampan
Daniel Vampan

On a completed board of J436A with around 220,000 chips in the pot, Diego Emperador checked from the big blind to his opponent Daniel Vampan in the hijack. Vampan then bet 600,000, enough to cover Emperador's stack of 325,000.

Emperador entered the tank for several minutes. Eventually, the floor came over because it was the last table still playing, and Emperador asked for some clarification about bubble rules. A few more minutes then went by before Vampan called the clock, giving Emperador only 30 seconds to make a crucial decision.

When the countdown reached five seconds left, Emperador slammed in the calling chips and players were told to keep their cards face down to give ample time for media to arrive.

When everyone had gathered, Vampan showed his bluff with 73 for a measly pair of threes, and Emperador elicited some gasps from the crowd when he tabled his KJ for just a bluff-catcher with a pair of jacks. He doubled up on the stone bubble and play continued onward.

Lu Jams the River

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

With about 26,000 in the middle, Kojiro Mizukami check-raised the bet of 25,000 from Yunye Lu to 50,000. Lu made the call.

The A hit the turn and Mizukami continued for 125,000. Lu tanked for almost three minutes and made the call.

When the 10 completed the board, Mizukami checked to Lu who slammed a stack of greens across the line, announcing an all-in for just over 350,000. Mizukami instantly mucked his hand and the dealer pushed Lu the pot.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Marton Czuczor opened from middle position and Jordan Westmorland three-bet jammed a stack of around 37,000 behind him. Czuczor called with a bigger stack to put Westmorland at risk of bubbling.

Jordan Westmorland: AA
Marton Czuczor: QQ

Westmorland's aces held up as the board ran out 87936 to earn him a double on the stone money bubble.
