Ayers Takes Out Lo

Laura Fryer

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Allen Ayers was in a middle position and moved all in for just over 2,000,000 and action folded to Wai Kit Lo in the cutoff.

Lo took some time and checked his cards a couple of times before making the call.

Wai Kit Lo: J♥Q♣ All in
Allen Ayers: A♦Q♥

Ayers was looking strong, and the A♥2♣7♠ flop only improved him further.

The 9♠ and A♣ runout sealed Lo's fate and he was eliminated from the tournament with around 45 players remaining.

Gene Mitchell raised to 400,000 from middle position. Gautier Lucas three-bet to 800,000 from the button, leaving just a few chips behind. Mitchell four-bet enough to put Lucas all in, and after an extra pay jump was confirmed, Lucas made the call.

Gautier Lucas: A♠J♠ All in
Gene Mitchell: A♣10♣

Lucas remained ahead on the 7♦8♥K♣2♥4♦ run out and doubled up.

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Justin Grider, with only 625,000 left, went all in from under the gun. Everyone folded to Sean Pitzer in the big blind, who decided to call without looking at his cards. At showdown, Grider revealed K♥9♦, while Pitzer showed the worst possible starting hand in Hold'em poker: 7♥2♦.

There's a saying every poker player knows: "Seven Deuce never lose," and this time, it held true. The dealer revealed the flop: 7♣K♦2♠, giving Pitzer two pair. Though Grider hit a king, the turn 8♠ provided no help. The river then brought the 7♦, giving Pitzer a full house and sending Grider to the rail.

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

When the action folded to James Simmons in the small blind, he announced all in for roughly 1,600,000. His opponent in the big blind looked at his cards and then made the call to put Simmons at risk.

James Simmons: A♥5♣ All in
Big blind: A♠9♦

The run out of Q♠Q♦4♠6♠10♣ favored the big blind, as his ace-nine high was enough to send Simmons home.

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Ryan Stiner raised to 500,000 from under the gun. John Ricksen called out of the big blind, and they headed to the flop.

Ricksen checked the 4♠4♦K♠ flop and Stiner put out a continuation-bet of 250,000. Ricksen didn't need to think for too long before mucking his cards and forfeiting the pot to Stiner.

Laura Fryer

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Steven Ceresa raised in the hijack and Kevin Madar jammed from the small blind. Ceresa made the call and the players flipped their cards.

Steven Ceresa: A♥A♣ All in
Kevin Madar: A♠K♣

Both players missed the 9♣5♣7♠8♣7♥ runout, and Madar thought he was eliminated from the tournament. The table called him back as the dealer placed just 225,000 back in his seat after the hand.

A few hands later, Madar was all in with 8♣4♠ and won a double on a 9xKx6x8xJx runout.

Madar moved in again with 8♣10♥ and was called by Sean Pitzer on the button, who had Q♠K♦. Madar got lucky and picked up straight on the 7♠5♣4♣9♦J♣ board, to give him another double and keep him in the tournament.
