Dehner Wins Classic Race to Send Eslami Out

Dan O'Hair

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

Ali Eslami was already all in and at risk from the hijack against Jason Dehner, who was in middle position.

Ali Eslami: Q♥Q♣ All in
Jason Dehner: A♥K♥

It was a virtual coinflip, but the 2♥A♦3♣5♥6♠ runout left Dehner best after pairing his ace and Eslami was eliminated early in Day 3.

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

Kyle Messner shoved his last 31,000 in from the cutoff and Charles Pinckernell looked down at his cards in the big blind.

"Well, ok then," said Pinckernell before he called.

"I think I have you dominated then," replied Messner.

Kyle Messner: A♥Q♥ All in
Charles Pinckernell: A♦K♦

In fact, it was Messner who was dominated and subsequently eliminated as the runout of 4♥9♣8♣5♣10♥ couldn't save him.

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

An unfortunate situation occured for Japan's Yurina Omuro after she got her stack of around 75,000 in the middle with a premium hand, but ran into a better one.

Yurina Omuro: K♠K♣ All in
Luke Blindert: A♠A♣

Even Omuro's suits were covered and the runout of 6♠9♣J♣9♦4♥ meant she was eliminated in the opening level of Day 3.

The board 2x8xQx6x5x. Nacho Barbero held A♣A♥ and Erwin had the K♦Q♦.

Frank Visser

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

The player under the gun had gone all in for just 6,500 chips and was looked up by Daniel Negreanu on the button.

Under the gun: A♦4♦ All in
Daniel Negreanu: A♠J♣

Negreanu was rooting for a chop on the 6♣6♥K♦ board and was elated when his opponent paired up on the 4♠ turn.

The J♥ then came on the river. "Oh shit," said Negreanu as he raked in the pot and eliminated his opponent.

After the hand, Negreanu and the knocked-out player took a picture together, with the latter leaving in seemingly good spirits.

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

Picking up the action partway through the hand, Sean Posner in early position and Naseem Salem from under the gun had gotten their two short stacks in the middle with Salem covering Posner.

Sean Posner: A♣Q♥ All in
Naseem Salem: K♣K♦

Posner was not in great shape with his tournament life on the line. The 9♥5♥Q♣ flop did give the at risk player some hope but the 4♠ turn and 4♣ river kept the cowboys best to hand the pot and knockout to Salem.

Lee Swerdlin: A♣K♦ All in
Dave Mcleod: 8♣8♦

The board ran out 5♠3♣Q♠8♠K♣ and Mcleod's turned set awarded him the pot and an elimination.
