Lipton Flops a Set to Crack Ashdown's Aces

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Chad Lipton raised to 160,000 from early position. Harrison Ashdown called from the cutoff and Kurt Fitzgerald defended out of the big blind.

Fitzgerald and Lipton checked to Ashdown on the 2104 flop and he bet 125,000. Fitzgerald called before Lipton check-raised to 400,000. Only Ashdown called.

The turn came the K. Lipton shoved all in for Ashdown's remaining 1,000,000 chips. Ashdown snap-called and the cards were revealed.

Harrison Ashdown: AA All in
Chad Lipton : 44

Lipton had flopped a set of fours and had Ashdown drawing to two outs. The 2 hit the river and Lipton had eliminated Ashdown with his set.

Nguyen Chips Up, Knocks Out Kim

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Action started with a raise from the player in late position, which Tommy Nguyen three-bet from the hijack. Yoon Kim was in the cutoff and went all in. Late position folded and Nguyen called.

Yoon Kim: AQAll in
Tommy Nguyen: QQ

Kim commented he needed to get lucky and got some options on the J109 board. Both players flopped an open-ender and Kim said he will happily take a chop.

The turn 2 and river 9 did not bring the desired straight for Kim, however, and he was eliminated.

The flop came out with 7Q5 and Stival pushed in his last 100,000 out of turn and Gazzola called.

Action started with a raise from the cutoff to 120,000. Andrew Kelsall went all in on the button for a bit over 400,000. David Cabrera Polop then reraised all in from the small blind. The big blind and the cutoff folded.

Andrew Kelsall: K7All in
David Cabrera Polop: AQ

The flop was great for Polop; it was 610A giving him top pair.

The turn 6 gave Kelsall a flush draw, but it didn’t come in on the river. The river was the 10 and Kelsall was eliminated.

Bleznick Surges Up the Chip Counts

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jared Bleznick
Jared Bleznick

The board showed 92Q3. Michael Estes bet 375,000 from early position with roughly 500,000 behind. From the button, Jared Bleznick raised enough to put Estes all-in. Estes snap-called and the cards were revealed.

Michael Estes: KK All in
Jared Bleznick: 99

Bleznick's flopped set had Estes drawing extremely thin. There was no miracle two-outer on the river as it came the 5, meaning Estes was out and Bleznick had become one of the biggest stacks in the room.
