Hart Flushes Velador Out

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The action was picked up on the 9♦Q♠J♠A♠ turn, with over 200,000 already in the pot. Luis Velador was in the big blind and bet 100,000, around half his stack, and Grant Hart put him all-in under the gun.

Velador made a quick call, but received bad news at the showdown.

Luis Velador: 9♠8♠5♦4♦ All in
Grant Hart: A♦A♣10♠7♠

Hart had turned the higher flush, and with his straight flush out in Hart's hand, Velador was left drawing dead. The 4♠ river was rendered meaningless as Velador said his goodbyes and took his exit.

Elizalde Doubles Through Suzuki

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Claudio Elizalde opened from the cutoff, Bodhen Suzuki three-bet enough from the big blind to put Elizalde all-in and Elizalde, who started the hand with 105,000, called.

Claudio Elizalde: A♦K♦6♣2♣ All in
Bodhen Suzuki: A♠K♣10♥2♠

The board ran out A♣8♣4♥9♣8♥. Elizalde was good with a flush and six-deuce low to get a full double up at Suzuki's expense.

Mantel Cracks Johnson's Aces to Double

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Marco Johnson raised to 42,000 under the gun. Ariel Mantel then three-bet to 130,000, after which Johnson moved all in. Mantel quickly called off his 307,000 total chips, revealing the cards.

Ariel Mantel: A♠K♦10♥2♦ All in
Marco Johnson: A♦A♣J♣10♣

Mantel made two pair on the 8♥7♠2♥K♣3♠ runout, and with Johnson's hand unable to make a low, Mantel was awarded a full double-up.

Players Who No Longer Have Chips

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Reading Pays the Bryce

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Bryce Yockey
Bryce Yockey

Bryce Yockey continued his up-and-down day, calling John Reading's all-in bet preflop from the big blind.

John Reading: K♥10♣5♥3♥All in
Bryce Yockey: A♣7♠6♥5♣

The runout of 2♠K♦J♠5♠A♦ gave Yockey a better two pair for the high end, and since Reading didn't have a qualified low, he scooped the pot.

Yockey entered Day 2 fifth in chips, but has struggled to get traction thus far.

Jon Kyte
Jon Kyte

Jon Kyte and Eric Tang were heads up on the A♠5♣8♠ flop. Tang checked to Kyte from the small blind, who fired a bet of 104,000. Tang put in a call to the 10♠ turn, which checked through.

Tang then led the 7♠ river for 285,000, which Kyte quickly called. Tang tabled A♦9♣4♠3♠ for a flush and a seven-low, and Kyte tabled his bested A♥A♣6♠3♦ in frustration.

Delmundo and Rawtani Chop Up Tzimas

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Konstantinos Tzimas opened to 25,000 from under the gun, Nitesh Rawtani called from the cutoff and Jonathan Delmundo called from the big blind.

The flop came A♥7♦8♣ and Tzimas bet 100,000. Rawtani called and Delmundo moved all in for 124,000. Tzimas called and Rawtani called.

Tzimas shoved on the 9♥ turn and Rawtani, who had Tzimas covered, called.

Jonathan Delmundo: 10♣9♠8♥7♣ All in
Konstantinos Tzimas: A♣A♠3♦5♣ All in
Nitesh Rawtani: 8♠4♠3♥2♠

Delmundo had two pair and a straight draw. Tzimas had top set and Rawtani had a pair and the nut-low draw. The 6♣ river gave Delmundo a straight to take the high for the main pot. Rawtani had the nut-low and Tzimas took high from the considerably smaller side pot.

Tzimas was left short-stacked following the hand and busted shortly afterwards.

Daniels Gets a Massive Double Through Forrest

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Filippos Stavrakis limped in from middle position and William Forrest limped behind from the hijack. Shane Daniels three-bet to 55,000 and only Forrest called.

The flop came 2♥6♣4♣ and Forrest checked. Daniels bet 50,000, Forrest check-raised to 295,000 and Daniels shoved for 338,000. Forrest called with a covering stack to put Daniels at risk.

Shane Daniels: A♦10♣5♠3♣ All in
William Forrest: A♠Q♣3♦2♣

Both players had the nut-low. Daniels had a six-high straight for the high while Forrest had bottom pair and a flush draw. The 3♠ turn counterfeited Forrest's low and the 9♠ river was a brick. Daniel was good for both halves at showdown with an ace-five low and six-high straight to scoop a colossal pot at Forrest's expense.

Nogueira Fills Up and Doubles Up

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action was picked up on the flop, with the board showing 10♣A♣J♠ and Rafael Nogueira all in for 101,000, and Ariel Mantel putting him at risk.

Rafael Nogueira: A♠8♣10♦5♦ All in
Ariel Mantel: A♥9♠8♦3♥

Nogueira was in front with his two pair but would need to fade the open-ended straight draw of Mantel. The 3♣ on the turn gave Mantel more outs, but the A♦ on the river gave both players a full house, with Nogueira holding a bigger full house, aces full of tens to secure the double up.
