Ford Makes Trips

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Thomas Hall limped in from the hijack, and Hugh Cullen went all in on the button by flicking in his remaining two 1,000 denomination chips. Juan Ford called from the small blind before Dustin Ethridge checked his option.

On a flop of AQQ Hall bet out for a single big blind, and Ford made the call. The turn 7 checked through, and Ford bet out for 6,000 when he was checked to on the 6 river. Hall folded, and Ford turned over Q5 for flopped trips. Cullen quickly showed his AJ before leaving the table.

Miao Chenxiang: AQ

The dealer ran out a 2279A board, eliminating Kitsos from the tournament.

Baumgartner's Collecting Bounties

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Players were in a three-way all in with Anthony Brooks at risk from under the gun with the smallest stack, Grant Strook all in from the cutoff and Jacob Baumgartner in the small blind.

Grant Strook: 88All in
Anthony Brooks: A10All in
Jacob Baumgartner: K2

Strook was hoping to hold but Brooks picked up a better pair on the 7610 flop.

Brooks improved further on the A turn.

Strook ran out of luck as Baumgartner hit a king on the K river, meaning he took the side pot and Stook's bounty, adding to his collection of four bounty chips.

Ford Makes Trips

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Tom Hall limped in from the hijack, and Hugh Cullen went all in on the button by flicking in his remaining two 1,000 denomination chips. Juan Ford called from the small blind before Dustin Ethridge checked his option.

On a flop of AQQ, Hall bet out for a single big blind, and Ford made the call. The turn 7 checked through, and Ford bet out for 6,000 when he was checked to on the 6 river. Hall folded, and Ford turned over Q5 for flopped trips. Cullen quickly showed his AJ before leaving the table.

Zhong Takes Haynes Bounty

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Players were already on a 6510 flop and heads-up. Weizheng Zhong moved all in and action was on Steve Haynes.

Haynes made the call, putting himself at risk, and the players flipped their cards.

Steve Haynes: J10All in
Weizheng Zhong:AA

Haynes stood from the table after seeing Zhong's Aces, beating his top pair he had hit on the flop.

The 9, 3 runout didn't help Haynes, and he passed his bounty chip to Zhong and was eliminated from the tournament.

Nowling Busts Out Runcan

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Paul Runcan open shoved in middle position for his remaining 31,000 chips, and action folded all the way round to David Nowling, who asked for a count before making the call.

Paul Runcan: A7 All in
David Nowling: QJ

The flop came down 3810 giving Nowling straight outs as well as his pair outs. The brick 2 was welcomed by Runcan, but the river 9 wasn't, as he offered his opponent a "nice hand", and left the table, chucking his bounty chip over to Nowling.

Duffy Gets Lucky to Take Out Dombrowski

Level 15 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

With all the chips having gone in the middle in a pre-flop raising battle, it was Christopher Dombrowski who was at risk against Jeremie Duffy.

Christopher Dombrowski: AKAll in
Jeremie Duffy: AQ

Dombrowski was way out in front pre-flop and after the 879 flop, but when the Q came on the turn, he needed to hit a king to stay alive. No such luck when the 2 came on the river, and he was sent to the rail.

Kelsall Flushed Out

Level 15 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Andrew Kelsall went all in from middle position after action had folded to him, and saw he was in great shape as he was only called by Daniel Jackson on the button.

Andrew Kelsall: AK All in
Daniel Jackson: AQ

Unfortunately, the deck had other ideas for Kelsall as the flop came down Q46 sending Jackson far ahead into the lead. On the 10 turn he was given life, but had already stood up from the table as the 9 river rolled off. He did a quick double take, checking if his rivered flush was good, however Jackson had him outpipped, and took his bounty.

Rampage Boats Up

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Gene Grieshaber opened to 12,000 from early position, and no player matched his bet until action folded round to Ethan "Rampage" Yau, who ended up raising to 30,000. Grieshaber put in the smooth call.

The 5JJ flop checked through, then Rampage bet out for just less than one fifth pot, to 13,000 on the J turn, and Grieshaber made the call. When the Q was dealt on the river, Rampage put in a chunk of green 25,000 denomination chips, enough to put Grieshaber all in. He tanked for a bit, before making the call.

Rampage showed KK and Grieshaber went to turn over his hand, mucked it, then turned it over again, after realising he had to due to being all in. His 1010 was no good.

Kramer Takes Out Coultas

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Kevin Wan raised from the cutoff to 13,000 only to see Bradley Coultas three-bet all in for 109,000 from the button. Jonathan Kramer then came over the top and four-bet jammed all in, and he had both players covered. Wan folded.

Bradley Coultas: 1010All in
Jonathan Kramer: AK

The flop fell 1037 and gave Coultas a set, but when the 8 came on the turn, Coultas needed the board to pair to stay alive. No such joy when the 9 came on the river and Coultas was sent packing.
