Negreanu Hits the Rail

Tim Baker

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Limits: 12,000-42,000

Quan Zhou limped from the hijack and Magnus Edengren called from the cutoff. Daniel Negreanu called from the small blind and Ronald Keijzer checked out of the big blind.

After the blinds checked the 10♠7♦Q♣ flop, Zhou bet 31,000. Edengren folded, but Negreanu called for his last 9,000. Keijzer folded, and the cards were turned over with Negreanu at risk.

Daniel Negreanu: 9♥8♦3♦2♣ All in
Quan Zhou: K♦K♥J♠9♦

Negreanu was behind with his straight draw and needed some help to survive. The rest of the board ran out 10♥A♥ and Zhou won the pot with a straight, sending Negreanu to the rail.

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Limits: 12,000-42,000

Ryan Miller opened from the hijack and was called by Magnus Edengren on the button and Daniel Negreanu from the big blind to create a pot of 118,000.

On the 9♥7♠6♥ flop, fireworks erupted as all players were all-in. Miller was at risk for 130,000, Edengren was at risk for 159,000, and Negreanu had them slightly covered with 180,000.

Ryan Miller: A♠10♦6♦2♥ All in
Magnus Edengren: A♥K♥5♦4♠ All in
Daniel Negreanu: 10♥8♣7♣4♦

Negreanu had the nut straight against the nut low draw of Miller and the nut flush draw of Edengren. The A♣ turn counterfeited Miller's low chances, before the 7♥ river gave Edengren the nut flush to scoop. Miller hit the exit as Negreanu was left with crumbs.

Voor Bubbles the Tournament

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Limits: 10,000-35,000

Andrew Voor raised to 35,000 from middle position with just 9,000 behind. When it folded to Ryan Hoenig in the big blind, he 3-bet to put Voor all in. Voor called and the cards were turned over.

Andrew Voor: A♥K♥6♣2♦ All in
Ryan Hoenig: A♣K♦5♣4♥

Voor was one of the shortest stacks in the room, so even a chop would boost his stack considerably.

The flop came down 10♠7♥J♣ and a chop looked likely. The 10♦ on the turn meant only a four or five on the river would eliminate Voor. The 4♦ dropped on the river and the crowd around the table let out a groan of disbelief, as Hoenig improved to a pair of fours to send Voor to the rail on the direct bubble.

With the elimination of Voor all of the remaining players were now in the money.

Green Makes Gutsy River Call for Half

Brett Slezak

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Limits: 10,000-35,000

A pot was brewing in a blind-on-blind battle between Yevgeniy Timoshenko from the small blind and Richard Green from the big blind.

30,000 went in from each preflop, 30,000 went in on the flop, and 90,000 went in on the turn from each to create a pot of 310,000.

With the board reading A♠10♥7♠Q♣6♠, Timoshenko checked to Green who bet 250,000. Timoshenko responded with a check-jam for 578,000, slightly more than what Green had.

Green would tank for over three minutes as the entire room stood and observed. Green eventually slammed forward a stack of chips to call off his stack.

Richard Green: A♣7♦4♦2♦ All in
Yevgeniy Timoshenko: A♦K♠10♠5♣

Timoshenko rivered the nut flush with no low while Green flopped two pair and rivered the second nut low. He made the right call on the end to get half.

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Limits: 10,000-35,000

On a flop of 7♥Q♥6♦, Dzmitry Urbanovich and Viktor Blom got all of their chips into the middle in a pot of over 1,000,000, with Urbanovich being the one at risk.

Dzmitry Urbanovich: A♥K♥10♥2♥ All in
Viktor Blom: 7♦5♥4♥3♣

If Urbanovich were to lose this pot, the remaining 58 players would be in the money. The 7♠ on the turn propelled Blom into the lead with trip sevens and took away a lot of Urbanovich's outs. However, the 8♠ came on the river to give Urbanovich the best low, and the two chopped the pot.

Hansen Soft Bubbles

Tim Baker

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Limits: 10,000-35,000

Shaun Deeb raised to 35,000 from the cutoff and only Gus Hansen called from the small blind.

Hansen checked the 10♣9♥7♥ flop and Deeb bet 75,000. Hansen check-jammed for 84,000, which Deeb quickly called.

Gus Hansen: A♣10♥3♣5♥ All in
Shaun Deeb: Q♣J♥5♠4♦

Hansen had top pair and a flush draw, but Deeb had a lot of cards he could hit to eliminate Hansen. The 2♠ turn gave a possible low draw, but the J♣fell on the river to give Deeb the winner with a pair of jacks. The tournament was now on the direct bubble.
