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

Lawrence Greenberg called Darrell Hopkins' preflop shove, and sighed when the cards were flipped over as he saw he was pipped by one.

Darrell Hopkins: 9♣9♠ All in
Lawrence Greenberg: 8♣8♥

The 8♠Q♠J♠ flop couldn't have been spicier, as Greenberg took the lead, but Hopkins picked up a straight flush draw. The Q♦ turn took away his outs, as now he needed to hit a better boat, or said straight flush. The J♥ river didn't help, as he was eliminated with a mincash.

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

Gualter Fortuna and Jun Liu got the chips in on a board that read 4♠Q♦3♦ with Fortuna at risk for his tournament.

Gualter Fortuna: 4♦5♦ All in
Jun Liu: J♥J♦

Fortuna was drawing thick, but the 3♠ turn trimmed down his outs so that when the 5♠ river came it was no help to Fortuna who was sent to the rail.

Anthony Marches On

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

From middle position, Jeffrey Kimber found himself all in for his remaining 95,000. Brian Roelke opted to just flat the shove, allowing big blind Anthony March to shove his stack for 245,000. This bet completely put Roelke to the test, as he asked, "What are you doing to me, Anthony?" before being reminded that table talk wasn't allowed in multi-way pots. He ended up folding J♠J♣ face up, and saw that he'd got rid of the best hand.

Jeffrey Kimber: K♥Q♥ All in
Anthony March: A♦Q♦

Kimber couldn't find his king as the board ran out 10♣6♣10♦3♠Q♠ as he hit the rail, and Roelke was left feeling relieved, as he was a call away from having the same fate. "Good fold," a tablemate said to him.

Anthony March	590,000 400,000	400,000
Brian Roelke	206,000 192,000	192,000

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

Tom Thomas raised to 22,000 from late position, and received calls from cutoff Mark Seif, button Julio Belluscio, and big blind Scott Eskenazi.

He carried on with a continuation-bet of 50,000 after the flop came down 2♠10♦7♥. Belluscio and Eskenazi called again, as Seif got out of the way. The turn 5♠ checked through, as did the river 9♥ and Eskanazi showed 10♥4♥ to scoop in a sizeable pot, as the other players mucked.

Player	Chips	Progress
Julio Belluscio	979,000 88,000	88,000

Tom Thomas	755,000 262,000	262,000

Erick Torres

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

Kathy Liebert began the action with a raise to 24,000 from the hijack. Liebert was called by Craig Paisley in the cutoff, and James Frank came along with a call from the big blind.

Frank checked the 5♠4♠9♣ flop and Liebert continued for 20,000. Paisley followed with a call, and Frank folded.

The 5♦ turn did not slow Liebert down who opted to bet 60,000. Paisley folded and Liebert dragged in the chips.
