Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Jonathan Walker raised to 1,600 from middle position and was called by Jordan Alpert in the cutoff, Orion Schmitz in the small blind, and Wenyan Liao in the big blind for a four-way pot.

It was checked to Walker, who shoved for a bit over 15,000 on the 4♣10♣Q♥ flop. Alpert called to put him at risk and both Liao and Schmitz got out of the way.

Jonathan Walker: K♥J♣All in
Jordan Alpert: J♠10♦

Walker would need some help with his open-ended straight draw with an over, but the 5♥7♥ bricked out and Alpert collected the rest of Walker's chips.

No Luck for Nold

Laura Fryer
Laura Fryer
Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Action was followed from the J♥2♠10♣ flop with a pot of around 10,000 when Ari Pelcovitz check-called the big blind after Adrian Lopez bet 3,500 from under the gun. Derek Nold called from early position, Hitesh Patel called the cutoff and Caitlin Comeskey also called on the button.

The Q♥ turn prompted action to check around to Patel who bet 8,500. Comeskey folded, as did Pelcovitz. Lopez called, but Nold moved all in for his remaining 39,300.

Patel took some time before calling, and Lopez got out of the way as the players flipped their hands heads-up on the turn.

Derek Nold: K♥10♥All in
Hitesh Patel: Q♠8♠

Nold was looking at a heart flush draw and a straight draw, but sitting with a pair of tens. Patel had paired up to a queen on the turn and was ahead.

No luck came for Nold on the Q♦ river, which only improved Patel and Nold was eliminated from the tournament in the first level of the day.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Matthew Beinner raised and then faced the short-stacked all-in of Anatoly Nikitin for 18,100 total. They engaged in some table chat during which Beinner said he may not have a choice.

"I can't really say anything but I would prefer if you didn't gamble," Nikitin replied. A couple seconds later, Beinner called.

Anatoly Nikitin: 7♣7♠ All in
Matthew Beinner: A♥Q♣

The A♠10♦3♠Q♠K♦ board improved Beinner who then dodged spades and sevens to knock out Nikitin.

Wolf Punished For Making the Right Call

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

With around 14,000 in the pot on a 6♥3♠10♠ flop, Shamus Featherstone shoved from middle position, putting William Wolf to the test for his last 24,000.

"This is a tough spot. Do you have pocket threes, pocket sixes?" asked Wolf. After thinking some more, he dropped in his stack, leaving him at risk.

William Wolf: A♠10♥ All in
Shamus Featherstone: K♠Q♠

Wolf had made the right call, but still needed to fade a lot of outs as Featherstone had two overcards to go along with his flush draw.

Then Wolf that had to play catch-up, as the 9♠ on the turn gave Featherstone the flush he was looking for.

Only a spade on the river could save Wolf, but the Q♦ wasn't what he was after, meaning his Main Event dream was over.
