Limit Hold’em

Paul Volpe raised from the hijack and John Hennigan three-bet from the small blind. It was folded back to Volpe, who called all in for a bit over 100,000 total to put himself at risk.

Paul Volpe: A♥3♥ All in
John Hennigan: K♦J♠

Volpe held the lead with his ace, but the 5♠8♠J♥ flop immediately paired Hennigan's jack to leave Volpe drawing slim.

The 2♠ turn nor 2♣ river helped Volpe and he was eliminated a few spots shy of the money.

10,000 Ante, 10,000 Bring-In, 40,000 Completion 40,000-80,000 Limits

Limit Hold’em

Bryce Yockey raised all in for his last 80,000 first to act and Nick Guagenti three-bet from the cutoff. Everyone else got out of the way and hands were revealed.

Bryce Yockey: K♣Q♦ All in
Nick Guagenti: K♥5♥

Yockey had Guagenti dominated and was in great shape to double, but the A♥3♠A♦10♣5♣ runout paired Guagenti's five on the end — which got groan from Yockey as he was eliminated in heart-breaking fashion.

Razz

Erick Lindgren: XxXx/5x9xJx8x/Xx All in
Brian Rast: 7x4x3x/6x9x2xJx

Erick Lindgren bet on fourth street, and Brian Rast called. Rast took over the betting lead on fifth street and bet. Lindgren called, and did so too when Rast fired on sixth street.

Lindgren was left with 50,000 on seventh street, which Rast put in as a bet. Lindgren mulled it over for 30 seconds or so before he shrugged and called off.

Rast revealed a seven-low, and Lindgren tossed his hand into the muck as he bubbled the tournament.
