Amaral Finishes Fitzgerald

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Timothy Fitzgerald opened to 3,000 from early position before Benjamin Amaral three-bet from the next seat over to 8,000.

Fitzgerald went all-in for 15,300 and was called by Amaral to be at risk for his tournament life.

Timothy Fitzgerald: AJAll in
Benjamin Amaral: JJ

Fitzgerald was in a steep hole as he only had one overcard working for him as they went ot a runout.

The 86K flop gave Fitzgerald little to work with as his tournament life hung in the balance.

Fitzgerald gained some outs on the 10 turn, but he failed to improve on the 2 river as Amaral eliminated Fitzgerald from contention.

Loren Klein

Jaime Reyes made it 2,500 to play from early position and was looked up by Beqir Salihu in the next seat, Loren Klein in middle position and Kevin Grabel in the big blind.

The flop came 238 and it was checked to Klein who fired out for 6,000. Reyes made the call and the other players folded.

The 5 made an appearance on the turn and Reyes check-called Klein's 13,000 second barrel.

On the 10 river Reyes checked to Klein once more who fired out a third barrel of 38,000. Reyes tanked for a short while before he made the call but hastily mucked his cards on seeing Klein table AJ for the nut flush.

Pedro Garcia: 77 All in
Matthew Lapossie: AA

Amereno Delivers Knockout Blow to Dinh

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Tri Dinh moved all in for 9,900 from early position, Robert Amereno called in the hijack, and Andy Su came along from the big blind.

With Dinh all-in, Su checked the 896 flop, and Amereno fired 15,000. Su folded what he said was ace-queen, and the remaining players tabled their hands.

Tri Dinh: A10 All in
Robert Amereno: 99

Amereno's flopped set had Dinh on the ropes, leaving him needing a straight to stay alive.
