Nasty Run Out Sends Hao Packing

Myles Phago

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Action folded to Dongze Hao in middle position, who open-jammed all in for 74,000 and was looked up by Tasuku Maruo in the cutoff. The rest of the table folded quicker than cheetahs on caffeine.

Dongze Hao: Q♥10♥ All in
Tasuku Maruo: 10♣10♠

It was all looking hunky dory for Hao when the dealer peeled off the flop of 8♦2♠Q♠ to send him into the lead. But then when the 10♦ made an appearance on the turn it all changed and Maruo stormed back into the lead. No queen came to save Hao on the K♥ river and he was sent to the rail.

Chao Wu raised to 10,000 under the gun, which Emmett King called a couple of seats to his left before Kevin Killeen came along in the big blind.

The action checked to King on a 4♦2♥7♣ flop, who bet 20,000. Killeen responded with a check-raise, moving all in for around 60,000. Wu folded, but King called.

Kevin Killeen: Q♠7♠ All in
Emmett King: J♠J♣

The K♥ turn and 8♣ river offered no relief for Killeen, who was the latest casualty of the Main Event.

Alain Medesan: K♥8♠ All in
James Darby: 9♠9♣

Darby's nines held on the 10♦2♦ runout to send Medesan packing.

Eights No Bueno for Buonocore

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

After facing a reraise to 35,000, Brian Carraher squeezed to 110,000 preflop and then quickly called all in for 418,000 when Andrea Buonocore pushed all in with the covering stack.

Brian Carraher: K♥K♣ All in
Andrea Buonocore: 8♦8♥

The superior pair held up on the 10♦4♥2♠Q♥J♠ board and Carraher doubled to a big stack.

Scott Seiver was moved to the table when the hand concluded and busted with a shorter stack shortly thereafter.

The details of this hand were recounted to PokerNews by players at the table.

Jacob Gagnon opened from early position before Mike Matusow chose to three-bet. Gagnon countered with an all-in, and Matusow called to put himself at risk for 105,000.

Mike Matusow: QxQxAll in
Jacob Gagnon: KxKx

Matusow had the misfortune of running pocket queens into the kings of Gagnon.

The flop brought no help for Matusow as it came Ax8x6x to keep Gagnon well ahead.

The Ax turn was of no consequence, and the Kx river improved Gagnon to a full house to eliminate Matusow from the Main Event.

Mattias Karlsson four-bet jammed for 190,000 and Benjamin McCoy three-bet folded his 30,000 after some consideration. One table over, Ernest Pak hit the rail right after dinner and then there was a tussle between Martin Pineiro and Simon Wilson.

On the 9♥7♠5♠3♥A♠ river, Pineiro had checked and Wilson bet 42,000 for just shy of the pot size. Pineiro went deep into the tank and ultimately called to get shown the A♣5♥, which he had beat with J♠9♠ for the flush.
