Li Takes Most Of Hughes Chips

Level 23

No-Limit Hold'em

Action was picked up on the river in a pot between Ryan Hughes in the big blind and Luteng Li in first position with 250,000 in the middle.

The board read 876J4 and Hughes bet 185,000 into the pot, which sent Li into the tank for a couple of minutes.

"You bluff?", asked Li as he pondered the call while Hughes remained silent.

After some time he placed in the chips to call and Hughes turned over 64. That was second best to Li who tabled JJ for a set of jacks and he raked in the sizable pot off of Hughes.

"No bluff," said Hughes after the hand "just a nit roll."

Gamble Ends Kelley's Run

Level 23

Pot-Limit Omaha

Nathan Gamble opened to 40,000 in the hijack and Allan Le flatted in the cutoff. In the small blind, Gregory Kelley three-bet pot to 175,000. Gamble repotted to isolate, Le folded, and Kelley called all-in for 192,000 total.

Gregory Kelley: KQJJ All in
Nathan Gamble: 9876

Kelley pleaded for high cards as the K54 flop gave Kelley top pair while Gamble picked up a wrap.

The 7 turn completed Gamble's straight, but Kelley added a flush draw. However, the 6 river could not save him, and Kelley was the next to fall in 19th place as the tournament has been reduced to its final three tables.

Pearson Falls To Madsen

Level 23

Omaha Hi-Lo

Travis Pearson raised in the small blind and in the big blind, Jeff Madsen called.

The flop rolled out Q99 and both players checked to the 8 turn, where Pearson bet. Madsen responded with a raise and Pearson raised himself all in to see Madsen call.

Travis Pearson: A10103 All in
Jeff Madsen: J974

Madsen's three nines held up on the 6 river and the 4-time WSOP bracelet winner took down the pot at the expense of Pearson.

Le Scoops Capped Three-way Pot

Level 23

Badeucy

Action picked up on the first draw in a capped, three-way hand between Allan Le in the small blind, Gregory Kelley under the gun, and Casey Hayes from the hijack after each player contributed 150,000.

Le took one, Kelley two, and Hayes one. Le led and both opponents called.

On the second draw, Le was pat, Kelley still needed two, and Hayes one. Le bet and was called in both spots again.

Kelley and Hayes both drew one on the end, and Le bet for a final time, which both opponents called. Le tabled 76542 for a seven-five badugi and number four low. Neither opponent could find half, and Le scooped a massive one.

Pearson Takes the Rest from Owen

Level 23

Pot-Limit Double Draw High

Travis Pearson opened to 35,000 from the hijack before Adam Owen jammed for 94,000 from the button, and Pearson called.

Both took three on the first draw. On the second draw, Pearson drew two and Owen three.

Adam Owen: AA All in
Travis Pearson: JJJ

Pearson found a third jack on his first draw to take the lead, and his last two cards were the 10 and 7.

Owen needed to find another ace, but his last three cards were 543, and he could not improve as he exited in 24th.

Aces Versus Aces; Kicker Plays

Level 22

Pot-Limit Double Draw High

Robert Klein raised to 30,000 from under the gun and John Bunch called on the button.

Klein drew two and Bunch drew three and Bunch called the 55,000 bet.

Both players drew two and checked on the following draw and betting round.

"Aces," said Klein, earning a sigh from Bunch before Klein turned over AA753. Bunch took another look at Klein's aces with a seven kicker, then turned over AA852 for aces with an eight and it was good for the pot.
