Kyte Sends Weiss Out

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Three ways on the first draw, John Cressend drew one from the small blind, Jon Kyte drew one from the big blind, and Dennis Weiss, who was already all in, drew two in the cutoff. Cressend then check-called a bet from Kyte.

On the second draw, everyone drew one and Cressend check-called another bet from Kyte.

Cressend and Kyte stood pat on the end and Weiss drew one. Cressend then check-folded facing a final bet from Kytle.

Dennis Weiss: 7x5x4x2xAll in
Jon Kyte: 8x6x5x3x2x

Weiss was drawing live, but he squeezed out a 7x — pairing his board to be eliminated.

Weinberger Draws Three to Be Eliminated

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante
Joseph Weinberger
Joseph Weinberger

Catching the action after the second draw, it checked to Danny Tang on the button, who bet. Joseph Weinberger then raised all in to 18,000 in the small blind, and Matt Vengrin called in the hijack.

Tang also called, and exclaimed, "Wow!' as he saw Weinberger draw three cards on the final draw. Vengrin then drew one, and Tang remained pat.

It checked to showdown where Tang's 9x7x5x3x2x won against the 5x4x4x3x2x of Vengrin and the mucked cards of Weinberger. Vengrin was left with 8,000, which he also lost not much later.

Tobias Hausen Bubbles

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante
Tobias Hausen
Tobias Hausen

Tobias Hausen was already all in and at risk on the final draw against Adas Povilavicius.

Tobias Hausen: 8x6x3x2xAll in
Adas Povilavicius: 7x6x5x3x2x

Unfortuantely for Hausen, he was already drawing dead with his eight draw, having broke a nine.

Hausen was tossed an irrelevant Qx to make his elimination official, meaning everyone remaining has locked up a cash of at least $3,013.

Turner Doubles on Bubble

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Jon Turner got himself all in pre-draw from early position, with Danny Chang on his direct left calling to put him at risk.

Both players drew one card across the first two draws, and Turner stood pat on the third. Chang drew one, and cards were not to be tabled until the floor signalled that it was allowed.

Turner held 8x7x6x3x2x and Chang turned over 8x7x4x3x with only a five or deuce ending Turner's tournament. The Jx pulled by Chang secured Turner's survival.

Vonderahe stood pat and bet the whole way, while Guagenti drew two, then two, then one before folding on the final round.

Vonderahe fanned out 7x5x4x3x2x for the nuts before collecting the pot.

Wong Takes More From Hubbard as Le Survives Bubble

Stephen Hubbard raised in the cutoff and called a three-bet from Jerry Wong on the button. Each player took two cards on the first draw, after which Hubbard check-called Wong's bet.

Hubbard still needed two cards on the second draw. Wong had improved to a one-draw, and he bet after Hubbard checked. Hubbard called to the final draw, where he requested one more card.

Wong stood pat behind and received a check-fold when he tossed in a final bet.

Over at an adjacent table, small blind Young Ko took one card on the second draw, with Nam Le standing pat behind in the big blind. Le then moved in his last 8,000, which Ko check-called.

The final draw went one, pat, and Le doubled up when he tabled 8x6x4x3x2x against the 9x7x6x3x2x of Ko.

Schulz Soft Bubbles; Hand for Hand Begins

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Action was picked up on the final draw. Sebastian Schulz and Sami Bechahed were both all in, with Zachary Reinbold also in the pot, covering both opponents.

Schulz drew two, and both other players stood pat.

Bechahed tabled 8x6x5x3x2x which was good against the 8x7x5x3x2x of Reinbold, confirming his survival. Shortest stack Schulz had a sweat, tabling 7x6x4x3x needing a deuce and a deuce only to stay alive. He flipped a jack, and left the tournament area.

Hand for hand play has since began, with players just one place away from the money.

Turner Left Short on Bubble

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Jon Turner announced "all in" on the button, but due to the limit nature of this event, it was deemed as a raise. Danny Chang called from the small blind, and drew two to Turner's one.

He checked then snap-called a bet from Turner. Both players drew one, action checked through, then they both drew one again. Chang bet out, sending Turner into the tank. "Three away," said Chang, referring to the player's proximity to the bubble.

Also at the table, Ari Engel called clock on Turner, but it was deemed that he had not had enough time to act. Shortly thereafter, the 30-second countdown was initiated, and with a second left he stuck in the call.

Chang tabled 8x7x5x3x2x, with Turner frustratedly showing 7x5x4x2x alongside a Kx
