Obst Eliminates Zack

Level 16 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
Daniel Zack
Daniel Zack

Limit Omaha

Daniel Zack raised it up, and James Obst defended his big blind. The flop came {k-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}, and Obst check-called. He did the same on the {8-Hearts} turn, and a {10-Hearts} finished out the board. This time, Obst bet for Zack's last 3,500. Zack sighed and double-checked his cards before calling off his remaining few chips.

Obst showed {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for an ace-high flush, and Zack showed {a-}{4-}{k-}{j-} for flopped top two.

Matusow and Glantz Chop Up Turner

Level 16 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Stud Hi-Lo

Catching the action on fourth street, Mike Matusow bet, Jon Turner raised, and Matt Glantz three-bet. Both Matusow and Turner called before Turner led out on fifth. Glantz raised, Matusow called, and so did Turner.

On sixth street, Glantz bet 16,000 and Matusow called before Turner folded, as both players checked seventh street.

Matusow: {X-}{X-} / {4-Spades}{7-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} / {X-}
Turner: {X-}{X-} / {10-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{4-Clubs} (folded on sixth)
Glantz: {X-}{X-} / {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{2-Clubs} / {X-}

Matusow revealed his {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts} / {3-Spades} as Glantz tabled his {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} / {2-Hearts} and the pot was chopped up.

Limit Omaha

Eric Crain bet in the big blind on a board of {9-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{k-Spades}{3-Spades}, and David Prociak check-raised. Crain called, and an {a-Clubs} hit the river. Prociak bet and Crain called.

"You just rivered me," Crain said with a sigh as he slapped in the call.

Prociak showed {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for kings full on the river.

"Yep, you rivered me."

Prociak Survives

Level 15 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Stud Hi-Lo Regular

David Prociak was all in on third street against Daniel Zack and Eric Crain. Crain fired out bets on fourth, fifth, and sixth streets with Zach calling him down until he folded sixth.

Zack: {X-}{X-} / {5-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Prociak: {X-}{X-} / {K-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{2-Spades}
Crain: {X-}{X-} / {4-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

Prociak tabled his {A-Clubs}{9-Hearts} to be trailing Crain's {6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}.

Crain first revealed the {2-Clubs} to see him make eights-up and an eight-low.

Needing to improve and make two-pair, Prociak would indeed do so as he caught the {K-Clubs} to stay alive.

"Back From the Dead"

Level 15 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Limit Omaha

Chris Klodnicki just took a sizable pot off Ben Yu without showdown when Yu folded to a river bet.

Then, Klodnicki bet the turn and river on a board of {6-Spades}{j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}, and Todd Brunson called both bets. Klodnicki showed {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} for a set, and Brunson couldn't beat it.

"Back from the dead," someone said.

Indeed, Klodnicki was among the shortest stacks a bit ago but is on the upswing now.

Bleznick Busts to Racener in NLH

Level 15 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
Jared Bleznick
Jared Bleznick

No-Limit Hold'em

It was John Racener's turn to pick a game, and he decided to choose no-limit hold'em.

Jared Bleznick raised to 9,500 under the gun and Racener three-bet next to speak to 33,000. The action folded back to Bleznick and he called as the flop landed {5-Spades}{K-Clubs}{6-Spades}.

Bleznick checked and Racener bet 24,000 with Bleznick calling as the turn landed the {A-Clubs} and he checked again.

Racener bet out 37,000 and Bleznick immediately moved all in for roughly 210,000. Racener called, and the cards were tabled.

Bleznick: {7-Spades}{4-Spades}
Racener: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}

Both players held flush draws while Racener also had top two-pair. Bleznick however would still be live to any eight or three.

The river landed the {9-Spades} to see both players make a flush, but Bleznick would unfortunately be headed to the rail in 21st place while Racener continues to rocket up the leaderboard to now sit with 800,000 in chips.
