Mark Radoja (from a previous event)
Mark Radoja (from a previous event)

Mark Radoja was down to his last 2,500 chips and he was in the big blind. The player in the cutoff raised, Mark Wongcharoensuk called in the small blind, and Mark Radoja called in the big blind.

On a flop of {Q-Hearts}{10-Spades}{4-Spades}, Radoja got his remaining 900 in and Wongcharoensuk had him at risk.

Radoja: {Q-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Wongcharoensuk: {Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Radoja was drawing slim against Wongcharoensuk's top two pair. The {K-Spades} turn provided Radoja with flush outs, but he couldn't get there on the {5-Hearts} river and the two-time WSOP bracelet winner was eliminated here in Level 9.

Andrey Zaichenko (taken earlier this series)

With over 10,000 in the pot and three players in, the flop came {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades}. The player under the gun checked, the player in middle position checked, and Andrey Zaichenko bet in late position. The first player then check-raised, the next player called, and Zaichenko called.

The turn was the {7-Clubs} and the first player bet out. The next player called and Zaichenko raised. The first player called and the next one folded.

It was heads up to the river, which was the {4-Hearts} and the first player check-called a bet from Zaichenko.

Zaichenko showed {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts} for aces up and that was good for the pot.

Charles Stein Feels Like a King

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Charles Stein opened with a raise from under the gun before the player on the button reraised. Stein three-bet. His opponent called.

The flop came {9-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and Stein bet. His opponent called.

The turn brought the {10-Hearts} and Stein fired another bet. His opponent followed.

A final bet from Stein, after the {3-Hearts} completed the board, was enough to take down the pot as his opponent's cards flew into the muck.
