Jason-On-Jason Violence, Wheeler Felted

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
Jason Wheeler Eliminated
Jason Wheeler Eliminated

Jason Wheeler got the last of his short stack in the middle against Jason Stockfish on a flop of {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. Wheeler showed {A-Hearts}{A-}{9-}{5-Hearts} for aces and the nut flush draw, but Stockfish flipped over {Q-}{J-}{10-}{8-} for trip jacks, so Wheeler needed to improve to preserve his tournament life.

The {9-Spades} on the turn was no help to Wheeler and neither was the {4-Clubs} river, so Stockfish took the pot to end Wheeler's run in this tournament.

William Migely Stacks Yashuo Chin to Become the Chip Leader

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Four players saw a flop of {10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and action checked to William Migely who bet. Two opponents folded and Yasho Chin made a pot-sized check-raise. Migely jammed to put Chin to a decision for her stack and she snap-called. The two players were very nearly even in chips.

Chin: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Migley: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{5-Clubs}

Chin had the lead with top set but Migely had the nut-flush draw, so Chin had to dodge diamonds in order to double-up.

The {3-Clubs} on the turn was a safe card for Chin, but the {4-Diamonds} river gave Migely the nut flush and he took the pot to send Chin to the cage and seize the chip lead by miles.

Toby Joyce vs. Igor Sharaskin

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Igor Sharaskin raised to 3,600 from early position and Toby Joyce made a pot-sized three-bet to 13,200 from the cutoff. Sharaskin called.

The flop came {A-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and Sharaskin checked. Joyce tossed out a single orange 5,000 chip and Sharaskin quickly folded.

"I think I might have had aces," joked Joyce as he stacked the pot.

James Hughes On Crumbs

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante
James Hughes
James Hughes

James Hughes and Nadar Kakhmazov had very similar chip stacks going into the hand and they were all in on a flop of {4-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}.

Nadar Kakhmazov: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Spades}
James Hughes: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

The turn card was the {j-Clubs} the river the {5-Clubs} and Kakhmazov's two pair was good.

The stacks were counted down and Hughes had the bigger stack, but after Kakhmazov took such a huge bite out of it Hughes is now left with crumbs.

Some Updated Chip Counts

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Jon Lane Eliminated

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

With a substantial pot already brewing and the board reading {J-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}, Jon Lane had the button and got his entire stack in the middle against Justin Gardenhire, who was in middle position.

Lane: {Q-}{Q-}{10-}{2-}
Gardenhire: {J-Clubs}{10-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts}

Both players flopped straights, but Lane had the best of it with the queen-high straight to Gardenhire's jack-high straight. However, Lane still had to dodge spades, jacks, and eights which would give Gardenhire a flush or full house. The {9-Diamonds} on the turn was a safe card for Lane, but the {A-Spades} river wasn't and Gardenhire took the pot with a flush to eliminate Lane.

Timothy Woodson Has a Smaller House

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Four players put in 4,700 to see a flop of {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}.

Timothy Woodson committed the remainder of his chips which was just 15,000. Two players folded but Daniel Spencer called.

Timothy Woodson: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Daniel Spencer: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

The turn {4-Diamonds} and river {5-Spades} saw Spencer finish with the bigger boat and he gobbled up the last of Woodson’s stack.
