Hendrix Bites into Saul's Stack

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 0 ante

With the board reading {4-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{A-Clubs}, Kevin Saul and Adam Hendrix were in the battle of the blinds.

Both players had already had bets of 60,000 and 80,000 in front of them when Saul checked to Hendrix, who fired another 165,000. Saul gave it some thought and eventually made the call.

Hendrix knew he was ahead, quickly turning up his {A-}{5-}{10-}{4-} for a full hosue. Saul mucked, losing a large chunk of his chips early into today's third level.

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Shortly after Glenn Cozen's departure in 17th place, another short stack was dispatched from Table 731.

Samuel Lee tangled with Jason Riesenberg. Just like Cozen, Lee couldn't win with kings.

Lee: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Riesenberg: {9-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}

Arriving at the table just in time for the hand measurement, the board {5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades}{7-Diamonds} declared the winner very clearly. Riesenberg's hand made a full house, fives full of threes.

Lee collected $7,644 for his 16th-place finish.

Glenn Cozen Eliminated in 17th Place ($7,644)

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
Glenn Cozen
Glenn Cozen

Glenn Cozen raised to 40,000 from the cutoff and Adam Hendrix defended his big blind.

The action on the {9-Spades}{3-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} flop went very fast. Hendrix paused for a moment, counting chips for his intended lead. He eventually led out and Cozen instantly declared, "All in." Hendrix called in the same tempo.

Cozen: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{A-Spades}
Hendrix: {J-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs}

Cozen had a premium starting hand but Hendrix had an open-ender with a middle pair. The turn {A-Diamonds} was safe for Cozen but the {7-Spades} pained him as Hendrix rivered a straight. Cozen left the tournament in 17th place, good for a $7,644 payday.

It folded to Bernardo Dias in the small blind who limped. Nathan Gamble raised to 36,000. What happened next was a cacophany of "pots" until all the chips were in the middle.

Gamble: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
Dias: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Clubs}

There was an "oooh" that went around the table as the flop came {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. The turn was the {10-Diamonds} and the river the {5-Diamonds}, eliminating Bernardo Dias in 18th place ($7,644).
