Quang Truong Felts a Foe

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Quang Truong and Xuming Qi got all the chips in the middle before the flop and Truong had the larger of the two stacks.

Truong: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}
Qi: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades}

The board ran out {J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} to give Truong Broadway, so he scooped the entire pot and Qi was eliminated.

With about 30,000 chips already in the middle and the board reading {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, Robert Haynes moved all in from middle position and two-time bracelet winner Ben Yu called to put himself at risk.

Haynes: {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Yu: {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}

The {5-Clubs} on the turn gave Haynes the lead with two pairs, aces and fives, and the {4-Spades} on the river gave Haynes a wheel to scoop the pot and eliminate Yu.

Fabrice Soulier and Eduardo Lezcano Eliminated on the Bubble

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante
Fabrice Soulier
Fabrice Soulier

For at least five straight hands, Eduardo Lezcano sat with just a single T-100 chip. Finally, the big blind reached him and he was all-in. Calvin Anderson raised to isolate and everyone else got out of the way.

Lezcano: {q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Anderson: {8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{7-Spades}

The board ran out {8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{a-Spades} and Lezcano didn't get enough help to stay alive.

With a substantial pot already brewing and the board reading {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}, Fabrice Soulier got his stack in the middle against Millard Hale, who had him covered by a wide margin.

Soulier: {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs}
Hale: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}

Soulier had the best of it by miles with trip fours and a wheel wrap, but the {J-Hearts} on the turn gave Hale the nut boat and left Soulier with only one out to scoop the entire pot and drawing to a low for half. The {2-Spades} river wasn't the low card Soulier was looking for and Hale took the whole pot to send Soulier to the rail.

Because both gentlemen busted on the same hand, they share the 125th place prize and split a min-cash of $2,249.

Hand-For-Hand Play Begins

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

The field is now down to 126 players and that means we are on the money bubble. The next player eliminated will leave with nothing and push the remaining field into the money.

Quads Are Good for John O'Shea

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

With a substantial pot already brewing and the completed board reading {Q-}{Q-}{9-}{7-}{3-}, John O'Shea bet 14,000 from the big blind into his lone opponent, James Alexander in middle position. Alexander called and O'Shea instantly tabled {Q-}{Q-}{9-}{4-} for quad queens.

"I didn't think I was bluffing," said Alexander, referring to action on a prior street. "Good thing no ace came."
