Some Updated Chip Counts at the Dinner Break

There are just 72 players remaining, and Jason Beckman, Felipe Ramos, and Frederick Andersson joined the rail over the last few minutes.

Ramos had lost the vast majority of his stack and didn't get there with {Q-}{J-}{10-}{2-} against the {A-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} of Mike Gorodinsky.

Beckman was all in and at risk with {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, and Christopher Frank, in the big blind, flopped a straight draw with {10-}{9-}{8-}{7-} double-suited. Frank got there on the turn of the {Q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{7-Hearts} board.

Last but not least, Andersson raised to 12,000 from early position and called a three-bet from Ben Lamb, on the button. On the {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop, Andersson got his remaining 130,000 in, and Lamb put him at risk to create the following showdown:

Fredrick Andersson: {K-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Ben Lamb: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}{Q-Spades}{J-Clubs}

The {3-Clubs} turn and {3-Hearts} river were both blanks, and Andersson was eliminated.

Chris Lee Takes from Daniel Geeng

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

Daniel Geeng opened to 15,000 from the cutoff, Johnny Lodden called from the button, and Chris Lee called from the big blind.

The flop came {K-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, and all three players checked. The turn brought the {2-Clubs}, and Lee bet 36,000. Geeng called, and Lodden folded. The {8-Clubs} fell on the river, and Lee checked. Geeng bet 52,000, and Lee quickly called.

Geeng started to table his hand and showed {8-}{7-}, but Lee rolled over {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for two pair, and Geeng sent his other two hole cards into the muck.

Duong's Day Done By Quads

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante
Jack Duong
Jack Duong

James Egerer raised and picked up a call from Benjamin Eilers one seat over. On the {J-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts} flop, both players checked. Egerer bet the {3-Spades} turn for 28,000, and Eilers called before the {6-Clubs} river was checked by Egerer. Eilers bet 105,000 and forced a fold.

Soon after, a limped pot emerged with Eilers and Jack Duong in action. They got into a raising war on a {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop, and Duong ended up as the player at risk.

Jack Duong: {J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Benjamin Eilers: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades}

Duong had one out with the case nine in the deck, but even that miracle chance was gone on the {A-Clubs} turn, improving Eilers to quad aces. The meaningless {8-Spades} on the river was just a formality, and Duong headed to the rail.

"These limped pots are dangerous," Scott Davies added.

Jarred Graham Gets a Fold from Loren Klein

With about 25,000 chips already in the pot and the board reading {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, recent bracelet winner Loren Klein checked from the big blind, and Jarred Graham bet 12,500 from the cutoff. Klein called.

The turn brought the {Q-Clubs}, and Klein check-called a bet of 17,500 from Graham.

The {J-Diamonds} fell on the river, and Klein checked. Graham bet again, 35,000 this time, sending Klein into the tank. Eventually, a player at the table called the clock on Klein, and shortly after the seconds officially began to tick down, Klein tossed his cards into the muck. Graham took the pot.

Geeng Rivers Lodden

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

Gavin Polone raised to 13,000, and Daniel Geeng three-bet to 45,000 from the small blind. Johnny Lodden raised the pot, and Palone folded. Geeng gave it plenty of consideration and called all in for 114,500.

Daniel Geeng: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Johnny Lodden: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}{10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

The board ran out {6-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}, and Geeng got there on the river to improve to a full house. He lost a three-way pot with chip leader Yan Shing Tsang and Lodden soon after to let Lodden recover some of the chips from their clash.

Jeff Madsen Chips Up

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

With a massive pot of about 220,000 already brewing and the board reading {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{3-Spades}, action checked to former WSOP Player of the year Jeff Madsen, and he bet 200,000. Paul Leckey was in early position and went into the tank for about a minute before he ultimately folded, and Madsen stacked his newly-acquired chips.
