Hairabedian is the King Today

After a middle-position player raised to 1,025 from middle position and Roger Hairabedian, who already won a bracelet earlier today, called from the hijack, "King" Dan Smith moved all in from the cutoff for 12,675. The original raiser folded and Hairabedian made a quick call.

Showdown
Hairabedian: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Smith: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

Smith was way behind and would find no help as the board ran out {6-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{4-Spades}. With that, Hairabedian knocked out a tough opponent and chipped back up to the starting stack.

Tilly Takes Care of Another Player

Is there no stopping Jennifer Tilly today? She just eliminated another player in shape of Paul Newey.

We're not sure how the action went but it seemed as if she isolated Newey, forcing another player off his holding of king-queen.

Tilly opened {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}, dominating Newey's {k-Spades}{3-Spades}. The board ran {2-Hearts}{q-Spades}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades}{8-Hearts} meaning her jack played. It was a good job she did isolate! Her stack remains around the 170k mark.

Mizrachi No Longer Table Chip-Daddy

Michael Mizrachi lost a sizeable pot to Marc Andre Ladouceur, and in doing so dropped to second in chips at his table. Both players are in a very healthy position though.

Mizrachi was in late position and Ladouceur was in the big blind. Somehow 18,000 chips had made it into the middle before the latter led for 11,700 from the big blind. Mizrachi took his time and folded.
