Shak Spikes the Duece

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

Action folded around to Sarah Pluard and she shoved her last few remaining chips and was called by Dan Shak from the next seat over on the button.

Sarah Pluard: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Dan Shak: {a-Spades}{2-Spades}

Pluard was happy to see that she was well-ahead, but that happiness was short-lived after Shak hit a deuce on the flop. Pluard failed to improve on the turn and river and was sent to the rail.

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

Andrew Ostapchenko raised to 16,000 from early position and Justin Bonomo called from the cutoff. Dan Shak came along from the big blind and it was three-way action to the flop, which came down {j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}.

Shak checked, Ostapchenko continued for 25,000, and Bonomo folded. Shak called and then checked for the second time on the {5-Spades} turn.

Ostapchenko kept the pressure on with a bet of 51,000 and this time Shak wasted little time in folding.

Wilson Sets Up Shak on the River

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

Dan Shak raised to 17,000 under the gun and Taylor Wilson called from the small blind. Both players proceeded to check both the {j-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{q-Clubs} flop as well as the {4-Clubs} turn.

When the {6-Diamonds} completed the board on the river, Wilson bet 42,000 and Shak snap-called with the {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}. It was no good though as Wilson had rivered a set with his {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}.

Tran Gets Aggressive

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

After the under-the-gun player raised to 14,000 and Manig Loeser made the call, action folded to Trung Tran in the small blind and he upped the price to play to 47,000. The original raiser folded but Loeser made the call.

The dealer spread a flop of {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and Tran thought for a moment before he continued with a bet of 53,000, which was enough to Send Loeser's cards to the muck.

Dyer Nearly Quadruples Up to Big Stack

Chad Holloway

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

The preflop action escaped us but we do know it resulted in four players getting it all in with Justin Zaki being the shortest stack and Michael Dyer the second shortest with 221,000.

Michael Dyer: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Galen Hall: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Justin Zaki: {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

Dyer was ahead and he managed to successfully hold when the board ran out a safe {9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{q-Spades}. Hall and the other Big Slick chopped a side pot, while Dyer doubled through them both while simultaneously eliminating Zaki from the tournament.

Zazay Zaps Zinno

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Anthony Zinno has been eliminated, but he was nice enough to relay the hand to us that decimated his stack.

Action folded to Omar Zazay and he shoved his last 96,000. Anthony Zinno then shoved from the next seat over for his last 104,000 and the remaining players got out of the way.

Anthony Zinno: {a-Spades}{k-}
Omar Zazay: {a-}{q-}

Anthony was well ahead preflop, but things got very interesting on the [QJ9sss] flop as Zazay flopped top pair, top kicker, but Zinno had the redraw to the nutflush and he could still hit his king as well. Unfortunately none of those scenarios happened on the turn or river, and Zazay doubled up and left Zinno with only T8,000 behind and he was eliminated on the very next hand.

Olisar Continues to Climb After Eliminating Roberts

Chad Holloway

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Joseph Cheong opened for 12,000 from early position and Ryan Olisar, who has been on an upward trajectory as of late, called from the hijack. Brent Roberts then moved all in for 72,000 from the big blind, Cheong folded, and Olisar thought for a bit before tossing in a call.

Ryan Olisar: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Brent Roberts: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

It was a flip and Roberts was looking to hold to stay alive. Unfortunately for him, that proved easier said than done as the {2-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} flop paired Olisar. Neither the {7-Clubs} turn nor {a-Spades} river helped Roberts and he made his way to the exit.
