Jason Koon Eliminated in 21st Place ($173,723)

Nível 23 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Jason Koon moved all in for roughly 1.1 million only to have Bill Perkins move all in over the top. The rest of the field folded and Koon discovered the bad news.

Koon:
Perkins:

Per usual, Perkins shouted his favorite saying, "Leeeeeeeroyyyyy Jenkins." The flop was dry as can be for Koon, who was left looking for a jack. The turn paired both players, but Perkins' kicker had him well out in front. Koon needed a jack on the river to stay alive, but he was left wanting as the useless peeled off.

Koon became the first player eliminated from the feature table and exited to a nice round of applause.

Yevgeniy Timoshenko Bubbles the $111,111 One Drop High Rollers

[user101598]

Nível 22 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Yevgeniy Timoshenko gets a handshake from Matt Glantz after being eliminated.

The action folded to Matt Glantz, who raised to around 600,000 out of the small blind. Yevgeniy Timoshenko announced "call," although he wanted to go all in, committing more than three-quarters of his stack.

"This is Googles all over again," Shaun Deeb said, referring to the epic pot-limit Omaha hand from the 2012 $50,000 Poker Players Championship.

Neither player tabled their hand, however, and the flop fell . Glantz bet enough to put Timoshenko all in, and he called all in.

Glantz started to turn over his hand, but the dealer halted him because the action must be completed on all tables. The two started discussing their hands, and Timoshenko had "it." Glantz then said he was "suited," and at that point everyone basically knew what the two hands were. Bill Perkins even took out his phone and plugged the two hands into a hand calculator to find out each player's equity.

Finally, the hands were opened.

Glantz:
Timoshenko:

It was all over for Timoshenko when the turned, leaving him drawing stone dead. A meaningless completed the board, and the bubble was officially over.

The remaining players will earn a minimum of $173,723, and we will have a full redraw for you shortly.

Timoshenko Doubles On the Bubble

[user68268]

Nível 22 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Yevgeniy Timoshenko celebrates a double up

From under the gun, Yevgeniy Timoshenko moved all in for 295,000. Action folded to Bill Perkins in the small blind, and he called. In the big blind was one of the larger stacks in the event, Matt Glantz, but he opted to fold. Glantz's fold, drew several eyebrows from other players, as they really didn't seem to understand why Glantz didn't just call because then more than likely, he and Perkins would've just checked it down with a double shot to bust Timoshenko on the bubble.

Before Timoshenko's hand and Perkins' hand were revealed, all other tables had to finish action, but that took a couple of minutes thanks to a hand going on at Table 453 between Lawrence Greenberg and Steve Gross.

Greenberg had opened to 165,000 from under the gun before play folded to Gross in the big blind. He reraised all in for 910,000. Greenberg went into the tank while players swarmed the table where Timoshenko and Perkins waited patiently.

Now, because action was still pending, Timoshenko and Perkins were not to reveal their hands. Even so, there was plenty of chatter going on about the hands Timoshenko and Perkins held, along with chatter about Glantz folding from the big blind. This chatter was very open and loud, but Greenberg didn't seem to be paying attention to any of it as he tanked with what looked like to be a very painful decision. Some of the players standing around waiting for Greenberg to decide on his action even began discussing calling the clock, but in the end felt it wouldn't be right.

Eventually, Greenberg folded his hand, and all of the attention was fully on Timoshenko and Perkins, with Timoshenko at risk of bubbling with the shorter stack.

Timoshenko held the and was up against the for Perkins. Timoshenko was dominating Perkins, but there was still a decent chance of a chop to happen between the two players.

On the flop, the rolled out to help Timoshenko maintain his lead. The turn was the , and the river then completed the board with the . Timoshenko's six kicker played, and he was able to double up and then some.

"Thanks a lot, Matt Glantz!" yelled Jason Koon, who was onlooking from the adjacent table. "What the f*** was that? What is he doing?" he said to his table as he sat back down in his chair to resume play.

"One-hundred percent he would've broken him," piped up Mike Sexton, who was at Koon's table. "One-hundred percent."

"Yeah, he would've. He said he had eight-seven off," added Koon.

Shaun Deeb also commented, yelling out "Matt Glantz is horrible at poker everyone!" from across the table of Glantz.

At any rate, Timoshenko doubled up and the bubble will continue.
