How Sears was Speared

Nível 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We missed the elimination of Nikolai Spears, which happened just before the dinner break, but we learned some details after the fact and thought we'd share them with you.

In what would be his last hand, a player in early position opened for 1,600 only to have Russell Crane three-bet to 4,000 from late position. Sears then four-bet to 11,800 from the big blind, the original raiser folded, and Crane called to see the flop. Sears led out for 11,100 and called off for 39,000 total when Crane moved all in.

Crane:
Sears:

Crane flopped top pair, but Sears was drawing very much alive to both straight and flush draws. The turn was no help to Sears, and the river actually improved Crane to a full house. Sears failed to catch and saw his 2014 WSOP Main Event come to an end.

"If You Are From Canada, I Call"

Nível 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

"Last time, you had aces," muttered a player who tank against an all-in wager of 101,200 from Chris Greaves.

Greaves' opponent had made it 20,000 to go before the flop, and Greaves was all-in and silent with his head bowed. His opponent shifted in his seat and attempted to find anything that would help him make the right decision.

"Where are you from?" the player asked Greaves. "If you are from Canada, I call."

Greaves didn't respond.

"How are you feeling, good?" Greaves' opponent asked, craning his neck to get a better view of Greaves. "Do you want a call? Sir?!"

Finally, the player called.

Greaves:
Opponent:

Upon seeing the aces, Greaves' opponent stalked away in despair. The dealer ran out a board of in his absence.
