Nível 17 : Limits 15,000/30,000, 0 ante

With several players on fumes below two big bets, it was Dan Shak who got scooped over on table 144 when his aces were cracked by two pair and a low. The same table saw Christopher Stephan misread his cards as he declared queens up on the Q♣9♥2♣7♠A♥ river when he checked last to act.

Kyle Ray announced aces up for Stephan to table his cards and show the Q♦9♦7♦7♣. He then profusely apologised as he noticed the set of sevens and raked in the entire pot against Ray and Jay Kerbel.

In the meanwhile, Craig Chait saw his stack reduced to a mere 20,000 and he then chopped in a three-way pot with Bryce Yockey and Pascal Leyo.

All-in again shortly after for a severe short stack, Chait got looked up by Kyle Cartwright and Yockey. They checked down to the 9♠7♠2♠5♥3♦ river and Cartwright showed his A♥Q♥4♣3♥ for a wheel. The 10♠9♣4♥2♥ of Chait was no good and the A♣K♠8♥5♣ of Yockey earned no portion either.

Nível 17 : Limits 15,000/30,000, 0 ante

With several players holding severe short stacks, James Obst and Bryce Yockey chipped up with the former earning a full scoop.

Erik Seidel also won a decent pot off John Hennigan when his A♠J♥5♥4♠ rivered the nuts on the K♠Q♦4♦5♠9♠ board to get one more bet from Hennigan.

The same table then saw the all-in of Paul Zappulla for one full bet only from the cutoff, earning calls from Alan Sternberg and Brad Ruben out of the blinds. Both active players checked to the K♦J♣2♦A♠K♣ river on which Sternberg check-folded to Ruben's bet.

In showdown, Ruben revealed the K♥9♣8♦7♥ for trips kings and Zappulla was eliminated with the A♥Q♠5♦3♠.

Bryce Yockey bet the turn and river of the K♠K♦8♦2♣J♥ board and a seemingly confused Jason Berilgen called it down for the last of his chips. Yockey tabled his A♦J♦5♠4♦ and Berilgen bemoaned "I didn't even see the diamonds ... wait, you don't have a flush?!"

Berilgen then tabled his A♥Q♦8♥4♥ for inferior two pair and a missed low draw to become the second casualty in the money.

"I was in good shape then," he said on his way to the payout desk.

A cat with many lives on his severe short stack, Yuri Dzivielevski eventually got it in again when facing Johannes Becker as he check-called the 8♦4♣3♥ flop and then checked the Q♦ turn. Becker bet, and Dzivielevski had two T-25,000 chips behind, which he tossed into the middle.

There was some confusion about whether that was a call for a full bet of 30,000 or an all-in, to which Becker responded "I am fine with either way". Dzivielevski replied, "I want to go all-in," and so he did, creating the following showdown.

Yuri Dzivielevski: K♥7♥5♥3♣
Johannes Becker: K♠8♥5♣2♠

The A♥ on the river gave Becker the wheel, and Dzivielevski was knocked out in 32nd place.

Nível 17 : Limits 15,000/30,000, 0 ante

Michael Chow was all-in twice and survived the first hand to chip up slightly thanks to a chop while Yuri Dzivielevski was also on the verge of getting eliminated but escaped.

On a flop of J♦4♥3♦, the Brazilian was all-in for 65,000 total and looked up by Corey Hochman.

Yuri Dzivielevski: A♠K♠Q♠2♦
Corey Hochman: A♦J♣10♦2♥

The K♥ turn propelled Dzivielevski into the lead but the 5♥ river gave both a wheel for the full chop.

Chow then limped in and the action continued to a three-way flop of Q♣7♣4♥ on which Kyle Cartwright checked, as did Craig Chait. Chow bet and received two calls.

Cartwright bet the 10♣ turn and Chait folded while Chow called all-in for the last 25,000 chips he had behind.

Michael Chow: A♦J♠6♦3♠
Kyle Cartwright: A♠K♥5♣3♣

Chow was drawing to a low but on very thin ice against the flush of Cartwright. No low came as the 10♦ river burst the money bubble.
