Per Hildebrand Eliminated in 7th Place ($24,081)

Nível 26 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 0 ante

Stud Hi-Lo

Per Hildebrand: K♠2♠/A♥5♦7♠Q♦/10♥
Tamon Nakamura: Q♠Q♣/8♦7♣J♠10♣/5♥
Jason Pedigo: XxXx/2♥ - folded bring-in

After Per Hildebrand completed Jason Pedigo's bring-in, Tamon Nakamura made it two bets to go. This shed Pedigo, but the short-stacked Hildebrand came along.

Hildebrand bet fourth street and got a call, then after he bet fifth street, Nakamura raised, and Hildebrand called off for his final few chips.

Nakamura was ahead with queens, but Hildebrand had ace-king to try to catch the high, or any low card to chop.

Unfortunately for the Swede, he failed to pair or catch a low card on the final two streets, leaving Nakamura's queens the sole winner in the pot to send Hildebrand home in seventh place.

Steinman, with 420,000 remaining, tanked for several minutes as he counted down his stack several times and asked what the next blind level will be. He eventually slammed his chips in the middle and Nakamura turned over A♦4♥ for the straight.

"Nice hand," Steinman said with an air of resignation as he showed 9♦8♦. The river came the 4♦ and Steinman, who battled back from a short stack multiple times today, was finally eliminated in fifth place.

Chambers Takes the Chip Lead

Nível 27 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 0 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

Ryutaro Suzuki has held the chip lead for virtually the entire final table, but he has recently ceded that lead to Walter Chambers.

In a battle in the blinds, Chambers raised the small blind and Suzuki called in the big blind.

On the 9♦8♥10♣ flop, Chambers bet and Suzuki called, then on the K♣ turn Suzuki called another bet from Chambers.

This set up the 3♦ river, and once more, Chambers bet. Suzuki gave it some thought before he spiked in a call.

Chambers announced a jack-high straight, showing A♦J♣9♣7♣, which prompted Suzuki to send his losing cards to the muck.

Nakamura Quadruples Up

Nível 28 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 0 ante

Limit Hold 'em

Under the gun and seeing this would be the last hand of Limit Hold 'em before the game changed to No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw, Tamon Nakamura excitedly spiked his last 225,000 chips forward, which got calls from all three opponents at the table.

"Quadruple up!" said Nakamura before any further cards were dealt.

All three opponents checked the whole way on the 5♦10♥J♦Q♦K♣ board, with everyone then revealing their hands.

Tamon Nakamura: K♠10♦
Ryutaro Suzuki: J♠8♣
Jason Pedigo: 6♠6♦
Walter Chambers: Q♥3♥

No one had better than Chambers' pair of queens, except for Nakamura who indeed did quadruple up with his two pair, kings and tens.
