James Claims Scotty Nguyen's Bounty

ChrisBean

Nível 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Fresh from coming fourth in the $1,500 Short Deck for $31,307, Robert James jumped into the Hall of Fame Bounty and found himself on the same table as Scotty Nguyen.

Within two levels of sitting down and before the dinner break, James got into a raising confrontation with Nguyen with all the chips going into the middle with the Hall of Famer at risk for 113,000.

Scotty Nguyen: KxKx
Robert James: A♣4♣

James spiked an Ax on the turn and was good enough to crack Nguyen's pocket kings. 'Scotty Baby' headed to the exit, while James claimed the $2,013 bounty and is now freerolling the tournament.

Leal Eliminates Brunson Just Before the Break

Nível 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

In a hand relayed to PokerNews by John Leal, the two players ended up all-in before the flop.

Todd Brunson: A♣5♣
John Leal: 9♥9♦

Leal was in good shape to score the elimination, but the 3♥4♥7♦ flop would give Brunson a double gut-shot to go along with an ace as cards needed to survive.

However, the 7♣ on the turn and the 7♠ on the river left Brunson with the second-best hand and Leal scooping a bounty worth $2,016.

Opponent "Soul Reads" Coutinho

Nível 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Action caught up to hand between Vitor De Souza Coutinho in late position and a player in middle position on a board reading 10♦4♥J♠J♥.

"If you don't have a jack you're way behind," said Coutinho's opponent after moving all-in over Coutinho's turn bet.

Coutinho would make the call and the cards were on their backs.

Middle Position Player: A♦A♣
Vitor De Souza Coutinho: K♣Q♦

"You're drawing stone dead," said the middle position player as the dealer put out the 9♦, completing Coutinho's king-high straight and sending the middle position player to the rail.

"Oh well, I soul-read you," mentioned the player on his way out of the tournament area. "Your artery was pumping," said the player, eliciting a laugh from Coutinho.

Lin Causes Carnage to Bust and Perelman to Triple Up

ChrisBean

Nível 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Under-the-gun blind raised to 1,000 and Ren Lin announced "Double-straddle!" and blind raised to 2,000 in early position. The cutoff called and Garett Mayberry on the button raised to 7,000.

Rob Perelman in the small blind raised to 26,300, leaving 100 behind. Lin took the first look at his cards and his eyes lit up and moved all in for 37,300 and added a $100 bill to the pot as a bounty. Mayberry made the call and Perelman threw in his last 100 chip.

Rob Perelman: A♦K♦
Ren Lin: 10♠9♠
Garett Mayberry: K♥Q♥

Perelman was ahead when the cards were turned over with ace-high, but the queen on the Q♣7♦3♣ flop gave Mayberry the lead. The 2♦ on the turn left Lin drawing dead but gave Perelman a flush draw.

The J♦ on the river gave Perelman the flush to secure a triple up, while Lin laughed his way to the exit and Mayberry took in the side pot as well as a $100 bill.
