Aces and Kings

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

A short-stacked Chris Myers moved all in under the gun for 78,000 and Travell Thomas moved all in over the top. The rest of the players folded and Thomas couldn't believe the bad news.

Thomas: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Myers: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

"King of clubs coming on the river," Thomas bellowed. It was wishful thinking though as the board ran out a dry {j-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}.

Rivers Big Stacking

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

After Anish Bedhia limped, Travell Thomas did the same. When action reached Ryan Rivers on the button, he raised to 40,000, which both limpers called after the blinds folded. Two checks on the {6-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop saw Rivers fire out 60,000, and it did the trick as Bedhia folded and Thomas did the same.

Slow Going

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Since combining to a single table, action has slowed to a crawl. There are a few short stacks though, so as the clock continues to tick they're going to feel the pressure.

Level: 20

Blinds: 6,000/12,000

Mike Feldmeyer Eliminated in 11th Place ($629)

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Mike Feldmeyer - 11th Place
Mike Feldmeyer - 11th Place

Action folded to chip leader Ryan Rivers in the small blind and he simply moved all in to put the pressure on Mike Feldmeyer in the big blind. Feldmeyer called off his last 50,000 or so and discovered he actually got it in good.

Feldmeyer: {k-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
Rivers: {j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

The {7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop gave Rivers a gutshot straight draw, but it was the {8-Clubs} turn that gave him the lead. The {8-Spades} river improved him to trips, which was good enough to send Feldmeyer home in 11th place. The remaining ten players are now combining down to the final table.

Reyes Doubles ... But Doesn't Realize It

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Kevin Reyes
Kevin Reyes

Kevin Reyes moved all in for 71,000 from early position and Alex Visbisky re-shoved from the small blind. The big blind folded, and the hands were turned up.

Reyes: {K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Visbisky: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

The dealer rolled out a {9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs} board, and Reyes got up from the table and started gathering his things. He didn't realize he had the winning pair of nines.

"You won," the dealer told Reyes.

"Oh! I didn't even see the nine!" Reyes responded. And he sat back down.

Despite Reyes' best efforts get get out of here, we're still 11-handed.

George Johnson Eliminatedi n 12th Place ($629)

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
George Johnson
George Johnson

A short-stacked George Johnson moved all in under the gun and Mike Feldmeyer, who was also fairly short, followed his lead and moved all in from the button. The blinds both folded and the cards were turned up.

Johnson: {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Feldmeyer: {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

The {8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{9-Hearts} flop didn't give Johnson much to work with, and neither did the {7-Hearts} turn. The {J-Hearts} river actually paired Johnson, but it was also a heart that gave Feldmeyer a winning flush.
