Barry "The Beast" Kruger Eliminated in 6th Place ($1,193)

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Barry Kruger
Barry Kruger

After Barry "The Beast" Kruger raised preflop and Kevin Volz called from the small blind, the flop came down {10-Spades}{3-Spades}{10-Hearts} and a raising war saw them get a lot of chips in the middle.

Kruger: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}
Volz: {a-Spades}{6-Spades}

Kruger seemed devastated that his flush draw was no good, and he began calling for a queen. The {2-Clubs} turn wasn't it, and neither was the {K-Spades} river. Both players made a flush, but of course the ace-high one of Volz was best. Kruger was left with just 160,000 after the hand while Volz vaulted to 1.65 million.

In the very next hand, action folded to Andy Spears in the small blind and he moved all in to put the pressure on Kruger, who thought for a bit before calling off his last 85,000.

Kruger: {5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Spears: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Kruger was behind, but he was drawing to two live cards. The {3-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{j-Clubs} flop was as dry as could be, and the {10-Spades} turn actually left him drawing dead. The meaningless {A-Clubs} was run out on the river for good measure, and Kruger shook hands with each of the remaining five players before exiting the tournament area.

Jim Burkett Eliminated in 7th Place ($917)

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante

Jim Burkett

Jim Burkett moved all in preflop for his last 115,000 from middle position, and action folded over to Kevin Volz in the big blind. He crunched the numbers and elected to call.

Burkett: {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Volz: {K-Spades}{8-Spades}

Once again, Burkett got it in ahead. And once again, he came up second best. The {10-Spades}{3-Spades}{10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts} gave Volz a better two pair, sending Burkett to the rail.

Tom Mistretta Eliminated in 8th Place ($573)

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Tom Mistretta - 8th Place
Tom Mistretta - 8th Place

Kevin Volz limped from the hijack and a short-stacked Tom Mistretta, who let himself dwindle to just 30,000, decided to call off from the cutoff. Barry Kruger checked his option from the big blind and then both active players checked the {7-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop as well as the {10-Diamonds} turn.

When the {5-Diamonds} completed the board on the river, Kruger checked for a third time and then folded when Volz bet 60,000. Volz tabled the {8-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for a rivered straight, which bested the {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flopped pair of sevens for Mistretta.

Todd Saffron Eliminated in 9th Place ($573)

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Todd Saffron moved all in for his last 100,000 from the cutoff, and Jonathan Cosme re-raised to 200,000 from the small blind. Kevin Volz released from the big blind, and the cards were turned up.

Saffron: {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Cosme: {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

The {4-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{8-Spades} board missed both players, so Cosme's ace kicker finished best. Saffron exited in ninth place after an up-and-down evening at the tables.

Volz Closing in on a Million

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 4,000 ante

Andy Spears opened for 80,000 under the gun and only Kevin Volz, who was in the small blind, looked him up. Both players checked the {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop, and then Spears called a bet of 120,000 from Volz on the {4-Hearts} turn. The action repeated itself on the {3-Clubs} river, and Volz seemed to think he was beat.

"I've got a four," he said sheepishly before showing the {4-Clubs}{5-Spades}. As it turned out, that was good as Spears sent his cards to the muck unseen.
