Howard Wolper Eliminated in 9th Place ($14,508)

9th Place - Howard Wolper
9th Place - Howard Wolper
Action folded around to Michael Martin in the cutoff seat. Martin raised to 15,000. Howard Wolper moved all in from the big blind and Martin called immediately. The players showed:

Martin: {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Wolper: {A-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

The flop missed Wolper, coming down {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{4-Spades}. The crowd cheered, clearly on Martin's side. The turn brought the {10-Diamonds}. Again a collective sigh of relief was heard from the gallery. The {Q-Diamonds} on the river sealed the deal and Martin's pair of threes were best. Wolper casually headed for the payout table where he will collect $14,508 for his strong finish in this event.

A Shortage of Action

The Gallery Looks On
The Gallery Looks On
After a series of hands without action, a bored fan jokingly yelled out, "When is the next flop scheduled?"

The tournament director casually joked over the P.A., "I believe we're in flop conservation mode."

Bernard Lee and Keith Murrell Mix It Up

Action folded around to Keith Murrell and he limped in from late position. Dan Jensen passed from the small blind and Bernard Lee checked his big blind option. They went heads up to the flop of {10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. Lee led out for 23,500 and Murrell folded. Bernard Lee took down the pot.

Action Update

Of the 20 hands seen thus far, only three have seen a flop. With the exception of the Koenemann double-up, we've yet to see a showdown or even a turn card.

Ron Koenemann Doubles Through Samuel Shamburg

Ron Koenemann raised to 18,000 from middle position. Action folded around to Samuel Shamburg in the big blind who moved all in. Shamburg had Koenemann covered so it was Koenemann at risk. He made the call and the players showed:

Koenemann: {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Shamburg: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}

Shamburg had Koenemann in a bad spot, but the flop of {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{7-Clubs} gave Koenemann outs. The {J-Clubs} on the turn was just what he needed to take the lead. The {Q-Diamonds} on the river helped neither player and Koenemann's flush was best. He doubled through Sam Shamburg.

Slow and Steady

Of the eight hands played thus far, only one has seen a flop. Preflop raises have been successfully winning the blinds and antes. Nicholas Manganaro took the only pot to see a flop when his lone opponent, Bernard Lee, folded to Manganaro's continuation bet.
