Max Stern Eliminated in 3rd Place ($64,484)

Not so Stern after all
Not so Stern after all
Max Stern lost another (relative) biggie, when his eight-low and ace-ten high got scooped by David Halpern's six-low and ace-jack high.

Down to just 10,000 after that, Stern had little hope of recovering and got his last in the next hand; both his opponents called.

Stern: {7-Spades} {10-Spades} {2-Hearts} {7-Clubs} (mucked)
Halpern: {10-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} {J-Spades} {9-Spades} ({10-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds})
Kohler: {6-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {K-Spades} ({A-Clubs} {5-Spades} {2-Clubs})

To a round of applause, we lose our last Costa Rican, and we are heads up.

Stern and Low

A small loss for Max Stern as he made it all the way to 7th street, then let Halpern pick up the pot.

Halpern: {Q-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {9-Hearts} ({Q-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {5-Spades})
Stern: {5-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} {J-Clubs} ({6-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} and he mucked the last one)

-----

Stern chopped a hand with William Kohler after that, but then got involved with Kohler a second time not long after.

They made it as far as 6th street, Kohler betting all the way, before Stern folded. He's now down to 100,000, while Kohler is up to 1.05 million.

Stern: {K-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {3-Hearts}
Kohler: {A-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {K-Spades} {J-Clubs}

Matt Savage Eliminated in 5th Place ($32,465)

Matt finish
Matt finish
To applause from all, Matt Savage has finally bitten the tournament dust.

After recovering from a teeny tiny stack yesterday to decent chips at one point today, he couldn't recover from his last couple of hits and moved in on 3rd street with the {A-Diamonds} showing, called by David Halpern.

Savage: {A-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {3-Spades} {10-Clubs} {J-Spades} X
Halpern: {5-Spades} {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {10-Hearts}

Halpern breaks the magic million mark, and Savage hits the rail.

Matt Savaged

A small scooped pot for Max Stern represents a massive spot of bother for Matt Savage -- he's down to just 40,000 after that.

Savage: {2-Spades} {5-Spades} {9-Spades} {A-Diamonds} ({8-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {8-Clubs})
Stern: {K-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {4-Hearts} ({A-Spades} {7-Clubs} {K-Spades})

Stern up to 310,000, by the by.

Zak Gilbert Busto in 6th Place ($24,828)

Down to plain shrapnel after Matt Savage made aces and deuces on 7th street to beat his queens and fours, it was a swift and clinical matter for Zak Gilbert.

Gilbert: {2-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {K-Spades} {10-Spades} {Q-Clubs}
Halpern: {K-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {3-Spades} {K-Hearts} {A-Spades} {4-Diamonds}

With an unrestrained-now-he-was-away-from-the-table, "F*** f*** f*** f***!" Gilbert attempted to hand his payout slip to your blogger, but was escorted to the payout desk by a floor man before we could take advantage.
