Limit Again; Down to 5 Tables

Jun 25, '07

The game has switched back to Limit Holdem, as the sixth table in play has just been brokem.  Notable eliminations include Paul Sexton in 59th ($2,920), and "Miami John" Cernuto in 54th ($3,554).

Karlo Lopez was moved into quite a predicament as he is now in the one-seat, next to Jeff Lisandro in two, and Michael Craig in three. Look for fireworks when the game flips back to No-Limit.

J.C. Tran was invovled in a big swing in the last level.  Tran was involved in a three-way pot with the players in Seat 6 and Seat 1, but Seat 1 was all in preflop.  The flop came Q Q 3, Tran bet $5,000 and Seat 6 raised all in for $23,000 more.  Tran made the call after lots of thought, but hated the results as his 9 9 were far behind Seat 6's A Q. The 5 and the K came on the turn and river, and Tran was crippled.  Tran was able to double up soon after, and used aggressive play after to get his chips back to a comfortable level.

Jeff Lisandro took the chip lead, jumping to $65,500, when he raise a shortstack all-in prefolp on a no-limit round. He flipped over AK while his opponent could muster only KQ. The board came 87774 and his opponenet was out in 53rd place.

Briton Peter Gould has around $47,000 in chips.
