On Dinner Break
Jun 30, '07
Perhaps Noah Boeken and Marcello Del Grosso are clairvoyant. While sitting in adjacent seats they were sharing a meal. It is possible both knew they would be busted out before the dinner break and wanted to get their meal in early. Boeken was the first to go as he moved all in with A
Q
and was called by A
A. He received no help and was eliminated in 40th place earning $15,578. Del Grosso managed to last till the next pay bump, but he eventually bowed out in 35th place earning $18,546.
Nick Frangos lost a race with pocket tens versus K-Q and was eliminated in 32nd place earning the same payout.
Jennifer took a few hits this last level. Tilly first doubled through Klein Bach with Jacks up. Only a few hands later Bach moved all in under the gun, and groaned when Tilly re-raised all in to isolate him. She turned over A-K to his J-2. There was an Ace and a Jack on the flop, but the turn was the 2, making Bach his own Jacks-up to double up himself. On the next to last hand before the break, Joe Pelton exacted some revenge on Tilly, when he defended against her $35,000 raise from the big blind, and called her $47,000 continuation bet on the Q 7
6. They both checked the 8s and the Kc on the turn and river, Tilly announced she had sixes and Pelton showed 10 7 to take the pot.
Eugene Todd was the last player eliminated before the dinner break. Joe Pelton raised to $35,000 from the cutoff, Todd re-raised all in, and Pelton called. Pelton showed A A and Todd was in bad shape with 9 9. The board ran out Ks 10 6 K 7, and Todd was eliminated in 31st place, earning $18,546.
There are currently 30 players left on 4 tables. They will be on dinner break until 11pm.
