Player Tags: Chris Karagulleyan, Kofi Farkye Chris Ferguson Takes the Chiplead Feb 24, '09 Kofi Farkye raised to 24,000 and Chris Ferguson reraised to 76,000 behind. Farkye made the call and the flop came AQ6. Both players checked and the turn was the 7. Farkye bet 120,000 and Ferguson made the call. The river was the 3 and Farkye moved all in for 600,000. Ferguson, who had 376,000 behind, decided to make the call. Farkye could only show 65 for a small pair, but Ferguson showed AK for top pair, top kicker and the massive pot. Farkye now has 240,000 while Ferguson takes the chip lead with 1.184 million. Player Tags: Chris Ferguson, Kofi Farkye Paul Wasicka Wins Huge Pot Feb 24, '09 Paul Wasicka raised preflop and was called by Kofi Farkye on the button and Payman Arjang in the big blind. The flop came 743 and Arjang bet 20,000. Wasicka called and so did Farkye. The turn was the 8 and Arjang checked. Wasicka also checked and then Farkye bet 45,000. Arjang called and Wasicka called. The river was the 3 and Arjang check once again. This time, Wasicka bet 100,000. Farkye went into the tank for about 3 minutes before folding and Arjang made the call. Wasicka showed AA and Arjang mucked his hand. Wasicka now has 510,000 in chips.

Garza held A-3 and Farkye flipped up pocket tens for a set. The turn and river bricked out and Garza was eliminated in 46th place ($27,395). These two have a history together as they dueled on the way to a sixth place (Garza) and fifth place (Farkye) finish at the North American Poker Championship in 2007. To top it off, Farkye, playing as RedSoxSox, was involved in an online controversy that was initially investigated because of Garza, who plays as Action Jeff. Player Tags: Jeff Garza, Kofi Farkye Kofi Takes a Hit Feb 24, '09 Kofi Farkye bet 30,000 from the small blind and Justin Scott raised to 105,000 from the big blind with J63J6 sitting on the table alongside a healthy-sized pot.

Liz Lieu Cracks Aces Liz Lieu was all in with pocket tens against her opponent's pocket aces. The flop and turn were blanks, but the ten on the river was enough for Lieu to double up over 100,000 in chips.
