The UTG player limps in the pot and Doyle Brunson raises to 26,000 from early position. Scott Dorin reraises to 76,000 from the cutoff, UTG folds and Brunson moves all in for 230,000. Dorin tanks for a few minutes before making the call; Dorin has Brunson covered.

Brunson: QQ
Dorin: AQ

Board: AJ7JK

Brunson got it in good, but an ace in the window gave Dorin the better pair. Brunson failed to improve after the flop as he was eliminated in 15th place ($21,357). Dorin grabs the chiplead this hand as he breaks the 1 million-chip mark.

PLO

The turn is the J and once again, Van Alstyne bets the pot, this time enough to put his opponent all in. Friedman calls all in and turns over a jack for trips, but Van Alstyne shows 99 for the full house. The river bricked and Adam Friedman is eliminated in 14th place ($27,719).

The turn ins the 3 and Prescott bets 40,000, leaving himself with 1,000 behind. Yitzakhi puts him all in and both players turn over their cards.

Prescott: 9s
Yitzhaki: JJ

Prescott flopped a set of nines for the lead. The river is the 2, no help to either player as Precott doubles up to 385,000 this hand while Yitzhaki falls down to 280,000 in chips.

Big Hands and Storylines:

Color Me Confused

The tournament information screens in the Brasilia Room for the razz event started off level 9 as a retina-scorching and brain-addling shade of purple that left a number of players shaking their heads in confusion. After one player approached the floor and told him it was difficult to read, the color of the screen was switched to a simple and elegant black. Black. Always in style.

It’s That Easy

Barry Greenstein completed with a seven up and the action folded all the way around the table, giving Greenstein the pot. He showed the table A-2 and asked, “Doesn’t everybody get these?” It’s easy for Greenstein to be in good spirits as he is currently among the chip leaders with 42,000.

Jungblut Eliminated

Brett Jungblut got all-in on 3^rd street in a capped 4-way pot with Michael Kushner, Ellen Mead, and Trung Ly. Unsurprisingly, with a board of 6A43, Ly led the betting on every street. Mead folded on 6^th street after being dealt a king. After the final round of betting, the players showed their downcards. Ly’s 6-5-2 made him a wheel, rendering his opponents’ hands irrelevant, and eliminating Brett Jungblut.

Violette Takes Big Hit, Eliminated Shortly After

On 6^th street, with a board reading AT82, Nikolay Evdakov bet 1,200 into Cyndy Violette. Violette, with only 2,000 left and a board of 61094, decided to fold and pick a better spot. Unfortunately, no better spot would arrive and she was eliminated a few hands later.

Event 9 - $1,500 six handed NLHE - Level 11

Jun 06, '08

Blinds: 800-1,600 (200 Ante), moving up to 1,000-2,000 (300 Ante)

Average Chip Stack: 72,706

Eliminations: Shankar Pillai, Allie Prescott, Jared Hamby

Players Remaining: 53

Young Guns

Ryan Young moved all-in preflop for his last 12,000. Richard Tatalovich went into the tank for several minutes before making the call, showing Q10, while Young sheepishly flipped over Q5. The poker gods smiled on Young, however, and the board ran out 86374, and Young makes a straight to double up and stay alive.

Young continued to chip up over the next several hands. On a board reading 875610, Young made a bet of 5,500 on the river. He was called by Gavin Kelley, who mucked his hand after Young rolled over 98 for another straight. Young received yet another major boost to his stack just a few hands later, courtesy of Jared Hamby. Young and Hamby had all the chips in the middle preflop, with Young showing AJ and Hamby showing 66. The flop of K96 left Young drawing thin, but running spades (83) gave Young a backdoor flush. Hamby was eliminated, and Young continued to pad his stack, sitting behind over 50,000 in chips.

Prescott Packs It Up

On a flop of J43, Allie Prescott checked from the small blind. Jonas Danielsson led out for 4,000, and was called by both Thomas Fuller, in the cutoff, and Prescott. The turn brought the 2, Prescott and Danielsson both checked, and Fuller fired 10,000. Prescott thought for a moment before moving all in, folding Danielsson but prompting a snap-call from Fuller, who tabled the A5 for a straight-flushed wheel. Prescott turned over 5-6 for a turned straight, was drawing dead, and headed home.

The Mountain Moves

Matt Matros lost his chip lead early in the level in a big hand with Peter Marr. Avery Cardoza open raised to 4,000, but found himself reraised to 13,000 by Matt Matros out of the small blind, who was then flat called by Marr in the big blind. Cardoza folded, and the flop came J97. Both players checked, and the turn brought the 5. Matros led out for 19,000, and Marr made the call. The river put a four-flush on the board with the Q. Matros checked, and Marr moved all in behind him. Matros eventually folded the hand, and Marr flashed AJ before raking in the swollen pot, which gave Marr the chip lead with over 150,000.
