Recent Eliminations

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

The rate of attrition is starting to pick up again and we're now down to just 18 players after the eliminations of Samuel Ngai and Dave Heskin.

Heskin was eliminated at the hands of Aarno Kiveliou before Ngai called an all-in preflop with {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} against Vince Moro's {Q-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}, only to be crippled down to 26,000 after the board of {2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} was spread, giving Moro the flush. Ngai was sent to the rail only moments later.

Meanwhile, Joel Gaffney has caught a timely double-up through Peter Karam when they got their money in on a flop of {6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{8-Spades}; though Karam was ahead with {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, Gaffney completed his straight with {8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} after the turn and river ran out {A-Hearts}, {5-Hearts}. Anton Wigg delivered the finishing blow, but the dealer had already mucked the hands before we got a chance to see what they were. No matter - you could clearly tell that Karam wasn't happy with what had transpired.
