The Best of Battaglia

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
David Battaglia
David Battaglia

David Battaglia had kings versus {a-}{q-} all in preflop, and {a-}{k-} over the {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs} all in preflop, winning both hands without much of a sweat.

The perennial threat to run deep her at Seneca now has 650,000, and all the confidence in the world.

Boutelle Busts Dojka To Jump Into Contention

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Kurtis Boutelle
Kurtis Boutelle

Tony Dojka made it 30,000 with the {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}. Kurtis Boutelle called with the {a-Spades}{j-Spades}.

The flop came king-high with two spades, and when Dojka led for 70,000, Boutelle shoved for 228,000. Dojka tank-called for his tournament life and close to 200,000. Boutelle made his flush on the {10-Spades} turn.

With Dojka out, Boutelle has a built a contending stack once again.

Wagner Through LaRouech

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

As the short stacks around the room shove in a mad dash to min-cash, Dan Wagner has made a move up the leaderboard.

He got it in on for almost 200,000 on a queen-high flop with kings against Ray LaRouech on top-top. Wagner spiked a king on the turn and LaRouech missed a gutter to Broadway on the end.

Berry Bubbles

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Michael Tieu raised under the gun with fives and called off when Kevin Berry shoved big slick for 65,000 in the big blind.

Berry whiffed the board and took bubble boy honors. The 45 players remaining are now on a break and will return to play all in the money now.

McNeely Out, Hand-For-Hand on the Bubble Now

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Geoff McNeely
Geoff McNeely

Down to 170,000, Jason Schloss shoved tens, Geoff McNeely called all-in with kings for 130,000, and looked good to double up with the rest of the table folding and a huge statistical edge.

A ten on the flop turned things around and Schloss busted McNeely. With that, there are 46 players remaining and hand-for-hand play has commenced on the stone money bubble.
