Kempton Pressures Calderaro Out

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

The flop read {q-Spades}{4-Hearts}{k-Spades}. From the cutoff, James Calderaro bet 200,000 after it was checked to him by Isaac Kempton who called the bet.

The turn came the {k-Hearts}. Kempton checked and Calderaro bet 550,000 which Kempton called after a while.

The river was the {9-Hearts}. Kempton turned the tables and led out with an all in jam. Calderaro folded after about five seconds and Kempton took down the nice pot.

Thomas Boyden Eliminated in 17th Place ($16,179)

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Thomas Boyden
Thomas Boyden

Robert Manjura opened to 150,000 from under the gun and Thomas Boyden moved all in for around 700,000. Manjura snap-called and the two turned over their cards.

Thomas Boyden: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Robert Manjura: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

It was a classic flip between the two and the dealer then fanned out {10-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Spades} on the flop, leaving Manjura in the lead as Boyden needed to pair up or was going to be eliminated.

The {3-Hearts} turn and {6-Diamonds} failed to improve the hand of Boyden, sending out the door in sixteenth place for $16,179.

Jason Klapman Eliminated in 18th Place ($16,179)

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Jason Klapman
Jason Klapman

Jason Klapman was all in preflop for about 625,000, Paul Balzano had the chips committed to challenge his all in. Fares Santana was in the big blind and thought for a bit but eventually he gave it up.

Jason Klapman {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Paul Balzano {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}

Klapman was in good position to secure a double up but the flop had other ideas as it came {6-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. The turn was the {a-Diamonds} and the river came the {3-Hearts} to send Klapman home in 18th place.

Serda had the {q-Clubs}{7-} against the {a-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} of Balzano.

The board would not save Serda as it came {k-Spades}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} and he became the final elimination before the two table redraw.

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
John O'Neal
John O'Neal

Cameron Marshall opened to 135,000 from the button and John Ott called in the small blind, creating a side pot as John O'Neal was automatically all-in for his final 50,000 in the big blind before the cards were even dealt.

The flop came down {k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and action checked to the {6-Hearts} turn card. Ott bet and Marshall ducked out, leaving just two.

John O'Neal: {4-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
John Ott: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}

O'Neal was drawing dead to the {4-Spades} river card, sending the pot to Ott as O'Neal took a walk to the payout desk.
