Zvi Groysman Eliminated in 6th Place ($80,884)

Zvi Groysman - 6th place
Zvi Groysman - 6th place

Zvi Groysman raised preflop, and Daniel Idema defended his big blind with a call.

The two men took a flop of {8-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {J-Spades}, and Groysman called a bet of 30,000. That left him with exactly 60,000, and Idema made him put that remainder in on the {Q-Spades} turn.

Idema turned up {J-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} for two pair, and Groysman was in trouble with {A-Hearts} {9-Hearts}, needing a ten to chop or an ace to double up. The river was a blank {6-Hearts}, though, and that's not going to be good enough to keep him around.

Zvi Groysman is our 6th place finisher tonight, stopping off to pick up a check for more than $80,000 on his way to the bar. That'll buy quite a few rounds of drinks.

Groysman Gutted

Matt Keikoan raised from the cutoff, Zvi Groysman three-bet from the button and Keikoan called.

Keikoan checked the {J-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop to Groysman, who bet. Keikoan raised and Groysman called. Groysman called Keikoan down on the {10-Diamonds} turn and the {10-Hearts} river.

Keikoan showed {J-Spades}{3-Spades} for two pair and Groysman mucked. He's on fumes with only 150,000 left in his stack.

Parker Bobs Back Up

Daniel Idema raised from the cutoff seat, and Brock Parker reraised from the button. Idema raised it back, and Parker ended up all in for 120,000 with {K-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}. Idema turned over his {8-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}, behind but drawing live for the knockout.

The flop came suited {7-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {A-Clubs}, and the {3-Clubs} on the river gave Parker the unbeatable flush and secured his double up. Up and down he goes, and now he finds himself back up at 285,000, just keeping his head above water for now.

Keikoan Flushes Parker

"I always defend my blind, Brock. Raising is useless."
"I always defend my blind, Brock. Raising is useless."

Brock Parker raised from the small blind and Matt Keikoan called from the big blind.

Parker led out on the {Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop, Keikoan raised and Parker called. Both players checked the {5-Spades} on the turn. The river was the {2-Clubs} and Parker check-called one more bet.

Keikoan showed {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a flush and took down the pot, leaving Parker on only 115,000 in chips.

Parker in Reverse, Can't Find Drive

Matt Keikoan raised under the gun, and Brock Parker came along from the big blind as the only caller.

The flop rolled out {10-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {2-Diamonds}, and Parker check-called a small bet. He check-called a big one on the {J-Diamonds} turn, and Keikoan fired one last bullet on the {3-Clubs} river. Parker couldn't call the last one; he paused for effect and promptly sent his cards into the muck.

He's down to about 275,000 now.

Idema Pushing Upwards

Zvi Groysman raised from the cutoff seat, and Daniel Idema called to defend his blind. They took a flop of {9-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {K-Spades}, and Idema check-raised Groysman's continuation bet. Groysman called.

Idema led out with a full bet on the {10-Clubs} turn, and Groysman called to see the {8-Clubs} river. One more bet from Idema was enough to win him the pot as Groysman thought better of it and released his hand.
