Kuhn Gets Aggressive With Pocket Threes

Level 41 : 120,000/240,000, 30,000 ante

Ross "BlueTang" Gottlieb opened under the gun for 480,000 and Robert "bustinballs" Kuhn three-bet jammed for 6,833,175 from the big blind. Action was back on Gottlieb who snap-called.

Robert "bustinballs" Kuhn: {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Ross "BlueTang" Gottlieb: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Kuhn woke up in a bad spot and things got worse after the {9-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop gave Gottlieb a set of ladies.

The {6-Spades} turn left Kuhn drawing dead and the {7-Clubs} river gave Gottlieb the massive double-up with five players left.

Drew "dudeguydrew" O'Connell Eliminated in 6th Place ($20,365.83)

Level 40 : 100,000/200,000, 25,000 ante

Alan "GladiusIII" Goehring limped in from the small blind, and Drew "dudeguydrew" O'Connell jammed for 3,803,270. Goehring called, having O'Connell barely covered.

Drew "dudeguydrew" O'Connell : {a-Hearts}{8-Spades}
Alan "GladiusIII" Goehring: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

The {5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{k-Hearts} flop was safe for Goehring, but the {4-Spades} gave O'Connell a gunshot. The {10-Hearts} river bricked off, and Goehring knocked out O'Connell.

Timothy "aceviper" Stearns Eliminated in 7th Place ($15,307.65)

Level 40 : 100,000/200,000, 25,000 ante

Action on the table folded around to Robert "bustinballs" Kuhn who raised all in for 8,594,759 from the small blind and Timothy "aceviper" Stearns called for less from the big blind holding 1,111,520 from the big blind.

Timothy "aceviper" Stearns: {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Robert "bustinballs" Kuhn: {k-Spades}{10-Spades}

Stearns held the better hand and connected with the {8-Hearts}{9-Spades}{q-Hearts} flop but it also gave Kuhn the straight draw.

The {4-Spades} turn added more outs to Kuhn's hand and the {j-Diamonds} river completed his straight to send Stears out in seventh place.

Robert "BustinBalls" Kuhn raised to 400,000 from middle position, and Scott "miamicane" Davies three-bet shoved for 2,062,092 from the button. Kuhn tanked for a bit, then made the call.

Scott "miamicane" Davies: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Robert "BustinBalls" Kuhn: {4-Hearts}{4-Spades}

Davies was looking to win the flip to continue his hunt for a second WSOP Bracelet, but he would be left wanting after an {8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{10-Hearts} board kept Kuhn's fours in command.

Level 39 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

Ross "BlueTang" Gottlieb opened under the gun for 360,000 and Louie Anthony "xILoUieIx" Torres three-bet jammed for 1,625,444. The blinds folded and action was back on Gottlieb who called.

Louie Anthony "xILoUieIx" Torres: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Ross "BlueTang" Gottlieb: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

Gottlieb was ahead with his made hand and nothing changed after the {2-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{q-Hearts} flop.

The {j-Clubs} turn gave added more outs to Louie Torres as he picked up a broadway draw but the {j-Hearts} paired the board on the river ending their tournament in ninth place.

Randy "StayAlive" Ohel was lurking in the big blind with {10-}{10-}, however, and he would end up with a set to send the final nine players to the final table.

Jeffrey "bortzork" Miller: {k-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}
Ross "BlueTang" Gottlieb: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
