Joe Hachem Eliminated in 14th Place ($7,626)

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
Joe Hachem
Joe Hachem

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

James Woods raised from the button to 43,000 and was re-raised all-in to 159,000 by Joe Hachem. After a brief moment, Woods called and the two went heads-up to the single draw with Hachem all-in and at-risk.

Each player drew one card. After all the dust had settled it was the {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} for an eight-six low for Woods that bested the paired holdings of {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs} held by Hachem after his final draw card had been revealed.

With this hand, Hachem was eliminated in 14th place and took home $7,626 in cash.

John Racener

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Robert McLaughlin was in the big blind and called the open-shove of John Racener, who was the shortest stack at the table. McLaughlin patted while Racener took one card and the former revealed the {10-}{9-}{8-}{7-}{2-}.

Racener had plenty of outs with his {6-}{5-}{4-}{2-} draw but bricked it with a {k-} as the final card to bow out in 15th place for a payday of $7,626.

Matusow Claims Pot Against Liberto

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Limit Hold'em

In a battle cutoff versus button, Justin Liberto check-called the {9-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{j-Clubs} turn when facing a bet by Mike Matusow. The {a-Hearts} fell on the river and Liberto checked once more. Matusow now bet and earned a reluctant call by Liberto, revealing {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} as the winning hand.

"I wasn't going to bet again after you called the turn," Matusow mentioned in table chat and then added "they let me win a pot on Day 3, now I could win a hundred pots."

Matusow Shows Trips

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

While the next hand unfolded, Robert McLaughlin said "I should have folded in the other hand" over to Justin Liberto, who won a bigger pot recently to chip back up to more than a million in chips.

In the meanwhile, Mike Matusow raised the button to 31,000 and Young Phan called in the big blind. The flop brought {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and Phan check-folded to a bet worth 45,000. Matusow exposed the {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{j-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for trips jacks and raked in the pot.

Julia Wins One Without Showdown

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

Right before the blinds went up, Kenny Hsiung tangled with Nicholas Julia and the latter bet all the way on a board of {10-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{k-Hearts}{4-Clubs}. When Hsiung was in the tank on the river facing a bet by Julia, he got a little dig by the chip leader who said "I can't wait to see that crap hand."

Hsiung got out of the way and Julia claimed the pot.
