Kade's Aggression Forces Hyun Lee Out

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Kang Hyun Lee raised to 240,000 from under the gun. Action folded around to Vanessa Kade on the button who jammed for 1,380,000.

Hyun Lee counted down his stack after getting Kade's exact count and even had the correct amount of calling chips separated from the rest of his stack in what appeared to be a good sign that the players would be headed to a runout.

Eventually, though, Hyun Lee slid his cards toward the muck and the dealer pushed the pot to Kade.

Nakamura Takes Big from Le

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

The board 5?9?3?4?7? was already completed with a pot containing more than 1,000,000.

Quoc Le sent 600,000 in the middle and Ricardo Nakamura tanked for some time before opting to call. Le tabled K?J? for king-high and Nakamur flippes over K?K? to claim the pot.

Kang Hyun Lee raised under the gun to 200,000 and it was called by Vanessa Kade before Ian Steinman decided to shove in the cutoff for 1,740,000. Kane Kalas tanked on the button and after asking for the exact count, he jammed with the bigger stack.

Lee and Kade got out of the way and they tabled their cards:

Ian Steinman: A?4?
Kane Kalas: Q?Q?

Steinman didn't find any help throughout the board 2?6?7?3?8? and had to join the rail in the 11th place for a prize worth $15,778.

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Ian Steinman raues under the gun to 200,000 and it folded to Vanessa Kade who called in the big blind.

Mizrachi Adds More to His Stack

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Quoc Le raised on the button to 215,000 and got called by Eric Mizrachi in the big blind.

The flop appeared A?2?5? and Mizrachi check-called Le for 115,000. The same action happened on the 10? turn, this time for 400,000.

The duo checked when the 10? paired the board on the river and Mizrachi showed A?2? for two pair. Le mucked his cards.

Arnold Spee Eliminated in 13th Place ($12,567)

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Arnold Spee
Arnold Spee

Arnold Spee moved all in from early position for 700,000 and was called by Ivan Millian in middle position.

Arnold Spee 6?6?
Ivan Millian: K?K?

It was curtains for Spee, especially after the flop of A?K?3? gave Millian a set of kings and Spee needed the two remaining sixes to go runner-runner quads.

The miracle didn't happen as the 10?2? completed the board and Spee managed to make a few money jumps after being reduced to 10,000 chips earlier in the day.
