Lehr Latest to Bust

frankvisser

Niveau 18 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Adam Hendrix opened from under the gun for 125,000 chips. Keith Lehr was in the cutoff and three-bet the pot to 450,000, leaving roughly 220,000 chips behind. The action folded back to Hendrix, who made the call.

The flop came 9♦8♠6♠ and Lehr quipped: "Go ahead and check, I'm betting in the dark." Hendrix was unimpressed by Lehr antics, however, and opted to bet Lehr's remaining chips himself. Lehr made the call and their cards hit the felt.

Keith Lehr: A♦A♣K♣9♥
Adam Hendrix: Q♣10♦9♣8♠

Hendrix outlflopped Lehr's aces with two pair, and when the turn came the 8♥, he improved to a full house. The 2♦ river was a big blank and Lehr exited the tournament with five tables remaining.

Niveau 18 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

There have been some chip changes over on table 141 as Pakinai Lisawad stormed ahead of Krasimir Yankov. Another showdown unfolded when two players with middling stacks got it in and Rick Salomon was at risk but barely covered by Aaron Katz.

Aaron Katz:A♥A♣Q♣8♣

The board ran out 9♥5♠2♥6♥9♦ and the aces held to knock out Salomon.

Some table chatter broke out and Katz said "he can afford it" while talking with the others and Keith Lehr one table over.

"He is the biggest winner in poker ... he plays against a billionaire every day," Katz added when referring to Salomon.

Niveau 17 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Dash Dudley min-raised the button and earned a call from Eelis Pärssinen out of the big blind. They checked the K♠J♥5♣ flop and Pärssinen then bet the 7♠ turn for 220,000, picking up a call from Dudley.

Pärssinen also bet the 8♠ river for 425,000 and Dudley immediately sighed, then murmured to himself. The reluctant call by Dudley followed and Pärssinen tabled the A♠8♦6♦4♠ for the nut flush.

Lamb Led to the Slaughter

frankvisser

Niveau 16 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

The action was caught once all the cards had already been dealt. Ben Lamb had gone all-in at some point and Danny Hannawa was the one that put him at risk.

Ben Lamb: Q♠Q♣J♠J♦
Danny Hannawa: A♠A♣9♦Xx

The completed board read K♥4♥8♠9♠7♥ and Lamb had received no help to crack Hannawa's aces. He left the tournament area as his table was getting ready to break afterward.

Isaac Haxton was also at the now broken table and he was seen leaving with nearly a million chips in his rack.

The 5♦ turn and 7♦ river improved Cohen to a straight and jack-high flush alike but the same river card gave Lonis the ace-high flush for yet another knockout.

Niveau 15 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

There were three open seats on table 139 with one knockout and a double-elimination recently.

Bryce Yockey had his stack reduced to fumes with K♠K♣J♠6♦ for flopped top set on K♦5♦4♥. He was still ahead on the Q♥ turn against the J♠10♦9♦7♥ of Conrad de Armas, but the 3♦ river gave De Armas a winning flush.

Yockey departed soon after and Elias Harala then sent two opponents to the rail. The cards of George Wolff were already mucked while Roussos Koliakoudakis had the K♠J♠10♥9♥ exposed. Harala's A♥A♠7♣5♣ rivered aces full on the Q♠10♦4♦10♠A♦ runout to reduce the field by two.

Steven Veneziano: K♣Q♦J♣9♠
Kabeelan Rajamurthy: 7♦6♣5♠4♠
Phil Ivey: A♠A♦9♥7♥
