David Hanlon Out

Level 11 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
David Hanlon
David Hanlon

David Hanlon was eliminated from the feature table early on during level 11. Hanlon was left with 14 big blinds after losing a hand against Jarred Graham after the two got all the chips in pre-flop.

Jarred Graham: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
David Hanlon: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The {8-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} runout was not the one that Hanlon wanted and he dropped down to 43,000, while Graham climbed to around 150,000.

Unfortunately for Hanlon, he was unable to spin this back up and departed shortly afterwards.

Teska Flushes Pritchard, Then Folds to Rafferty

Level 10 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante
Roger Teska
Roger Teska

Roger Teska has been involved in two decent sized pots. In the first, Tom Rafferty opened the action with a raise to 5,500 from the button, with Jason Pritchard making the call from the small blind and Teska calling from the big blind to take the action three-way to a flop of {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}.

This saw the trio check, with the {4-Hearts} coming in on the turn. Pritchard checked, Teska bet 10,000 and both Rafferty and Pritchard called to keep the three in action to the {6-Hearts} river.

Pritchard checked for the third time, Teska bet 25,000, Rafferty folded and Pritchard called but mucked immediately when Teska turned over {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for a flush.

The following hand, Rafferty raised again, making it 5,300 to go from the cutoff. Teska responded with a three-bet to 16,000 from the small blind and after some time in the tank, Rafferty made the call to take play heads-up to a flop of {2-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

Teska led out for 15,000 and Rafferty moved all-in for another 61,000 more to send Teska into the think tank. After several minutes he folded, leaving Rafferty free to scoop the pot without a showdown.

Geoff Mooney
Geoff Mooney

Nauv Kashyap raised to 5,000 from the hijack. Geoff Mooney called from the cutoff. Michael Egan and Julien Sitbon came along from the blinds as well.

All four players checked the {q-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop before the {q-Clubs} dropped on the turn.

Egan checked. Sitbon bet 8,000. Kashyap called. Mooney then moved all in for 31,300. Only Kashyap called.

Mooney: {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
Kashyap: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Mooney had turned a full house and had the lead against Kashyap who made trip queens.

The {8-Clubs} on the river changed nothing Mooney raked in the double up.

Kashyap Doubles Through Abdine

Level 10 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Stacks were being counted down with the community cards spread {3-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} with Shivan Abdine and Nauv Kashyap the two players in contention for the hand. Abdine's hand was already in the muck and he was counting out the chips to payoff Kashyap, who had {a-Spades}{9-Spades} face-up in front of him.

According to tablemate Julien Sitbon, Abdine had {k-}{7-} and the two had got into it pre-flop, which is when all teh chips went in.

Stang and Pritchard Tangle

Level 10 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Tom Rafferty three-bet pre-flop two hands in a row to take the blinds and antes, with Sosia Jiang raise-folding the first, and Bernie Stang raise-folding the second, before a decent sized pot played out between Bernie Stang and Jason Pritchard.

It was Stang the instigator, opening the action for the second hand in a row, making it 7,200 from under-the-gun with Pritchard making the call from the next seat over and the duo saw a rather arid flop of {3-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs}.

First to act, Stang continuation bet 12,600 with Pritchard making a quick call and the dealer burned and turned the {6-Clubs}. That was as far as the hand went, with Pritchard folding to Stang's 27,000 second barrel.
