Ferguson re-raises $950 more. His opponent re-raises all in for $150 more and Ferguson makes the call. Ferguson shows A[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG] while his opponent shows 10[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]10[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]. The board comes J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]5[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]5[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]9[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]3[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG] and leaves Ferguson crippled with only $75 in chips. Tue Jul 11 15:30:00 PDT 2006 Chris Ferguson Eliminated Chris "Jesus" Ferguson has been eliminated. Tue Jul 11 15:36:00 PDT 2006 Liebert Busts Through Forced All-In Kathy Liebert raises in the small blind and Jose Torres re-raises all-in. Liebert then puts all of her chips in her hands and stretches them out, toward the pot but does not put them in. She expresses that she knows she's beaten and puts her chips back, but the floor manager was called because the motion she made could have constituted a call. The floor manager decides that Liebert must call all-in with her remaining $1,500 and she puts her chips in the pot with only modest protest, but says that she knows Torres must have Aces. Sure enough, Torres flips over A[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]A[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG] and Liebert flips over Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]. The flop is scary for Torres, however, when it comes J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]10[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]9[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG], giving Liebert an open-ended straight draw and a backdoor flush draw, along with the other two Queens. The turn hits another spade with the 7[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG], giving Liebert even more outs and putting Torres on edge. The flop comes 5[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG], a blank, and Torres takes down the pot and eliminates Liebert. His stack is now at $12,125. He later asks a Card Player reporter, "Did you get what came out of me after I saw the flop?" as he points to his card cover -- fake, plastic feces. Tue Jul 11 15:51:00 PDT 2006 Queens are Good for Harley Hall Harley Hall and his opponents get all of their chips in the middle before the flop. Hall has Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG] while his opponent has 9[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]8[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]. The board comes 6[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]3[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]2[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]2[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]10[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG] and Hall busts a short stack. Tue Jul 11 16:04:00 PDT 2006 Matt Lefkowitz Flops a Straight Flush Matt Lefkowitz raises to $425 from mid-position and Jose Torres calls. The flop comes J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]10[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]9[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]. Torres bets $900 and Lefkowitz calls. The turn is the 7[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]. Both players check. The river is the K[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]. Torres checks and Lefkowitz bets an unknown amount. Torres shows the Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG] and mucks his cards. Lefkowitz flips up K[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG] for the flopped straight flush, and Torres says "I smelled a straight flush!" Lefkowitz has $6,700 after the hand. Tue Jul 11 16:11:00 PDT 2006 John Bonetti Doubles Up Facing an all in bet on a flop of 8[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]7[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]4[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG], John Bonetti makes a very tough call for all of his chips with 3[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]3[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]. His opponent shows A[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]. The turn and the river are the 10[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG] and the 5[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]. Since both players had almost identical stacks, John Bonetti doubles up to $9,300. Tue Jul 11 16:15:00 PDT 2006 Gavin Smith Eliminated Gavin Smith has been eliminated from today's action. Tue Jul 11 16:19:00 PDT 2006 Set Over Set for Kirill Gerasimov Kirill Gerasimov collects a $7,100 pot after doubling up with Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG] against his opponent's 5[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]5[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG] on a board of Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]10[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]6[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]5[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]9[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG].

Tue Jul 11 16:52:00 PDT 2006 Ted Leva Triples Up Ted Leva moves all in for his last $675 under the gun, and Nam Le calls right behind him. Matt Hilger re-raises the pot $1,500 more. Le thinks for a minute then folds. Hilger has Leva dominated as he shows K[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG] to Leva's Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]8[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]. The flop gives Leva hope as it comes A[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]7[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]. The turn is the 3[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG], and Hilger is drawing dead. The 10[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG] comes on the river and Leva triples up to $2,025. Tue Jul 11 16:57:00 PDT 2006 Boatman Eliminated Barny Boatman ($4,800) raises $700 from under the gun. A player in middle position calls. Jose Torres ($8,000) reraises to $1,900 from the button. Boatman reraises all in for $2,250 more. The player in middle position folds and Torres calls. Boatman turns over A[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]K[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]. It's a race as Torres has J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]. The flop comes 10[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]7[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]6[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]. The turn is the 5[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG] and Boatman will need an Ace or King to survive. It doesn't come as the 5[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG] falls on the river. Boatman has $14,700 after winning the pot of more than $10,000.

He is far ahead of Leva's A[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]K[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]. Leva will need to catch one of the remaining three Aces, or running spades or straight cards, to avoid elimination. The turn is the J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG], leaving Leva with seven outs (three Aces and four Queens). The river is a 9, however, and Leva is eliminated.

Ustinov quickly calls. The turn comes 3[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG] and Ustinov again checks. Alaei shoots out with a bet of $2,000 and Ustinov thinks for a minute before calling. Unstinov checks again when the river brings the 7[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]. This time Alaei checks as well. Ustinov shows Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]8[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG] for two-pair and Alaei mucks.

Nguyen will need a King, a Queen, or running hearts to win the hand. The turn is the 7[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG], which means that they will chop with any 6 on the river. The river is the 3[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG], however, and Seidel doubles up to $6,850. Nguyen drops to $3,000 in chips.
