Micon reveals the A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3], and goes to the flop in the lead. The flop comes down 7[/SIZE][SIZE=3]2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]2[/SIZE][SIZE=3], no help to Olson. The turn brings the J[/SIZE][SIZE=3], leaving Olson needing to catch a Q to eliminate Micon. Micon dodges that Q, however, and with the A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]on the river, doubles through Olson, ending with approximately $200,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:11:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Scott Wins Small One From Chip Leader[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Justin Scott ($592,000) raises $33,000 from mid position. Nathan Templeton ($780,000) calls. Scott laughs as the chip leader calls him and says, "This could get interesting." The flop comes A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Templeton checks and before Scott could put in his $50,000 bet Templeton folds. A player says, "That wasn't that interesting." Scott builds his stack to $640,000 while Templeton falls to $740,000.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:12:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Spano Wins Pot Off Olson[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Paul Spano limps from under-the-gun and Kendall Fukumoto calls from the small blind. Carl Olson checks and the flop comes Q [/SIZE][SIZE=3]6[/SIZE][SIZE=3]5[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and Spano bets $30,000. Fukumoto folds and Olson calls. The turn is the J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and both players check. The river is the K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and they both check again. Spano shows A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3], Olson mucks, and Spano wins the pot. Spano is at $390,000 and Olson has dropped to $170,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:19:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Templeton Stays Aggressive[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Nathan Templeton ($740,000) once again opens the pot for a $40,000 raise. Greg Glass ($262,000) calls from the button. The flop comes A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Both players check. The 2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]falls on the turn and Templeton bets $60,000. Glass folds and falls to $210,000 while Templeton has $792,000.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:27:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Rouhani Doubles Up [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Farzad Rouhani ($65,0000) limps into the big blind. Nathan Templeton ($792,000) from the big blind checks. The flop comes K [/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]3[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Rouhani goes all in for his last $49,000. Templeton thinks for awhile and calls. Rouhani has 10[/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and Templeton has 7[/SIZE][SIZE=3]3[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. The turn is the 10[/SIZE][SIZE=3], and now Rouhani only has to fear a three. But the A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]falls on the river and Rouhani doubles up to $142,000. Templeton takes a mini blow and is at $725,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:34:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]"No Limping."[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Farzah Rouhani ($136,000) limps in from middle position. Jake Stearley ($220,000) limps in from the small blind. Greg Glass ($210,000) says he wants to put Rouhani all in. Rouhani has $120,000 left after calling the big blind. Both Rouhani and Stearley folds. Glass says, "No limping." [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:37:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Johnson Doubles Up[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Jason Johnson is all in for $68,000 total, and is called by Justin Scott, who shows the A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]7[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Johnson shows his pocket jacks, and is looking to avoid an ace or diamonds on the flop. He has little to worry about after a flop of J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]8[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Scott is now drawing dead, and the running fives make no difference. Johnson doubles to approximately $140,000, leaving Scott with approximately $580,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:43:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Micon is Saved by the River[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Chad Mizner limps and Bryan Micon goes all-in for $101,000 total. Mizner makes the call and shows 5 [/SIZE][SIZE=3]5[/SIZE][SIZE=3]while Micon has A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]10[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. The board comes 7[/SIZE][SIZE=3]6[/SIZE][SIZE=3]5[/SIZE][SIZE=3]3[/SIZE][SIZE=3]4[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and Micon is saved by the river as it puts a straight on the board. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:49:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Wakeman Wins Two Uncontested[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Josh Wakeman steals the blinds two hands in a row. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:52:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]"Mind if I join?"[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Nathan Templeton ($725,000) raises $35,000 before the flop. Justin Scott ($640,000) asks Templeton, "Mind if I join?" Templeton nods his head in approval. The flop comes A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]3[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Templeton bets $50,000 and Scott folds.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:53:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Blinds Increase[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Blinds have increased for level 19. There will now be blinds of $8,000-$16,000 with an ante of $2,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:56:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Lavigne Caught Stealing[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Debbie Lavigne moves all-in from early position for $180,000. Bryan Micon goes all-in for $120,000 and has A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Lavigne shows A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]6[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. The board comes 10[/SIZE][SIZE=3]10[/SIZE][SIZE=3]3[/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]3[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and Micon doubles to $240,000 while Lavigne drops to $60,000.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 01:59:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Rouhani Doubles Up[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Joseph Cordi ($149,000) raises $50,000 from middle position. Farzad Rouhani ($69,000) calls leaving him just $3,000. Cordi tells Rouhani he knows he's behind but bets the $3,000 before the flop. The flop comes K [/SIZE][SIZE=3]6[/SIZE][SIZE=3]2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Rouhani calls and has A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Cordi is right, he's way behind as he flips over A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]4[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. The 2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]on the turn and Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]on the river double up Rouhani. Cordi has $50,000. Rouhani is up to $210,000.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 02:04:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Debbie Lavigne Eliminated 15th ($37,310)[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Carl Olson moves all-in from late position for $122,000. Debbie Lavigne calls the all-in for the rest of her $40,000 in the small blind. She shows A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and Olson has 9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. The board comes J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]7[/SIZE][SIZE=3]3[/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and Lavigne is eliminated in 15th. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 02:10:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Joseph Cordi Eliminated 14th ($41,041)[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Justin Scott (800,000) raises $50,000 preflop. Joseph Cordi ($140,000) reraises all in. Scott calls immediately. Scott shows K [/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Cordi turns over Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and asks, "What am I supposed to do?" The board of 6[/SIZE][SIZE=3]5[/SIZE][SIZE=3]2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]provides no help for Cordi and he is eliminated. Scott wins the $340,000 pot and has $964,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 02:18:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Jake Stearley Eliminated 13th ($44,772)[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Jake Stearley ($71,000) raises all in from middle position. Chip leader Justin Scott ($940,000) calls. Scott is ahead with A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]8[/SIZE][SIZE=3]to Stearley's J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]10[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. The flop is friendly for Stearley as he hits top two-pair (J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]10[/SIZE][SIZE=3]3[/SIZE][SIZE=3]). But the turn is a scare card (9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]) as it gives Scott and open ended straight draw. He hits his straight on the river as the Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]falls. Stearley is eliminated while Scott has gone over the million chip mark with $1,040,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 02:20:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Bright Takes Down a Solid Pot[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Chad Mizner raises to $40,000 from the button and Bob Bright makes the call from the big blind. The flop comes A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Bright checks and Mizner bets $50,000. Bright thinks for awhile and then moves all-in. Mizner immediately folds. Bright is now at $315,000 while Mizner now has $150,000 in chips. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 02:25:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Chad Mizner Eliminated in 12th ($48,503)[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Chad Mizner moves all-in from the cutoff for $122,000. Action is on Carl Olson, who thinks for a few minutes before he announces a call, revealing his A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Mizner shows his 4[/SIZE][SIZE=3]4[/SIZE][SIZE=3], and is looking to dodge an ace or a nine on the flop. Olson catches, however, as the flop brings the A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Mizner now needs one of the two remaining fours, or running straight cards. The J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]on the turn leaves him looking for two outs. The K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]does not help Mizner , and he is eliminated in 12th place. Olson ends the hand with approximately $360,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 02:27:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Johnson Catches Miracle Flop[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Jason Johnson ($88,000) goes all in preflop. Kendall Fukumoto ($246,000) thinks for awhile before calling. It's a race as Johnson has A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and Fukumoto has 7[/SIZE][SIZE=3]7[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Johnson flops Broadway as the Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]10[/SIZE][SIZE=3]come out. Johnson shouts, "Yes!! Yes!!!" Fukumoto asks for running sevens. He misses his call by one as the turn and river come 8[/SIZE][SIZE=3]8[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Johnson doubles up to $195,000 while Fukumoto now has $158,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 02:43:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Kendall Fukumoto Eliminated 11th ($52,234)[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Nathan Templeton ($620,000) raises $45,000 before the flop. Kendall Fukumoto ($160,000) reraises all in. Templeton calls and shows K [/SIZE][SIZE=3]10[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. It's a race as Fukumoto has 9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Fukumoto who just lost a race is hoping for a better flop than the last time, when his opponent hit Broadway. The flop is painful for Fukumoto again as it comes 6[/SIZE][SIZE=3]5[/SIZE][SIZE=3]5[/SIZE][SIZE=3]giving Templeton a flush draw. The turn is the 8[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and Fukumoto has to avoid a King, ten or club. He doesn't as the 7[/SIZE][SIZE=3]hits. Fukumoto is eliminated while Templeton climbs to $820,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 02:44:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Final 10[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]The remaining ten players have converged on one table. Once one more player is eliminated, play will end for the day. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 02:50:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Bright Takes Pot Off Templeton Preflop[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Nathan Templeton raises to $50,000 in late position. Bob Bright comes over the top for $80,000 more from the button. Action gets back to Templeton who folds, giving Bright the pot. Bright is now at $380,000 and Templeton has $730,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 02:55:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Play Tightens[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]In fear of busting out on the final table bubble, players have tightened up considerably. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 03:02:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Big Stacks Collilde[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Nathan Templeton ($835,000) raises $65,000 before the flop. Justin Scott ($1,000,000) calls from the big blind. The flop comes 8 [/SIZE][SIZE=3]3[/SIZE][SIZE=3]2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Scott checks and Templeton bets $75,000. Scott takes a large stack of $5,000 chips and puts them into the middle ($200,000). Templeton asks how much, then calls. The turn is the J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and Scott goes all in. Templeton thinks for a long time before folding. Scott shows him the 8[/SIZE][SIZE=3]8[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Templeton says he made a tough laydown, saying he folded pocket Aces with the A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Templeton has $470,000 and Scott has a commanding $1,400,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 03:02:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Players On Break[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Players are on a quick break.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 03:15:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Players Return, Blinds Increase[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Play has resumed, with increased stakes for level 20. Blinds are now $10,000-$20,00, with a $3,000 ante. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 23 03:30:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Paul Spano Eliminated 10th ($55,965)[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Paul Spano ($360,000) raises $40,000 in early position. Nathan Templeton ($440,000) reraises all in. Spano thinks long and hard and finally says, "OK," and pushes his chips in. Spano is in trouble as he has A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and Templeton has K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. The flop though is golden for Spano as it comes A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. The turn is the 10[/SIZE][SIZE=3]giving a split pot opportunity for Templeton. Templeton needs either the case King to win the pot or a Queen (not of diamonds) to split the pot. The river...KING! the K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]hits and the table explodes in cheers because they have made the final table. Spano stands in stunned disbelief, before shaking Templeton's hand.
