When Mizrachi bet on 6th street, Nguyen took some time to think over the hand, eventually folding and giving the pot to Mizrachi. Their hands: Mizrachi: (X-X)-7 The Grinder lost a previous hand to the Master, but this hand put his chip stack back around 450,000. Buchman Busts In 12th Place ($32,909) A short-stacked Eric Buchman completed on third street and was called by the chip leader, Vladimir Schmelev. Buchman led out on 4th street and bet again, getting called. Schmelev connected for a pair of eights on 5th street and put Buchman all in. Buchman called and didn’t improve his buried pair of 4s, busting in 12th place. Schmelev: (4 Shortly after, Schmelev was the first to surpass one million in chips. Looks like he’s ready for another final table at the 2010 WSOP.
Brandon Adams entered the day short on chips, but has since chipped up and in the process knocked out Ray Dehkharghani. Ray called a raise from Adams on 3rd street, then called Adams’ bet on 4th street. Ray bet out on 5th and 6th street and was called. On the end, Ray slowed down and checked. He didn’t look too happy when he called Adams’ final bet. Their hands were: Dehkharghani: (X-X)-4 Adams’ trip Jacks took a nice pot and was no longer among the short stacks, holding 400,000 in chips. Shortly after Dehkharghani got all in, again against Adams, and Adams hit a flush to send Dehkharghani out in 11th place. Barlow Falls in 10th Place ($38,676) Todd Barlow got all in in a three-way pot and couldn’t improve upon his pair of nines, falling to Joe Cassidy’s two pair. The hands were: Barlow: (9-9)-J-2-10-8-(3) With Barlow’s elimination, the final 10 are set.
