Hands:
Jason Mercier Eliminated
With 21 big blinds, Jason Mercier opened under the gun with the K J. Another player calls with the 9 8. The flop comes 8 7 2X, and Mercier’s opponent checks. Mercier shoves and his opponent calls. The 2 gave Mercier a flush and he was in good shape to double. However, the river was a 2, giving his opponent a full house. Mercier was gone early on day 3.
Sorel Mizzi Doubles
Poker pro Sorel Mizzi just got his stack of about 100,000 in preflop with pocket aces against another player’s A-K. The aces held and Mizzi was at 225,000 after the hand.
Rob Perelman Doubles
One player limped in and Rob Perelman shoved his short stack in the middle with A-2. A player in the big blind called with pocket queens and the limper folded. Fortunately for Perelman the flop brought an ace and he doubled to 55,000.
Darryll Fish Doubles
Darryll Fish got all of his chips into the middle with A-Q and unfortunately ran into A-K. However the board ran out K-10-3-4-J, giving him broad way on the end and the double to 175,000.
Phil Hellmuth Over 100,000
Phil Hellmuth called a 4,000-chip bet with the K 10 in the small blind. The flop was sexy for Hellmuth as it fell 5 3 2, and he check-called a bet of 7,000. The 6 fell on the turn and action went check-check. Hellmuth hit his flush on the river when the 5 fell. He bet 16,000 and his opponent called. Hellmuth was at 110,000 after the hand.
Greg Mueller Eliminated
Greg Mueller got his stack of about 70,000 in with pocket aces on a K-8-5-10 board vs. Q-J. The river was a nine and Mueller was gone.
