Level 17:  3,000/6,000 with a 6,000 ante
Flight A Players Remaining:  52 of 511

Sal Troiano

A player raised to 14,000 under the gun, UTG+1 moved all in for a short stack, and then Sal Troiano (late position) and the big blind both got all in as well. UTG got out of the way so the remaining three players revealed their cards.

Troiano: AsAc
Big Blind: KdKc
UTG+1: QcJd

Board: 8c6d5s2s7c

UTG+1 was eliminated on the money bubble, and Troiano stacked up the chip lead with 899,000 after collecting the pot.

Joining Troiano at the top of the chip counts are Fred Paradis (842,000), Christos Tsironis (451,000), and Samuel Laskowitz (437,000).

Level 3:  100/200 with a 200 ante

Bruce Malyon

Four players paid the 400 price of admission to see a flop dealt Qs10s4c, and then Marvin “Duckman” Karlins moved all in for 5,500 from the button.

The small blind folded, the big blind called, and  Bruce Malyon called on the hijack as well. The two remaining live players then checked the 7d on the turn, and the 9h on the river.

Karlins showed QhJh, but that was not enough to top the KsJd held by Malyon for a straight. The big blind mucked his cards so Malyon stacked up 39,500 after collecting the pot.

Bruce Malyon – 39,500 (131 bb)
