Event 16 - The Final 10 1 year ago

We are down to a final table of ten now that Ralph Rudd has gone out. Rudd opened from the cutoff for $20k then called when Andrew Brown put him in for his last $1k.

Brown had the Ah 7d 5d 4s versus Rudd's Ad Ac 8s Ks, but when the Kd 8d 10d 6s 3h board finished Brown had a flush and eight low for the scoop.

Event 16 - The Squeaky Wheel Gets The Grease 1 year ago

Thsi last level has sen a flurry of exits as we are down to just eleven hopefulls in the hunt for WSOP Gold and a wad of greenbacks. They started with 18 but at this rate we'll crowna champ before long.

Seeya Sohayegh (16th)

Michael Sohayegh lost the last of his chips in a four way limped pot. After the 10s 4d 3d flop Andrew Brown bet, Jim Pechac and Sohayegh made his final call.

The action is checked down the rest of the way as the Kh turn and 5c river fall.

In the end, Pechac's Ah Qd Jh 2s is good for the wheel and Sohayegh is sent to the cage to collect $8,554.

Richburg Poor (15th)

Ted Forrest made quick work of James Richburg making a wheel to scoop up all his chips.


The wheels of the bus go...

Richburg goes home with $11,071 for 15th and at least he can say he got beat by the nuts.

Aronesty Nested (14th)

Joe Aronesty shoved facing a Qs 7s 6c flop and got the call from Jimmy "Gobboboy" Fricke.

Aronesty's Ac 2c 2d 3h gave him a few possibilities against Fricke's Ad 8s 8h 6d but none of them came to fruition. He leaves with $11,071 for 14th.

Paz Dispensed (13th)

Joe Paz became or 13th place finisher when he raised a Ted Forrest limp. Forrest called and the Kh 9s 6c flop fell. Ted then check-called a Paz shove for only $1,000 chips. Forrest had a pair, Paz had none and Ted made yet another straight to rail him.

Paz will take home $11,071 for his efforts.

Smith Smacked (12th)

Mallory Smith will cash $13,587 for 12th after shoving behind a Ralph Rudd limp.

Andrew Brown, Kia Hooshmand called before Rudd came over the top. Both players with action made the call and we were treated to the Qh 10h 8h flop.

All three checked before the 7d turn came and Brown bet, Hooshmand let it go but Rudd made the call. The river was the 7s and it got checked down. Smith made trip sevens but Brown had a straight. Rudd mucked and Smith left in a hurry.
