Event 36 - The Final Four! 1 year ago

We're down to the final four in this $1,500 No Limit Hold'em final table with the last hour seeing two more hopefuls fall in their quest for donkament glory and oodles of cash. Here's how it all went down in the Amazon Room at the Rio:

Wald Out (6th)

Cody Slaubaugh raises to $77,000 and Doug Middleton ships it all-in for his last $150,000. Justin Wald moves all-in over the top and Slaubaugh folds out after some tankage, leaving Middleton to show Ac 6c and Wald Kh Qh. The board comes Ad Th 7s 9c 5s and Middleton doubles through Wald while Slaubaugh is not particularly happy with the latter's re-shove.

A few hands later, Wald, Danny Wong and Jesper Hougaard see a flop come Js Jd 4d. Wald bets out $50,000 and both opponents make the call. The turn is the Kd and the action checks around, but on the 5c river Wald moves all-in. Hougaard folds but Wong makes the call and tables a pair of diamonds to Hougaard's Q-J. Wong has the flush and it's good to bust Wald, who leaves in sixth place and collects $140,286 for his time.

Middleton Muddied (5th)

Jesper Hougaard raises to $78,000 and Doug Middleton moves all-in for $410,000 from the small blind. Hougaard makes the call, showing a pocket pair of treys to Middleton's Ah Qs. The board comes Jh Jc 2d 5d Td and the treys hold, giving Hougaard the pot and sending Middleton to the rail in fifth place. The boy will take home $177,028 for his time.

Event 36 - As We Proceed! 1 year ago

We're down to the final six in this $1,500 No Limit Hold'em tournament with two more eliminations headlining the last hour of play. Here's how the last sixty minutes of play has looked beneath the mood lighting of the ESPN soundstage:

Crowe Eaten (8th)

The tastefully-named Owen Crowe and Danny Wong see a flop come Ac 9c 8s and Wong check-calls Crowe's $70,000 wager. The turn is the As and Wong check-raises Crowe all-in after the Nova Scotian fires out $225,000. Crowe makes the call and turns up Ad 7s for trips while Wong has Kc 6c for the club flush. The river is the 5c and Wong hits his flush, busting Crowe in 8th place for an $81,833 final score.

Solis Quantum'd (7th)

Jesper Hougaard and Rick Solis see a flop come Qc Tc 9c and both players check. The turn is the 9s and Hougaard bets out $76,000 and Solis moves all-in over the top. Hougaard beats him to the pot and shows Ac 3c for the flush while Solis is behind with Jd Ts for two pair. The river is the Js and Solis is eliminated in seventh place. He takes $106,884 for his time.
