$5k NLHE Six-Max - Purple Reign
5 months ago
We moved to the final two six-handed tables after Aurelien Guiglini shipped it with queens and couldn't fade the single overcard contained in Faraz Jaka's ace-queen.
But it wasn't long before we lost John Conkright as well.
He ran ace-jack into ace-king and missed.
The Rory Mathews fall from grace was complete a few hands later when he shipped it with K
9
and Jonas Wexler found two kings.
Then before long, Alex Venovski pushed A
Q
into Faraz Jaka's aces and while he left in 10th place, Jaka now finds himself in the chip lead with nine players remaining.

$5k NLHE Six-Max - Excuse Me While I Kiss the Sky
5 months ago
The final day of this $5k six-handed event is underway.
We started with 16, but there have been a few cuts already.
Frank Calo was the first to go after getting queens cracked by a set of nines to end up short.
Then Eugene Katchalov got it all in with his ace-queen dominating James St. Hilaire's ace-ten.
Unfortunately for Eugene, the board brought a ten.
Finally, Peter Feldman said goodbye when his set wasn't as good as Thorsten Schaefer's.
Now, with 13 players remaining, St. Hilaire has the lead with over 2 million in chips thanks to Rory Matthews, who ran a massive pre-flop bluff into his pocket kings to blow the chip lead.
