Blinds – 60000/12000 Paul put his last 230,000 in the pot with Ace/Deuce and got called by Javier Romero’s Ace/Nine. A nine came on the Flop. An Ace on the turn sealed Paul’s fate.
Blinds – 40000/80000 Paul lasted as long as he could. He was pretty much card dead on this Final Table. His final hand, Paul held Queen/Jack to Josh Heafey’s pocket sevens. No Queen or Jack on the board so Paul takes home $450.
Blinds – 40000/80000 On the very next hand, the shortest shortest stack Gary Lifton goes all -in with 3♦ 5♦ only to get called by Paul Prusik’s Ace/Seven. No diamond or pair for Gary, but Gary does pick up $400 and a “Wild Card” seat!
Blinds – 40000/8000 Melo being short stacked with 90,000 shoves only to get called by Josh Heafey. Melo flops two pair (Queens/Jacks) however a ten comes on the turn for Heafey to give him a straight who held Ace/Jack. All players from here on out are in the Season 31 Finals.
Blinds – 40000/80000 Nine players still remain. Everyone is playing tight because they know the next person out misses out on a “Wild Card” seat in the Season 31 Finals
Blinds – 30000/60000 Al is our first victim at this Final Table falling to Sam Ferandez when Sam has (what else) pocket fives vs Al’s Queen/King. A five falls on the flop and takes Al out in 10th place for $200
Blinds – 30000/60000 Lifton sucks out on the river against Melo top set on the flop
