Obrestad Left Short

Annette Obrestad was left with just 55,000 after a battle of the blinds.

The board read      , and her opponent's hand was face-up   . Obrestad and her opponent were both all in, and she lost the hand to double-him up, which left her short and is now in need of a double herself.

Java Sends One Out

The player in middle position moved all in for 14,000. Nipun Java, on the cutoff, three-bet to 24,000. The button and the blinds folded.

Nipun Java:   
Opponent:   

''Oh it's great! Cool!'' commented Java's opponent.

But the board ran       and Java's rivered flush took over to send his opponent out in a not so cool way.

Patterson Cracks Aces on the River

Tyler Patterson

Tyler Patterson has just scored an elimination after a cruel river card.

Patterson, in the cutoff, was up against the player on the button and all the chips were in the middle with the board down      .

Patterson had pocket kings in front of him, and his opponent had pocket aces. The player on the button was all set for a double-up until Patterson spiked a king to send his opponent to the rail.

WSOP bracelet winner Patterson now has a very healthy 560,000 stack.
