Level 23 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

George Grabe called a raise to 300,000 by the chip leader Shane Brown and checked the A♣8♣2♦ flop. Brown bet 400,000 and Grabe flung his cards with a lot of force and frustration into the muck.

After the hand, David Lu folded and pulled his bounty. He then walked back to the seat and celebrated with a loud "let's goooooo".

"How much did you get, six eighty?" Erick Ortiz asked and Lu replied "nine forty-five."

Calum Grant

Level 23 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Namit Patel has already won tournaments at Borgata on both Wednesday and Thursday, and he's well placed to make it a hat-trick after adding more chips to his stack in the $580 Mirror Mystery Bounty.

He raised and Robert Bernstein called from the big blind. Bernstein check-called for 145,000 on the Q♥9♦2♥ flop before the 9♠ turn checked through to the Q♠ river.

Bernstein led out for 300,000, and showed signs of dismay when Patel called.

Bernstein's 4♥4♦ had been counterfeited, and sent his hand into the muck after Patel tabled K♦10♥
