There were four limpers in the pot. The flop was {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades}. Tony Bloom fired out 18,000 from the small blind. Only Erick Lidngren called. The turn was the {8-Spades} and both players checked.The river was the {10-Spades}. Bloom bet 40,000. Erick Lindgren went into the tank. He almost used up all of his time bank. The dealer had counted off, "5-4-3-2...." And just when the dealer said "1" Lindgren had moved all in for his last 115,000. Bloom also went into the tank. The dealer counted off, "5-4-3-2..." And at the last possible second, Bloom called.

Lindgren tabled {10-Clubs}{7-Hearts} for a full house. Bloom mucked. Lindgren doubled up and increased his stack to over 300,000.

Action Jeff - 2nd in chips
Action Jeff - 2nd in chips
With the addition of ActionJeff, Timex, and Durrr into the $100,000 event, it was interesting to see how they would hold up against the established Las Vegas pros like Phil Ivey, Allen Cunningham, Erick Lindgren, Erik Seidel and Gus Hansen (Las Vegas via Denmark).

So far, Timex was the only one of the online trio who has been eliminated, while Seidel, Hansen, and Cunningham are all out. Meanwhile, the two young guns are at the top of the chiplead. Durrr is leading the pack with 388,000 with ActionJeff not too far behind in second place.

The flop was {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. Kagawa checked, Jedlicka checked, Garza bet 23,000, Kagawa called and Jedlicka folded. The turn was the {8-Diamonds}.

Kagawa {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Garza {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}

The river was the {9-Diamonds}, eliminating Kagawa. After the hand, Garza's stack was up to 381,000.
