Hyunsup Kim Eliminated in 9th Place ($51,000)

Level 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Hyunsup Kim
Hyunsup Kim

In a hand that saw Hyunsup Kim put in the rest of his few remaining chips, Maria Ho made the call top put Kim at risk in an attempt to get the table down to eight.

Hyunsup Kim: K?10?
Maria Ho: K?5?

Much to the disappointment of Kim, the flop came 5?4?5?, flopping him dead to running tens for the win or running kings for a chop, but when the turn brought the 7?, Kim was drawing dead headed to the meaningless 9? river as Ho extends her chip lead and sends Kim to the exit in ninth place for $51,000.

Accused Private Poker Game Cheater: "I Didn't Bring Any Cards Anywhere"

Level 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

One day after being accused of cheating a California home game out of millions, Tony Mars issued a statement to PokerNews denying the allegations.

Wesley Fei and Nikhil "Nik Airball" Arcot, both Hustler Casino Live regulars, claim that Mars, who also plays on HCL, brought a special UV-marked deck that allowed him to decipher face-down cards.

The alleged scandal occurred in a game at a private residence in Yorba Linda, California, a community in Orange County.

Konstantin Maslak raised to 1,600,000 in the cutoff and Rafael Robles deliberated for a while before he called on the button with only 200,000 behind. Konstantinos Nanos jammed for about 9,600,000 in the small blind, Maslak called, and Robles put in his remaining chips.

Rafael Robles: J?10?
Konstantinos Nanos: A?Q?
Konstantin Maslak: A?K?

The board ran out A?J?5?7?2? and Maslak scooped to eliminate Robles in 11th place for $41,000 and Nanos in 10th place for $41,000.
