1st Place: Aristoteles Neto ($21,044)

On a [Ad][Th][7h] flop, Aristoteles Neto check raised all in and Jeffrey Gurfinkel made the call saying, "I don't have an ace so I have to get there." Jeffrey was on a draw with his [9h][8c], and Aristoteles did have an ace with [As][5c]. Jeffrey added to his straight draw when the turn fell [5h], giving him a flush draw as well. But the [Kc] river bricked out, leaving Aristoteles pair in front.

The stacks were counteed down, and Aristoteles had Jeffrey outchipped by 100,000, so he will win Event #9 $580 NLH. Aristoteles will take home $21,044 along with the title and a World Series of Poker Circuit ring.

He will earn 50 points on the Venue Leaderboard for his win, adding to his existing 40 points, to put him in the lead for Casino Champion. With only three events to go, Aristoteles has a good chance to earn his seat at the WSOP National Championship.

Congratulations, Aristoteles.

2nd Place: Jeffrey Gurfinkel ($13,010)

Jeffrey Guffinkel doubles through Aristoteles Neto

Aristoteles Neto had chipped Jeffrey Guffinkel down to 480,000, and Jeffrey got the last of his chips in with [Ah][Qd] against Aristoteles's [Kc][Td]. Aristoteles begged for a king on the flop, but instead it fell [Qc][6h][Qs]. The [4d] turn meant Jeffrey would double up, and the meaningless [Ks] river added insult to injury. The two are back to even once again.

Aristoteles Neto doubles through Jeffrey Guffinkel

Aristoteles Neto was all in preflop holding [Ad][7d] and was up against the [Ah][5h] of Jeffrey Guffinkel. The [Qh][9c][Jd] flop made a chop the most likely outcome, and the [4s] turn changed nothing. But the [7h] hit the river, giving Aristoteles the winning pair of sevens and doubling him up. The two are now nearly even in chips as we bgin Level 26.

3rd Place: Kwangsoo Lim ($9,387)

On a [Qc][2c][8d][3h] board, Aristoteles Neto moved all in and Kwangsoo Lim snap called. Kwangsoo had turned two pair with his [8c][3c], but unfortunately for him, Aristoteles turned two bigger pair with his [Qd][8h]. The river fell the [4d], and the the stacks were counted down. Kwangsoo had slightly more chips, so after paying off the allin, he was down to less than a big blind.

He tripled up the next hand, but then lost the last of his chips when his [Qc][8s] lost to Aristoteles [Js][6s] on a [4h][5d][Jh][Tc][8c] board. Kwangsooo will be eliminated from Event #9 in 3rd place, good for $9,387.
