Russian mixed game star Vladimir Schemelev has just been knocked out on the bubble by the hand of Steve Landfish.
Landfish and Phil Hellmuth were kind enough to help us reconstruct the hand in which Schemelev started with split aces. Schemelev didn't improve his hand, after being all in on third street, but Landfish did.
Landfish started with 
and two clubs, which ultimately turned into a club flush. Schemelev was knocked out and the remaining 16 players are now in the money.
Oxana Cummings: 
/ 
/
James Obst: / 
/
Ben Yu: / 
/
Yu was the bring-in, and action folded around to Cummings. She completed all in for 3,500, and then Obst raised to 8,500. Yu called.
On fourth street, Yu led with a bet, and Obst called. Then on fifth street, Obst did the betting with Yu calling. Both Obst and Yu then checked seventh street.
Obst couldn't beat Yu's 
for two pair and mucked his hand, giving Yu the side pot. Cummings showed the 
for a better two pair and she scooped the main pot to triple up.
Richard Ashby: / 
— fold
Matt Grapenthien: / 
After Ashby completed the bet on third street, Grapenthien raised from the next seat. Action folded back to Ashby, and he called to see fourth street. Grapenthien bet double after he paired up with nines showing, and then Ashby tank-folded.
A couple hands later, the following hand happened to give Ashby the double up he was looking for:
Ashby: 
/ 
/ 
Grapenthien: 
/ 
/ 
After Ashby completed the bet, Grapenthien raised behind him once again — and once again showing a lower card than Ashby was. Action folded back to Ashby, and he called. On fifth street, Ashby checked, Grapenthien bet, Ashby raised, Grapenthien reraised, and Ashby called all in.
Grapenthien was ahead with a pair of kings to Ashby's pair of queens. Ashby's board then ran out such that he made queens and fives. Grapenthien stayed with just a pair of kings after hi run out, and Ashby doubled up.
Vladimir Schemelev had the bring in and Barry Greenstein raised from his left. Steve Landfish called and on Schemelev called as well. On fourth street Greenstein checked, Landfish bet and Schemelev called. Greenstein folded and on fifth Landfish won the pot when he bet again.
Landfish: 
/
Schemelev: / 
— fold
Greenstein: / 
— fold
Landfish showed that he had three of a kind and added that he wouldn't dare to bluff.
On the next hand Schemelev completed and Greenstein raised. Schemelev called and on check-called a bet on fourth. On fifth street Greenstein bet again and Schemelev folded.
Schemelev: / 
— fold
Greenstein: /
On fifth street, Richard Ashby bet and Nikolay Losev called. On sixth and seventh, both players checked.
Losev: / 
/
Ashby: 
/
"No pair," Ashby said.
Losev showed 
and for a second Ashby thought the Russian had just ace-ten high. Ashby showed ace-queen high but his opponent had a pair.
Gary Benson: / 
/
Matt Grapenthien: / 
/
Todd Brunson: / 
/
Benson led with a bet on fourth street, and then Matt Grapenthien called before Todd Brunson raised. Benson called all in for 7,000 total, and Grapenthien also called the raise.
On fifth and sixth streets, Grapenthien check-called bets from Brunson before everyone received seventh street face down. Grapenthien checked, and Brunson checked behind.
Brunson showed the 
for a pair of sixes. Grapenthien mucked to give Brunson the side pot, and then Benson showed the before sweating his last card. Benson needed an ace, king, queen, jack, ten, or six to stay alive, but he pulled the and made the only pair he couldn't win with.
With that, Brunson moved to nearly 600,000 in chips while the rest of the tournament fell to the bubble.
