Claudangelo Beaudouin

Claudangelo Beaudouin was all in preflop on the button, leaving three players able to generate a side pot with further action.

Georges Boyadjian checked from the big blind and Steve Allen bet from under the gun. Gabriel Ramos folded and Boyadjian called.

Both players checked the Kc turn and the 9c came on the river. Boyadjian checked and Allen bet. Boyadjian folded.

Allen tabled AcJc7h3h and won the pot with the nut flush. Beaudouin quickly tabled his hand, but it was mucked just as fast since it was an impossible hand to beat.

Steve Allen – 270,000
Claudangelo Beaudouin – Eliminated

Level 19: 15,000/30,000 Limits
Players Remaining: 9 of 92

Nancy Birnbaum is under the gun and heads-up against Heriberto Ferreyra. After betting on previous streets, Birnbaum commits her last chip on the river with a completed board of Kh4s2sJc6s.

Ferreyra tables QhJs8h5s, giving him a flush and an eight-low, but Birnbaum takes the whole pot with AsQdTs7s, giving her the nut flush and a seven-low.

Nancy Birnbaum – 100,000

Robert Campbell

A short-stacked Robert Campbell got the last of his chips into the middle on the river with a king-high straight, but lost to Steve Allen’s flush.

“I had hearts and diamonds,” said Allen about both of his flush draws as Campbell was gathering his belongings.

“Yeah, I guess I needed a blank,” said Campbell after thinking his diamond flush draw was live.

Campbell is eliminated in 10th place for $680 and Allen is one of only a few players with close to 10 big bets.

Steve Allen – 190,000
Robert Campbell – Eliminated

Down Time at the L Bar

When players aren’t busy grinding away in the new Event Center or poker room, there are plenty of options on site for some relaxation and entertainment away from the tables. Among them, L Bar recently unveiled a menu with nine new offerings including three Culinary Influenced libations that showcase familiar food combinations in a creative drinkable format.

L Bar’s new menu isn’t just about a rotation of drinks; everything from the categories to flavor profiles have been revamped. Designed to guide guests in the right direction, the menu has been divided into different sections, each with its own personality.

Culinary Influenced cocktails include the Bacon & Eggs featuring bacon-infused Buffalo Trace Bourbon, egg white, fresh lemon, honey and black pepper. For those looking for a pick-me-up, the Coffee & A Doughnut transforms the beloved on-the-go breakfast into an inspired drink. It features Herradura Reposado Double Barrel tequila, cold brew coffee, egg white and cinnamon, topped with a chocolate doughnut. Lastly, the Avocado Toast takes the ubiquitous menu item to a new level. A perfect mix of Don Julio Blanco tequila, Cointreau, fresh lemon and lime, sage, avocado and agave, this cocktail offers a sweet and savory rendition of this menu favorite.

Classics feature drinks that stand the test of time – no matter their history, these drinks continue to inspire both mixologists and guests. New Classics at L Bar include the Dark n’ Stormy – a Bermuda classic, made with Mount Gay Black Barrel Rum instead of the traditional Gosling’s Rum; the Bee’s Knees featuring Hayman’s Old Tom gin, honey, lemon juice and orange juice; the Pisco Sour – Pisco, fresh lime, egg white, bitters and orange oil essence; and the Kentucky Buck. Bucks are a family of drinks consisting of ginger beer, a spirit and a citrus element. Named after the state that birthed bourbon, L Bar’s Kentucky Buck is made with Bulleit Bourbon, lemon juice, strawberry bitters and ginger beer. With a history dating back to the 1920s, the Pegu Club (Tanqueray 10, fresh lime, Cointreau and bitters) originated in Myanmar, Burma when the British set up outposts across Asia.

Not So Classic selections reflect South Florida’s vibrant spirit. They are crisp, refreshing, fruit-based and easy to enjoy. The latest addition to L Bar’s Not So Classic offerings is the Hibiscus Punch made with Flor de Caña Rum, fresh lemon, hibiscus syrup, pineapple and raspberries.

L Bar offers something for everyone from signature cocktails and premium tequilas to unaged, unoaked mezcals, and local craft and imported beer, wine and champagne. Spirit Free creations are also available. Each thirst-quenching alcohol-free beverage is thoughtfully made with fresh ingredients inspired by the season. Creative options include Blood Orange Cooler with agave nectar, blood orange, mint and fresh lime; Grape Rosemary Smash with rosemary, green grapes, and fresh lime, topped with rosemary sprigs; and Watermelon Cilantro Fresca with cilantro, watermelon chunks, fresh lime and agave nectar.

Vincent Moscati

On a flop of Qc7s2h, a player in middle position checked and Vincent Moscati bet 600 from late position.

Moscati’s opponent calls and the turn is the Jd. Both players check and the river is the Ac. Action checked to Moscati again and he bet again, this time 700.

His opponent called and Moscati wins the pot with Qd8s. Moscati dragged the pot, but was still slightly below his original starting stack.

Vincent Moscati – 17,500

Peter Vitantonio

Peter Vitantonio raised to 5,000 on the button and the player in the big blind defended.

The flop was Td4c2d and the big blind checked. Vitantonio bet and the big blind called. They both checked the 6s turn card and the 8h came on the river.

The big blind leads out for 5,000 and Vitantonio quickly calls. The big blind shows Jd9d, giving him a missed flush draw, and Vitantonio tabled AcKs to win the pot with ace-high.

Vitantonio scooped the pot with about 10 minutes remaining before the staff pauses the clock, plays a set amount of hands and bags up chips for the flight.

Peter Vitantonio – 68,000
