October 26 2011, Chad Holloway

The march to the 2011 World Series of Poker November Nine continued Tuesday with two new Main Event episodes on ESPN. Last week, Day 7 came to a close with Anton Makiievskyi leading the remaining 22 players. Joining him are Player of the Year contender, Ben Lamb; son of a poker great, Eoghan O’Dea; and one-time chip leader, Ryan Lenaghan.

Here’s a look at the top chip counts at the start of Day 8:

Let’s Get It Started: With blinds at 100,000/200,000 with a 30,000 ante, Martin Staszko raised to 400,000 from the small blind with , and John Hewitt called from big blind, holding . Both players checked the flop, as well as the turn. When the appeared on the river, Staszko bet out 475,000, which Hewitt called. Staszko rolled over his hand for queens and eights with an ace kicker, which beat Hewitt’s king kicker.

Aces Cracked Send Bonding to the Rail: Lars Bonding looked down at and opened for 455,000, which Khoa Nguyen called from the button with . Costa Mamaliadis came along for the ride with and action was three-handed to the flop.

Mamaliadis checked with his set, opening the door for Bonding to bet 550,000. Nguyen got out of the way, Mamaliadis raised to 2.3 million, and Bonding moved all-in for 3,655,000. Mamaliadis snap-called and Bonding discovered the bad news. Neither the turn nor river help Bonding, and he made his exit from the Main Event in 22nd place ($302,005).

Cowboy Devonshire?: ESPN aired a feature starring Bryan Devonshire that showed him in Colorado, trap shooting, horseback riding, and engaging in general ranching duties. It was a unique look at the unassuming pro who tends to don San Francisco Giants gear.

Makiievskyi Gets Moore: Chip leader Anton Makiievskyi opened for 450,000 with only to have Chris Moore, who held , make it 1,000,000 to go. Action folded back around to Makiievskyi and he glanced at his opponent, looked down at his chips, and moved all-in. Moore snap-called for 6.5 million and was a 71 percent favorite to win the hand.

Unfortunately for Moore, his opponent was running well and this hand was no different as the flop came down . Suddenly Makiievskyi was an 88 percent favorite. The turn improved that number to 95 percent, while the sent Moore to the rail in 21st place for $302,005.

Aces, Kings, and Queens: On the outer table, Alexadre Mozhnyakov raised to 420,000 and was called by Scott Schwalich. Pius Heinz then three-bet to 1,125,000 from the small blind, Mozhnyakov four-bet to 1.7 million, and Schwalich five-bet shoved for 5.42 million. Heinz double-checked his before tossing them to the muck, and Mozhnyakov made the call.
