Tor Ivarsson

Tor Ivarsson was forced all-in in the big blind for his last 12,000. Action folded to Christopher Philippou in the small blind who made the call.

Tor Ivarsson: K?K?A?4? All in
Christopher Philippou: 10?6?3?2?

Ivarsson had woken up with kings, but was behind after the 10?8?6? flop gave Philippou two pair, the Q? turn and 5? river failing to alter matters.

Albeck Spikes River to Double via Fisher

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Short-stack Samuel Albeck moved all in from under the gun for 38,000, and Slade Fisher repotted it from the button, forcing out the rest of the table.

Samuel Albeck: Q?J?9?8? All in
Slade Fisher: K?K?9?5?

Albeck looked in trouble versus Fisher's pocket kings, and the A?Q?4? flop only provided him with a pair of queens. The 7? turn was a brick, but the Q? rolled off on the river to give Albeck trip queens and the double-up.
