Kyle Stronski
Kyle Stronski

Kyle Stronski shoved under the gun with the shortest stack, and it folded around to Lyndon Knutson, and he asked for a count. Before the dealer was even finished, he made the call.

Stronski had {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs} against the {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} of Knutson. Stronski hit the flop on the board of {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{7-Spades} but he also turned two pair at the worst time, as Knutson turned Broadway. Stronski made $14,113 for 5th place.

Jason Topp

Jason Topp was the first into the pot, shoving for 800,000. It folded to Dallas Larson on the hijack, and he reshoved over top with more than a million.

John Hashem made it a third shove from the button, with a stack that covered both of them, and it was a massive three-way hand. Hashem had the best of it with pokcet tens, while Larson was playing {a-Spades}{k-Spades} to Topp's {q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}.

The board of {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} ran clean for Hashem and he scored a huge double knockout.
