Flavin Almost Calls, Changes His Mind

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

With the flop reading {3-Spades}{a-Spades}{3-Spades}, Ray Flavin checked and Lance Donnell went all in from early position, for his last 111,000.

Flavin started putting together a big stack for a possible call. "I'm going to miss these guys," said Flavin, sounding like he was ready to make the call.

A few seconds later, Flavin chose to fold, shipping the pot to Donnell.

Gindi Gets a Double

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Bill Richter limped in from under the gun, and Josh Gindi jammed for 45,000 from the cutoff. Jon Turner three-bet shoved for 115,000 in the big blind, and Richter folded.

Josh Gindi: {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Jon Turner: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}

Turner held on the {2-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop, but the {q-Clubs} turn gave Gindi a Broadway draw to go with his overs. The {10-Hearts} river gave Gindi a winning pair of tens and the double.

Richter Finds a Set on the River

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Chris Linder open raised from middle position, Bill Richter three-bet from the small blind, and Lindner called.

Both players checked the flop {6-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}, and turn {k-Hearts}.

The river came {q-Spades}, Richter bet 25,000 and Lindner called. Lindner could only laugh it off when Richter turned over {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, good for a rivered full house.

Dynamic Flop, Ends With a Chop

Level 16 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Tyler Burke opened to 14,000 from early position, and Larry Stallard three-bet all in from the big blind. Burke made the call.

Larry Stallard: {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Tyler Burke: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}

Stallard's tournament life was at risk against the big stack of Burke, and the flop came out an interesting {j-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}, putting Burke ahead but giving Stallard the slight edge in equity, with bottom pair and an open-ended royal flush draw. The turn came {8-Spades}, the river {9-Hearts}, and the hand ended in a chop, with both players holding the king-high straight.

Fenton Up Big Early

Level 16 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Paul Hendee and DJ Fenton were heads up on the river, with the board showing {7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{j-Spades}{q-Diamonds}.

Hendee (known as OTWPaul) put out a bet for 30,000, and Fenton thought it over for a bit before making the call. Fendee had turned his missed flush draw into a bluff, showing {a-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. Fenton snapped off the bluff, calling with {k-Spades}{j-Clubs}.

"The Golden Blazer" Has Been Extinguished

Level 16 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

After four people built up a pot of 60,000 and saw a {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} flop together, Brian "The Golden Blazer" Frenzel jammed his last 58,000 in from the big blind, and only Michael Yoshihara called to put him at risk.

Brian Frenzel: {k-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Michael Yoshihara: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

"I'm live!" Frenzel said with a smile. The {8-Hearts} turn bricked Frenzel's flush draw, and the {a-Spades} river left Yoshihara's set in front for the elimination.

Shipley's Queens Hold Up

Level 16 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Mitchell Cogert went all in preflop from middle position, and Jared Shipley reshoved from the button. All other players folded.

Mitchell Cogert: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Jared Shipley: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Board: {6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Shipley stood up and asked his queens to hold up several times during the runout, and that request came through, sending Cogert to the exit.
