Olson Doubles Through Webb

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Jonathan Olson hit a flush with jacks.
Jonathan Olson hit a flush with jacks.

Stan Webb opened for 35,000 in middle position, and Jonathan Olson raised to 100,000 on the button. Action folded back to Webb, who moved all in. Olson called off his last 76,000.

Olson: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Webb: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

The {10-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop mean Olson no longer wanted to see a jack since it would make Webb a straight. The {7-Diamonds} turn meant a diamond would seal it for Olson though, and he got it with the {4-Diamonds}.

Harris Misses "The World"

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

David Gonia bet 45,000 on a {4-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop, and Lance Harris called from the cutoff. A third player who checked in early position folded, and Gonia checked the {10-Hearts} turn. Harris bet 63,000, and Gonia called. He then checked the {q-Spades} river. Harris shifted in his chair as he decided what to do before opting to check. Gonia turned over {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} for top pair on the river.

"Wow," Harris said with a smile. "I had the world there."

Players are on a 10-minute break.

Speedy Shove from Webb

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Matt McGrory fired out a bet from under the gun on a {5-Spades}{4-Spades}{q-Clubs} flop, and Stan Webb made it 100,000 to go from late position. McGrory called, and the two saw a {2-Diamonds}. McGrory checked, and Webb instantly checked it back, seeing a {9-Diamonds} complete the board. When McGrory checked the river, Webb's action was instantaneous again: a shove to put McGrory at risk for about 115,000. McGrory folded.

"I had a flush draw," Webb said, flipping {a-Spades}{3-Spades} for a flopped combo draw and a turned wheel.

"Good thing the flush didn't come," McGrory said.

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Matt Alexander risked it all with eights.
Matt Alexander risked it all with eights.

Matt Alexander opened for a raise in middle position and was called by Jim Boone on the button. Chance Lautner three-bet to an unknown amount from the big blind, and Alexander pushed all in for 340,000. Boone folded, and Lautner thought only briefly before making the call.

Alexander: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}
Lautner: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Alexander had a slight edge in the massive flip with a pair, but Lautner grabbed a big lead when the dealer spread a flop of {a-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}. The {q-Hearts} and {a-Clubs} completed the board, leaving Alexander busto and Lautner with the chip lead.
