Dallas Flowers raised to 55,000 from the cutoff and John Juanda made the call from the big blind, bring us a flop of {6-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

When Juanda moved all in, Flowers made the quick call and the hands were shown.

Juanda: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{8-Spades}{9-Spades}
Flowers: {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

Juanda needed a spade, 7 or and ace to double up, but none of them showed up when the board finished with the {6-Clubs} and {Q-Clubs}.

Juanda finished in ninth place and took home $24,207 for his third final table appearance of this series.

Ross Boatman raised to 45,000 from middle position and got called by Theo Jorgensen on the button.

After a flop of {A-Spades}{4-Clubs}{J-Clubs}, Boatman studied the flop for more than a minute while riffling his chips. When Jorgensen finally pointed out it was Boatman's action, Boatman apologized and threw 100,000 into the middle. Jorgensen folded and Boatman quickly remembered to stack the chips.
