Team Gangloff Gone

Level 22 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Team Gangloff shoved all in for their last 30,000 or so from the under-the-gun position and action folded all the way to Team Clarke in the big blind who asked how much it was for. Before the dealer could even count Team Gangloff's stack, Team Clarke already made the call.

Team Gangloff: {A-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Team Clarke: {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

The board ran out {k-Spades}{2-Clubs}{j-Spades}{6-Clubs}{j-Hearts} to give Team Clarke a pair of kings on the flop and improve to two pair on the river to eliminate Team Gangloff in 23rd place.

Team Levy: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Team Simpson: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Board: {7-Hearts}{2-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades}

Level 21 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

The flop read {9-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and Team Gardner was all in and at risk from early position as they had been called by Team Lamphere in the big blind.

Team Gardner: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

They had both flopped a set with Team Lamphere holding the higher set with the jacks.
