Wolff and Winter Double

Level 28 : 15,000/30,000, 3,500 ante

Samuel Vousden raised the button and called the jam by George Wolff in the big blind.

Wolff tabled the {k-Spades}{q-Clubs} and Vousden turned over {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}. Both paired the queen but it was a major sweat throughout the {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{q-Spades}{7-Clubs} board, which kept Wolff in contention.

Sean Winter raised and then called all-in when Elio Fox three-bet jammed the covering stack in the cutoff.

Sean Winter: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Elio Fox: {q-Spades}{10-Spades}

There was also a sweat until the {k-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts}{8-Spades} turn but the {9-Hearts} river changed nothing whatsoever.

Level 28 : 15,000/30,000, 3,500 ante

Yuri Dzivielevski was at risk out of the big blind with the {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Michael Zhang had raised and called with the {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}. The {j-Clubs}{8-Spades}{3-Spades}{a-Clubs}{4-Spades} board gave the Brazilian a pair of jacks and he survived.

Sebastian "TheodoreRhye" Trisch: {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}
Sam Greenwood: {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Martirosian found no help with {a-Clubs}{4-Spades} against the {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} of Tyler "TheRayGuy" Cornell in a preflop contest. The {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{2-Clubs} board kept the pair in the lead.
