Michael Hudson

Michael Hudson had opened on the button for 7,000 and was facing a shove from Nick Pupillo in the small blind. Hudson had around 50,000 back and he thought about 30 seconds then slid it in.

Michael Hudson: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Nick Pupillo: {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}

The {2-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Spades}{7-Hearts}{10-Clubs} board did nothing for Hudson and he headed out.

Ferrer Turns a Cinch

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Bret Martin had 22,000 in front of him under the gun, as did a player in the cutoff. Small blind Geoffrey Ferrer was all in for 40,700 and action was on Martin. He wound up folding, but the cutoff called with {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}.

Ferrer was behind with {9-Spades}{8-Spades} but the {5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop was a good start, bringing him a flush draw. The {2-Spades} made it a quick sweat as Ferrer locked up the double early.
