Cramer Goes From Life Support To A Workable Stack
Level 22
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Alan Cramer was down to a single big blind. He thought another player had him covered and he was ready to walk away when the dealer tossed him two blue chips worth 25,000 each. After putting in some work, we found Cramer with around 200,000 and all in from the cut-off position. Joseph Turnbull made the call from the button and it was heads up with no more action to come.
Cramer: 
Turnbull: 
The Flop of 
didn't make Turnbull sweat but the 
turn sure did. Not only could Cramer double with a pair of fives, any six would give Cramer a straight and the win. The entire table reacted in shock when the 
arrived on the river. Andrew Dartez said, "Wow. Wow. Wow. From 50,000 to 640,000. Crazy."
Crazy indeed.
Henson Bests Sebesta
Level 22
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Edward Sebesta flatted from middle position and Ray Henson raised to 275,000 from the button. Sebesta quickly called and we were heads up going to the flop.
Flop: 
Sebesta must have liked that flop and wanted to show Henson he wasn't going away easily. Sebesta led out for 135,000. Henson didn't take long to make the call.
Turn:
Sebesta checked his option to Henson. Ray Henson did some quick math and put out a bed of 320,000. Sebesta shook his head and pushed his cards toward the dealer.

Henson Gets Value From Zhang
Level 22
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Ray Henson, on the button, raised to 60,000. Min Zhang, in the small blind position, was the only player who made the call.
Flop: 
Zhang checked her action to Henson. Henson continued for just 50,000. Zhang quickly called the bet.
Turn:
Both players checked and the 
came on the river.
Zhang checked one final time, but Henson did not. Henson tossed out five blue chips for a bet of 125,000 and Zhang quickly grabbed her calling chips but stopped just short of tossing them out. Zhang stared at the board and slowly looked at Henson, looking for a read maybe. Tense moments were relaxed when Zhang pushed her calling chips forward and Henson quickly turned over his hand.
Ray Henson: 
Zhang tapped the table and tossed her cards into the muck.
