Thondup Crushes Another

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

On a dead king-high board, a player in early position shoved all in for 19,000 and got snap-called by TJ Thondup. The all-in player showed what looked like top pair of kings but it was quickly swept into the muck as Thondup held {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} for a set.

Hastings Busts Johnson

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Aaron Johnson
Aaron Johnson

For at least the second time that we saw, Aaron Johnson opened for a raise and got three-bet to 6,100 by the opponent on his left, Corey Hastings, who was in the cutoff this hand. Johnson came back with a four-bet all in for about 35,000 and his Hastings thought briefly and called.

Johnson: {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}
Hastings: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

A board of {3-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} left Hastings in need of river help, but he got it when the {k-Spades} arrived.

A KO for Thornton

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Schuyler Thornton just made aces full with {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds} to bust a player who flopped trip tens with {10-Clubs}{6-Clubs} on a board of {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. We didn't see when the money went in, as the pot was already being pushed to Thornton when we got to the table.

Khait Doubles

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Anna Khait put in her last 8,200 from a middle position and a player in the cutoff isolated with a reraise to 25,000.

Khait: {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}
Cutoff: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {7-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, clean for the fours.

"I wanted to keep you around," the player in the cutoff joked. "Didn't wanna have to look at these guys any more."

At a nearby table, Josh Reichard has taken a seat. He's a four-time WSOPC ring winner with north of $350,000 in cashes.

Thondup showed {j-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and scooped the pot.

Players are on break for 30 minutes.
