It folded to David Palek in early position who moved all in for about 33,000 before a player in middle position called and then Roberto Ilagan called from the button. They were off to a flop three-ways with Pelak all in.

The J210 flop hit the felt and action checked through to a 9 turn and it checked to Ilagan who bet 25,000. The middle position player called.

The river brought a 3 and it checked through again.

"Triple up!" Palek said as he tabled KQ

Ilagan tabled 77 and the middle position player mucked.

Palek got a pure double and Ilagan won a small side pot.

McDonald Picks His Spot

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

John McDonald opened the button to 6,000. The small blind got out of the way and the big blind called.

The 335 flop landed and without thinking for long the big blind opted to lead out for 11,000. McDonald went into the tank for a few moments before eventually finding a call.

The K landed on the turn and the big blind slowed down and checked. McDonald didn't think for long and then put out a bet of 12,000. His opponent cut out the chips but thought better of it after a few moments and returned his cards to the dealer.

McDonald dragged the pot right after the close of late registration.
