Level 6
: Blinds 500/1,000, 125 ante
Mike ''SirWatts'' Watson open-raised to 2,300 from the hijack and got called by ''calldeKhigh'' on the button. The flop of J♥2♠K♠ saw Watson continue for 1,775 before ''calldeKhigh'' matched the bet.
On the 7♥ turn, Watson put another 5,325 in the pot, which ''calldeKhigh'' called again. The 4♣ river completed the board and Watson now checked to his opponent, who responded by putting out a small bet of 7,455.
Watson quickly called and ''calldeKhigh'' could only show a failed bluff with this 9♠8♠. Watson's pair of jacks with A♥J♠ was enough to take down the pot, and he was back to over starting stack.

''MezuuUuuT'' raised to 2,200 from under the gun before Simon ''C. Darwin2'' Mattsson three-bet to 7,280 from the next seat over. The action folded back to ''MezuuUuuT'', who made the call.
The action checked through on the 5♣9♣7♠Q♣ board until Mattsson finally put out a bet of 12,966 when the 2♣ river hit. ''MezuuUuuT'' quickly folded and Mattsson added some chips to his stack.

''Igdhuh'' was left with only 12,119 chips, which he put all in from the cutoff. ''SEATON1998'' was on the button and made the call, as did Renan "Internett93o" Bruschi from the big blind.
Bruschi then started a side pot as the 6♣J♥8♦ was spread. He led for 9,464 and received a call from ''SEATON1998''. Both players then checked the K♣ turn.
Bruschi reaggressed on the 8♥ river by putting most of his stack in the middle with a bet of 31,232. ''SEATON1998'' quickly folded and the 6♥6♠ of Bruschi scooped both pots, as the Q♥9♥ of ''Igdhuh'' was no match for Bruschi's full house.

Fintan ''easywithaces'' Hand opened from the cutoff to 2,070. The action folded to ''ilovetyumen'' in the big blind, who made a reraise to 8,280. Hand clicked on the call button and a flop of K♠10♣A♣ was spread.
''ilovetyumen'' continued with a bet of 5,904 and Hand once more obliged with a call. On the 10♠ turn, ''ilovetyumen'' upped the ante to 9,800, but still Hand was not going anywhere as he put in the same amount of chips.
The 5♦ river saw ''ilovetyumen'' finally slow down and check. Hand smelled an opportunity and put in his entire stack, worth 89,406 chips. The bet was almost twice as big as the pot and sent ''ilovetyumen'' into his time bank. Eventually, the player from Mexico folded, and Hand chipped up to an above-average stack.

: Blinds 450/900, 110 ante
''earthquakex'' raised to 2,070 from middle position and received calls from ''1_Stamf0rd'' on the button, David "MissOracle" Yan in the small blind, and ''Naveja8'' from the big blind.
The flop of 4♦10♣6♦ was checked by the quartet of players before Yan led for 2,931 when the 6♥ turn fell. ''Naveja8'' and ''earthquakex'' folded, but ''1_Stamf0rd'' was not going anywhere and made the raise to 9,243. Yan responded with a massive three-bet to 39,150 and ''1_Stamf0rd'' made the call.
The Q♥ river completed the board, and Yan took his foot of the pedal with a check. ''1_Stamf0rd'' followed suit and Yan could show nothing but 5♦3♦ for some missed draws. The trips of ''1_Stamf0rd'', who tabled 8♠6♠, were enough to rake in the big pot, and he soared above two starting stacks.
