Andy Hwang
Andy Hwang

Andy Hwang opened the action to 35,000 and Kane Kalas moved all in behind him. Action folded back to Hwang, he called and the cards were tabled.

Hwang: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Kalas: {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}

The board ran {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{4-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. Kalas didn't improve and was sent to the rail.

Ector Takes Three-Way All In

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

We came upon the aftermath of a three-way all in that left David Lopez busted and Greg Fishberg on life support. Lopez had {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} in front of him and Fishberg {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}, but Ben Ector's {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} had crushed both on a king-high runout. Ector had 322,000, enough to cover Lopez and take nearly all of Fishberg's stack.

Fishberg was eliminated moments later.

Brandon Steven Chipping Up

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Brandon Steven
Brandon Steven

Brandon Steven increased his stack threefold since the last time we counted. We found him in a hand with Andy Hwang on a board of {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{7-Hearts}. Hwang checked. Steven bet 37,000 and Hwang called. The turn came the {3-Hearts} and both players checked. The river came the {10-Clubs}. Hwang bet 58,000 and Steven raised to 200,000.

Hwang thought for a bit, rechecked his hole cards and mucked - giving the sizable pot to Steven.
