Evans Climbing

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

James Anderson made it 40,000 to go from the small blind and Josh Evans made the call from the big blind to see a {7-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{K-Hearts} flop fall.

A bet and a call were exchanged before Evans fired out 74,000 when the {A-Diamonds} landed on the turn. Anderson check-called before both players tapped the table when the {9-Clubs} landed.

Evans tabled his {A-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and Anderson folded to see his stack slip to roughly 400,000 while Evans moved up to 850,000 in chips.

Barnhart Survives on River

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

On the final hand of the level we found Sam Barnhart opening with a button raise which Josh Evans called in an effort to defend his big blind.

On a flop of {6-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{2-Spades} Evans check-called a Barnhart bet before the {7-Spades} on the turn saw Barnhart hold all his chips in the middle.

Barnhart: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Evans: {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}

With Barnhart needing one of eight cards to stay alive in the tournament, the {J-Hearts} would spike on the river to ensure him the double to roughly 800,000 as Evans slipped down to half a million.

Evans Dominated, Then Chops

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

James Anderson opened the button to 45,000 only to have Josh Evans move all in for 516,000 from the small blind. Sam Barnhart immediately made the call from the big blind and Anderson folded.

Evans: {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Barnhart: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}

With Evans in dominated shape, he was fortunate enough to see the dealer spread a {8-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} flop to keep him alive.

Sam Barnhart completed from the small blind and James Anderson checked in the big blind to see the flop come down {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. Both players checked and the turn brought the {A-Diamonds} to pair the board. Both checked again.

The river completed the board with the {5-Hearts} and Barnhart checked. Anderson fired 31,000 and Barnhart quickly called. He showed the {K-Spades}{6-Hearts} and won the pot as Anderson mucked his hand.
