Hearts For Overton

Level 14 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

We caught up to find Aaron Overton and an opponent looking down at a completed board of {A-Hearts}{k-Spades}{6-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. With well over 26,000 already in the middle, Overton cut out a bet of 8,700. His opponent went into the tank for about ninety seconds before flinging out a call.

Overton showed {Q-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for the highest possible flush. His opponent mucked and Overton dragged in the pot. He's now sitting at about 105,000.

Rice Triples, Carlton Survives, and Clinkscales Pays

Level 13 : 700/1,400, 200 ante

Rex Clinkscales opened with a raise to 3,100 from early position. It folded around to Everett Carlton who called from the cutoff. Sean Rice moved all in for 10,400 total from the button and action came back around to Clinkscales. He inquired how much Carlton had behind then announced that he was all in over the top.

Carlton mulled back and forth for a moment before announcing a call.

Rice: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Carlton: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Clinkscales: {A-Spades}{9-Spades}

Rice jumped way out into the lead when the {Q-Spades}{K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} flop fell and gave him trip queens. The {7-Clubs} turned and the {8-Spades} rivered, ensuring that he would triple up. Carlton scooped up the side pot with his jacks besting Clinkscales' ace-high.

Rice is now sitting on about 35,000 while this hand actually saw profit for Carlton who has about 60,000 in chips. Clinkscales has fallen to around 90,000.

Kessler Sends One Home

Level 13 : 700/1,400, 200 ante

We caught up to the table to see the aftermath of a hand where Allen Kessler eliminated a player from the tournament.

According to Kessler, the short stack player said he would ship all in when it came around to him and he did. Kessler picked up {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} and shipped all in over the top for about 21,000. The rest of the table folded and Kessler's hand conquered over his opponent's {k-}{8-}. The Chainsaw is now sitting on about 33,000.

Cheney Finds a Double

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

We caught up to find a late position player open the action to 2,800. Beverly Cheney moved all in for 17,700 more on top of that and it folded back around to the original raiser who called.

Cheney showed {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and was racing with her opponent's {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}. Cheney vaulted farther into the lead when the flop brought {2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and gave her middle set. The {K-Clubs} turned and ensured her a double up. The meaningless {4-Hearts} finished off the board and Cheney was pushed the pot of about 42,000 in chips.

Weber Scores Double Knockout

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

We arrived to see three players table their cards before the flop with two shorter stacks called by Matthew Weber.

Weber: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Opponent 1: {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Opponent 2: {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

The board ran out {4-Clubs}{6-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Weber's nines were able to hold, ensuring that he would reduce the field by two runners. He scooped up the pot and is now sporting a stack of about 78,000.
