Hinkle vs. Hughes

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

Tim Hughes opened for 28,000 from early position and then called when Blair Hinkle three-bet to 55,000 from the button. Both players checked the {q-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} flop, the dealer burned and turned the {4-Diamonds}, and Hinkle called a bet of 60,000 from Hughes. Both players returned to checking on the {8-Clubs} river and Hughes tabled the {K-Spades}{9-Spades}. Unfortunately for him, Hinkle held the winner with the {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}.

Waite Outflops Small

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

Sean Small has just taken a huge hit to his previously-second-place stack.

Small opened for 29,000 in middle position, and Brendan Waite, in the cutoff, three-bet him for the second straight hand. Small was ready with a four-bet this time, to 190,000. Waite tanked before calling. The players took in a {6-Spades}{7-Clubs}{8-Clubs} flop, and both checked. The turn paired the board with the {7-Hearts}, and Small checked once again. Waite bet 118,000, and Small put him all in for 334,000 total. Waite instantly called, and his hand set off murmurs from the railbirds.

Waite: {Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Small: {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}

Small had no outs, and his stack has dropped to 418,000, while Waite sits with over a million.

Hinkle Picks the Wrong Time to Shove

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

Grant Hinkle opened for 30,000 from early position only to have Sterling
 Savill, who was seated to his immediate left, three-bet to 57,000. Action folded back around to Hinkle and he made the call before checking the {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} flop. Savill continued for 61,000 and Hinkle thought for a bit before announcing that he was all in. Savill, who had 259,000, couldn't call fast enough.

Savill: {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}
Hinkle: {J-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

Savill was ahead with two pair, but Hinkle was drawing to a double-gutted straight draw. The {J-Diamonds} turn meant another on the river would also give Hinkle the win, but it wasn't in the cards as the harmless {5-Diamonds} peeled off.

Leshovsky Doubles in Last Hand Before the Break

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

In the last hand before the break, Andrew 
Leshovsky managed to double through Brendan Waite.

We caught the action with around 60,000 in the pot and a board reading {4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. Waite had checked from the big blind, Leshovsky bet 25,000 from the hijack, and Waite woke up with a check-raise to 95,000. Leshovsky proceeded to move all in for 146,000 and Waite was hesitant but made the call nonetheless.

Leshovsky: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}
Waite: {K-Spades}{6-Diamonds}

Waite needed either a king or five on the river to eliminate Leshovsky, but it wasn't in the cards as the {10-Diamonds} blanked on the river.
