Ballard Makes the Correct Call-Down

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Christopher Ballard opened for 35,000 on the cutoff, and Ling Qin flat called from the small blind.

The flop came {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}, and Ballard continued for 47,000, and Qin made the call. Both players checked through the {7-Spades} turn, and the {10-Diamonds} fell on the river.

Qin led out for 75,000 and Ballard called. Qin immediately mucked without even showing his hand, and Ballard dragged the pot and showed {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}.

Asi Moshe
Asi Moshe

Walking around the mass field of players we came across Asi Moshe involved in a hand against Ryan Remmes. All the chips were in the middle with a board showing {10-Spades}{2-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades} and both players had their hands tabled.

Ryan Remmes: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
Asi Moshe: {q-Spades}{9-Spades}

We are unsure when the chips in the middle but one thing is for certain, the 3x bracelet winner is stacking chips early on in Day 2 as he eliminated Remmes from the tournament.
