Joe McKeehen
Joe McKeehen

Joe "fanofdapoker" McKeehen, who two weeks ago won Event #14: $3,200 No-Limit Hold'em High Roller for $352,985 (the biggest first-place prize of the 2020 WSOP Online series on WSOP.com), moved all in for 35,600 under the gun and "uosdwiSj3woH" three-bet jammed over the top for 193,594 from the cutoff. The rest of the players got out of the way and the 2015 WSOP Main Event champ discovered the bad news.

Joe "fanofdapoker" McKeehen: {k-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
"uosdwiSj3woH": {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Hearts} to give both players a straight, but McKeehen's was second best to send him out the door in 215th place for $1,817.73.

Six-Time Ring Winner Bubbles

Level 21 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Maxwell Young
Maxwell Young

Action folded to Max "Mawkswell" Young who raised to 13,434 from late position and Upeshka "gomezhamburg" De Silva three-bet to 38,880 from the button.

Action folded back around to Young who jammed for 234,068 and De Silva snap-called.

Max "Mawkswell" Young: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Upeshka "gomezhamburg" De Silva: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Young was behind and nothing changed after the {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{k-Hearts} flop.

The {6-Diamonds} turn gave Young more outs with the nut flush draw as any diamond or ace would win him the hand.

Unfortunately for Young, a third king fell on the river {k-Clubs} improving De Silva's hand to a full house and the six-time ring winner exited the tournament on the money bubble.

Unfortunately for Raymer, the {7-Diamonds} river completed Calenzo's flush and eliminated him from the tournament.

Darren Rabinowitz

Jared "DarrensRabbi" Jaffee raised to 2,343 from middle position and then called Darren "avocadotoast" Rabinowitz's 27,020 three-bet jam from the small blind.

Jared "DarrensRabbi" Jaffee: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Darren "avocadotoast" Rabinowitz: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

It was a classic race and Rabinowitz took the lead after a king appeared in the window on the {q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{k-Diamonds} flop.

The {7-Diamonds} turn was of no consequence to Rabinowitz and he was looking good to garb the double until the {j-Spades} dropped on the river to give Jaffee a set of jacks.

Kings vs. Queens vs. Jacks

Level 9 : 200/400, 40 ante

After "Mintz" raised to 800 under the gun, Landon "ActionDealer" Tice three-bet all in for 6,226 from middle position. Christopher "BilboBuyins" McNulty called next to act before "myob1029" four-bet jammed for 46,281 from the small blind. "Mintz" got out of the way and McNulty called off.

Christopher "BilboBuyins" McNulty: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Landon "ActionDealer" Tice: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
"myob1029": {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

All three players held big pocket pairs, but of course the kings of "myob1029" were best. They held too as the board ran out a clean {2-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{a-Spades}{7-Spades}.

McNulty and Tice were felted on the hand but both opted to re-enter and reload back up to a 20,000 starting stack.
