Michael Ondo: A♦10♦

The full board ran out K♥A♠K♠5♥Q♣ and Ondo would drag the pot and send his opponent to the rail.

Guay Sweats Pay Jump

Andrew Knowles

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

The action was picked up when the floor was called over for a clock called on David Guay who had only 15,000 in chips left behind in a pot of roughly 1,500,000. The flop showed Q♣10♦8♦, and after the 30-second countdown was at its final seconds, Guay checked from under the gun to his Howard Mash on the button who tossed out 60,000.

Guay was given five-seconds to act, and at the one second mark, made the call for his tournament life.

David Guay: A♣8♥
Howard Mash: 6♦6♠

The board ran out J♣5♠ and the flopped pair of eights held up for Guay to score a full double up and stay alive.

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Big Blind: A♠10♦
Ahmed Karrim: J♦7♦

The full board ran out 3♣5♠7♣K♣5♣ and Karrim would scoop a nice pot after an aggressive play.

Cajelais Cracks Kings

Maxime Taldir

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

A player in early position and Erik Cajelais in the big blind were the only two players to see the flop 10♠2♣8♠. In this hand, the player in early position bet 150,000, and Cajelais called.

But on the turn 7♥, the situation escalated as all chips went into the pot from both sides, with Cajelais at risk with 1,415,000 chips.

Erik Cajelais: 10♦7♦
Early position player: K♥K♣

Thanks to the two pairs he hit on the turn, Cajelais cracked his opponent's kings and doubled up after the river 6♦. He now belongs to the group of players with more than three million chips.

Ruiz Gets Value on River

Andrew Knowles

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

The PokerNews team caught the action on the river in a big pot of close to 700,000 on a completed board showing K♠10♣5♦8♥K♦. Vincente Ruiz bet out 250,000 from middle position and his opponent on the button went deep in the tank.

After close to a minute of thought, the button tossed in a chip for the call. Ruiz confidently tabled 8♣8♦ for a full house and scored the pot when his opponent mucked their hand.
