David Salituro

Level 6 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Around 20,000 was already in the pot as Dean Lyall and David Jackson went to the turn on a board of J♦7♠J♥10♥. Lyall then bet 7,000 from the big blind, Jackson raised to 18,000 under the gun, and Lyall called.

The river was the 10♦ and Lyall moved all in for 25,000. Jackson snap-called and Lyall turned over 10♣10♠ for running quads.

"Wow," Jackson yelled out, showing A♣J♣ for a full house as the massive pile of chips worth more than 100,000 was pushed to Lyall.

Level 8 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Cameron Johnston was down to his last 4,000 and moved all in from under the gun. Marius Varanavicius called in early position, but Daniel Gormley, coming off an eighth-place finish in the High Roller earlier today, reraised to 12,000 in middle position. The table folded back to Varanavicius who quickly folded.

Cameron Johnston: Q♠5♥ All in
Daniel Gormley: K♠K♥

Johnston was far behind Gormley's kings but picked up some outs on the 10♠J♠5♣ flop. The 5♦ turn improved him to trips, while the 2♣ river sealed his triple up. Even Gormley joined in as the table shared a laugh over the bad beat.

Level 8 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Jack Hardcastle had just taken his seat in the tournament as he and an opponent each put in 6,000 before the flop.

The flop came A♠9♣8♥ and the player in the cutoff moved all in. Hardcastle paued for a moment but eventually called for his last 20,600 on the button.

Jack Hardcastle: K♦9♦ All in
Opponent: J♥10♥

Hardcastle was ahead with his pair of nines, while his opponent was on a straight draw. The 4♥ turn also meant Hardcastle had to avoid a flush draw, and his opponent missed the 5♠ river as Hardcastle held on to double up.

Ian Simpson was recently eliminated from this table.
