"sqpolu" got a huge gift when they woke up with aces in a three-way all-in. "sqpolu" raised to 6,000 under the gun before "kingzionlion" bombed the pot for a shove of 218,903. "Flipper121" called off a short stack from the button, and "sqpolu" snapped it off with the aces.

"Flipper121": {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
"sqpolu": {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
"kingzionlion": {k-Spades}{5-Spades}

"Timmys3" Gets There for Another

Level 17 : 1,250/2,500, 300 ante

"Timmys3" is running well now, as they are up to almost 250,000 in chips over just a few minutes. In the latest hands, the money went in on the flop after they hit a set of treys to crack aces and knock out Croatian player "OnTheEdgeT8s". On the following hand, "Timmys3" picked up nearly 100,000 more after flopping Broadway with ten-jack.

Blinds: 1,250/2,500

"Timmys3" Gets There with Flush

Level 16 : 1,000/2,000, 250 ante

"Timmys3" raised from the middle to 4,000 and "brut65" defended the big blind with a call. The flop came {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs} and "brut65" led for 2,000.

"Timmys3" called to the {4-Spades} turn where they called another minimum bet. On the {9-Spades} river, "brut65" fired 12,705 into a pot of just over 19,000, then called off when "Timmys3" shoved with less.

"Timmys3": {8-Spades}{7-Spades}
"brut65": {7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}

Both players rivered big, but "Timmys3" running flush was the best.
