Talk About an "Action Flop"

Action folded around to Jacques Zaicik in the small blind who put in a standard raise. Adam Kagin re-raised all in from the big blind and Zaicik made the call. The players showed:

Zaicik: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Kagin: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}

The flop came {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} and almost every player at the table expressed, either verbally or otherwise, their version of astonishment. The tournament director even made a point to recap the action over the P.A. system. The turn and river were blanks for Kagin who watched in disbelief as the 22,000 chip pot was pushed to Zaicik. Kagin is still alive however with a stack of about 18,000.

Jacques Zaicik Crippled

Action folded around to Jacques Zaicik on the button who raised to 4,000. Jason Min moved all in from the big blind for 26,000. Zaicik made the call and the players turned up their hands:

Zaicik: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Min: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

Min was essentially drawing to three outs and the flop contained one of them. The {A-Diamonds} was the door card and it's arrival left Zaicik with a one-outer that never came. He is now down to 7,000 chips while Jason Min climbs to about 50,000.

Jozef Berec Doubles Up

Jozef Berec just found himself all in on a flop of {K-Spades}{2-Hearts}{3-Spades}. While Berec did have the best hand holding {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}, he couldn't have felt all that confident going up against the {5-Spades}{4-Spades} of his opponent. The turn and river came {7-Clubs} and {J-Diamonds} respectively and Berec's top pair emerged as best. He doubled up to about 66,000 chips.

Joe Hachem Eliminated

Joe Hachem Eliminated
Action folded around to Jacques Zaicik in the small blind who raised to 2,400. Joe Hachem, playing from the big blind, peeked quickly at his hole cards. After a brief deliberation, Hachem announced a re-raise. The '05 World Champ then pushed his entire chip stack across the betting line. Zaicik made the call and the players showed:

Hachem: 3-3
Zaicik: A-K

It was a coinflip situation for the Aussie that did not go his way. The {K-Diamonds} on the flop was all that was needed to give Zaicik the pot and send Hachem on his way. Ironically it was Zaicik who eliminated another Team PokerStars player Vanessa Rousso earlier in the tournament.

Action folds around to Dan Schreiber on the button who raised to 2,000. Kelly Flynn called from the small blind and the players saw a flop of:

{K-Spades}{Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}

Flynn bet 5,000 and Schreiber called. The turn brought the {7-Clubs}. Flynn bet 15,000 and Schreiber moved all in. Flynn went into the tank for a bit, but eventually called. Schreiber showed {Q-Clubs}{8-Spades} which was well ahead of Flynn's {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. The river brought the {5-Hearts} and Schreiber took down the pot and sent Flynn out the door. Schreiber is now the dominant chip leader with almost 120,000.
