Diamond Freerolls, Hits Big

On a flop of {K-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} with 40,000 or so already in the pot, Richard Furay moved all in for just under 50,000 in chips and was called by Gary Diamond who tabled {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for an up and down straight flush draw. Furay turned over the same hand, but in diamonds, meaning the worst case scenario for Diamond was a chopped pot.

The worst for Furay, however, was that a club would fall, giving Diamond a flush and that's exactly what happened when the {3-Clubs} popped off on the turn.

The river, though irrelevant, was the {8-Spades} and Furay was eliminated from the tournament. After the hand, Diamond stacked up just over 300,000 in chips.

Gill Eliminates Dekkers

Carter Gill raised preflop to 5,000 and Francisicus Dekkers made it 15,000 to go. Gill then came over the top to put Dekkers to a decision for all of his chips. He made the call showing {A-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and it proved to be the correct one against Gill's {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. But the board of {J-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{5-Spades} gave Gill trip jacks and eliminated Dekkers from the tournament.

Three Way All In on River

Some amazing early action on on table 15 with a three way all in on the river!

Vera Milinkovic was loving the action holding {A-Spades}{J-Spades} on a board of {8-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and raked in a great early pot against two opponents - one held a smaller flush and the other had a straight!
