Honeyman Binks a Ten

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Phares Bouya opened to 17,000 from under the gun, Daniel Neilson three-bet to either 40,000 or 45,000 on his direct left, and the action folded to Dylan Honeyman, who cold four-bet shoved for 263,000. The action folded back to Bouya, who tank-folded. Neilson immediately called.

Neilson: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Honeyman: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The flop fell {10-Spades}{j-Hearts}{5-Spades}, giving Honeyman a set of tens, and he held as the turn and river came {2-Spades}, {q-Hearts} respectively.

Honeyman now has around 550,000 chips, while Neilson now has just 70,000 or so.

Spades vs. Spades

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

After a series of bets and raises, Joseph Cabret was all in and at risk for his last 200,000 preflop holding {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}. Ang Pangleng had him at risk with {j-Spades}{9-Spades}, and the flop fell {k-Spades}{2-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

Pangleng flopped a flush draw, and made said flush when the {10-Spades} turned. Cabret could still survive with a fourth spade on the river, and low and behold the {8-Spades} completed the board.

Cabret doubled to around 410,000 chips, while Pangleng slipped to 815,000.

Honeyman Busts Haywood

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Just before the last break, Frank Rusnak opened for 13,000 from the hijack only to have Christopher Haywood move all in for 52,000 form the button. Dylan Honeyman flatted from the small blind, the big folded, and Rusnak got out of the way.

Honeyman: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}
Haywood: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

Haywood was crushed, but the {6-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop gave him some hope as it paired his king. All he needed was another to lock up a double, but he wouldn't find one as the {9-Spades} appeared on the turn followed by the {Q-Hearts} river.

Ivey and Antonius Win All-In Pots During Break

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

As the break began, both Patrik Antonius and Phil Ivey were involved in all-in pots. Both players won them, Ivey finding a much-needed double, and Antonius winning a big flip to cross the million-chip threshold.

On Ivey's table, he was faced with an open from Scott Wilson. He moved all in for 70,000 or so, and the action folded back to Wilson, who called.

Wilson: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Ivey: {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

The {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop was no help to Ivey, but the {k-Clubs} spiked on the turn. The enormous rail surrounding the table cheered in unison. The {10-Clubs} completed the board, and Ivey doubled to around 150,000 chips.

On an adjacent table, Antonius opened in middle position. Adam Carlton three-bet to 34,000 from the blinds, Antonius four-bet to 88,000, and Carlton moved all in for around 200,000. Antonius tank-called.

Carlton: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Antonius: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

The {9-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} flop gave Antonius a leading pair of kings, and they held as the turn and river came {8-Spades}, {5-Spades} respectively.

Carlton hit the rail, while Antonius chipped up to 1.045 million chips.
