Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Joshua McSwiney made it 35,000 to go from early position and Banipal Babana shoved around 125,000 from the big blind. McSwiney snap-called.
Banipal Babana: A♥10♣ 
Joshua McSwiney: 9♦9♠
Babana needed to win the flip to stay in contention but was left drawing extremely thin after the 2♥Q♦9♣ flop gave McSwiney middle set. The 7♥ turn left Babana dead, and the meaningless 5♥ filled out the board.

Jehu then showed the flopped the nuts with Q♦J♣, and Burns mucked.

Joseph Antar made it 30,000 from the hijack and Kahle Burns three-bet the cutoff to 90,000. Once it got back to Antar, he called.
The flop came 3♥8♥2♣ and Antar check-called a bet of 110,000 from Burns to see the 6♠ drop on the turn. Again Antar checked, and again Burns fiired, this time for 200,000. Antar took close to two minutes before he opted to shove around 800,000. Burns snap-folded.

Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Shan Huang had been short-stacked for quite some time and finally got his last 200,000 into the middle. Kahle Burns made the call.
Shan Huang: 7♥7♦
Kahle Burns: J♦J♠
Huang was crushed by the overpair of Burns and didn't find much help on the 2♥2♣A♠ flop. A 9♠ on the turn left him with one more shot at two outs, but the seven from heaven didn't appear as the Q♣ filled out the board.

Liam Jehu raised to 55,000 from the small blind and Joshua McSwiney called in the big blind.
The flop came 2♦A♣8♣ and jehu put out a bet, which McSwiney called to see the 9♦ turn. Jehu then shoved, and McSwiney snap-called for his last 245,000.
Joshua McSwiney: K♦K♠
Liam Jehu: 5♣3♣
McSwiney couldn't have gotten his chips in faster and seemed to know his kings were best, but the job wasn't done just yet. Jehu had a flush draw and a gutshot, which if he connected with, would leave the field on the bubble. Insteasd, the Cowboys held up as the 10♠ filled out the board, earning McSwiney a double-up.
