Event 1: Le, Guagenti Double

We found Alynna Le with all of her chips in the middle and an opponent tanking on a board of {5-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{5-Clubs}. Le's opponent finally called, and Le turned over {a-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for a flopped boat. Her opponent was in a world of hurt with {a-Spades}{10-Spades}, and the {9-Hearts} and {10-Clubs} left him second best.

The next hand, a short stack pushed all in for a little more than 200,000 under the gun. Nick Guagenti immediately moved in behind him, noting that he was all in against his friend. The two friends then watched action fold around to Le, who went all in as well. Nobody behind her called.

Le: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Guagenti: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Under the gun: {q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

The {4-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} flop gave Guagenti a flush draw, and the {a-Clubs} turn gave him the best pair. A {7-Spades} completed the board, and Guagenti sent his friend to the rail while nearly tripling up.
