Level 16 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Seth Davies raised to 60,000 and Benjamin Pollak called in the big blind. On the {J-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop, Pollak check-called a small bet and did so again for 180,000 on the {Q-Spades} turn. The {Q-Clubs} river was checked by Pollak and Davies checked behind to get shown {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for trips queens by Pollak.

One hand later, Alex Foxen raised to 65,000 and Jean-Noel Thorel called in the big blind. The {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop brought no betting action and Thorel led the {8-Diamonds} turn for 150,000. Foxen moved all in and Thorel asked how much more the all in was for. Foxen's jam was for another 190,000 on top and Thorel let one time bank expire before sending his cards into the muck.
