Level 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Action was picked up on the flop of 4♣8♠9♥. Nick Petrangelo in the cutoff was facing a raise to 38,000 from Harvey Jackson in the big blind. Petrangelo made the call.

On the J♠ turn, Jackson moved all in and Petrangelo made a quick call but was at risk.

Nick Petrangelo: J♥10♠ All in
Harvey Jackson: 4♦4♥

Petrangelo was in bad shape against Jackson's set but did have outs to improve. The J♠ landed on the river to upgrade both players' hands, but it was Jackson's full house that was best against Petrangelo's trips.

Harvey Jackson	375,000 25,000	25,000

"I am all in. No snap-call, please," Ren Lin said as he put in his last 50,000 from the hijack. He avoided calls up to Jean-Noel Thorel in the big blind, but Thorel did snap-call to put Lin at risk.

Jean-Noel Thorel: 10♦10♥

"Lady Gaga, king Gaga," Lin said as he revealed his cards. The board ran out 8♠6♣5♦7♠2♠ and Thorel's two tens stayed in the lead to send Lin to the rail yet again.
