Level 34 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Sean Quinn
Sean Quinn

Sean Quinn was all in for just over 8,000,000 holding {a-Clubs}{k-Spades} against the {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds} of Mohammed Bhatti.

The flop {k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades} had Bhatti shaking his head as the {9-Clubs}{10-Spades} board completed, seeing Quinn double up to sit atop the chip counts.

Black Sent Home By Kipling

Level 34 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

John Black and Robert Kipling got all their chips in the middle before the flop, with Black at risk of elimination.

John Black: {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}
Robert Kipling: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

"Come on, hold one time," pleaded Black, "ok just a little sweat though," he added in true poker fashion.

But the flop of {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{9-Spades} left him pretty far behind Kiplings pair of aces, and the runout of {k-Spades}{9-Clubs} completed the board and Black was eliminated.

Harris Doubles Through Man

Level 34 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Ka Wai Man shoved for around 5,500,000 and was called in the big blind by Jack Harris who was all in for 3,250,000.

Jack Harris: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Ka Wai Man: {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}

Harris' pocket pair held on the {q-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop and despite the {q-Hearts} turn opening both flush and counterfeit outs, the river {7-Clubs} bricked and he doubled up.

Cheslin Doubles Against Georgescu's Jacks

Level 34 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Luke Cheslin moved all in on the button and Georgian Georgescu quickly called from the big blind, putting Cheslin at risk.

Luke Cheslin: {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Georgian Georgescu: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

"Wow, how do you wake up with jacks there," someone said, but the flop of {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{3-Hearts} was not favorable to jacks, as it gave Cheslin trip aces. The board completed with {10-Diamonds}{5-Spades} to award Cheslin the full double up.

Yu Eliminates Opponent After "Troll" Flop

Level 34 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

H N shoved blind on blind for around 3,000,000 and Trevor Yu snap-called in the big blind.

H N: {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Trevor Yu: {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

There was a deuce in the window but the {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} kept Yu in front.

"What a troll flop," said someone on the rail as the {3-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} completed the board, sending H N to the rail.

The tournament is now one elimination away from the three-table redraw.
