From the hijack seat, Rocco Palumbo raised to 8,500. Oleksandr Gnatenko called from the hijack seat, and then Steve Warburton reraised from the small blind to 26,500. Brandon Uhl folded from the big blind, Palumbo folded, and then Gnatenko moved all in after getting a count on Warburton's remaining stack. Warburton quickly called with the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}, and Gnatenko had the {A-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

Jacks on Jacks

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Jim Collopy raised to 9,000 under the gun and from his left it was Dutchman Bas de Laat who three-bet to 21,500. The action folded to Patrick Mahoney who tanked for a while before folding, and Collopy called when it got back to him.

On a {10-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Clubs} board the action was slowly checked down, and Collopy showed {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds} against De Laat's {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}.

Mahoney laughed, sighed and said, "That's what I get for being a nit, I would've had both of you dead on the flop," as he pointed at the ten on the board.

Mahoney claimed to have folded tens, and this pot was chopped between Collopy and De Laat.
