Hand #1:
Gerald Claunch raised to 1,800 from early position, and action folded to Michael Pilla in the big blind. He three-bet shoved for around 18,000, and Claunch quickly folded.
Hand #2:
The very next hand, Joseph Brose raised to 800 from the cutoff, and Pilla jammed again, this time for a little over 20,000.
"Can you spread the pot, please?" Michael Esquivel said with a grin in the big blind before folding, and Brose quickly followed suit.
