Smith checked after flopping middle pair and Pavlov continued with a bet of 235,000. He was called by Pavlov and they saw the {7-Hearts} being dealt on the turn.

Level 30 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Von Dobeln Doubles Through McCague

Level 30 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Kyle McCague raised from under the gun and Carl Von Dobeln three-bet all in for 1,700,000 from the cutoff. McCague called and they opened up.

Carl Von Dobeln: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Kyle McCague: {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

The board ran out with the {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop that gave the lead to McCague, but the {k-Hearts} turn and {8-Hearts} river runout gave the flush to Van Dobeln to stay alive after the ten hit on the flop.

Smith Slowplays Kings

Level 30 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Claudiu Radasciuc raised to 330,000 from the button with {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and he was called by big blind Gareth Smith who had {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs} and decided to play slow.

The flop fell {9-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs} and both players checked, Smith again with his pocket kings. The turn was the {q-Diamonds} and Smith bet 500,000 this time and that was too much for Radasciuc who got out of the way.
