Vaiginas Doubles on Bubble via Decesare

Level 13 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Shaun Decesare
Shaun Decesare

Richard Broda opened to 24,000, and Marijus Vaiginas, who had been nursing a micro stack for a while, moved his last 4,000 into the middle from the small blind. Shaun Decesare also called in the big blind.

On the 1074 flop, Decesare led out with a bet of 15,000, and Broda folded.

Marijus Vaiginas: A9 All in
Shaun Decesare: 75

Decesare was ahead with a pair of sevens, but Vaiginas went runner-runner on the J3 runout to hit the nut flush, much to the other players displeasure.

Ladies for Reyes to Bust Dyminski

Level 12 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Jack Dyminski
Jack Dyminski

Luna Reyes raised to 74,000 from early position, leaving himself 1,000 behind.

Jack Dyminski was in the big blind, with around 65,000 behind, and he pondered the spot before moving all in.

Jack Dyminski: J9 All in
Luna Reyes: QQ

Dyminski was in trouble, and although he flopped a flush draw, he was drawing dead by the turn on the 772QJ runout after Reyes made a full house. We are now on the bubble.
