Reid Surges into Lead

Level 12 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

A mid position player moved most of his stack in preflop (33,000) with just shrapnel remaining behind. There was a little confusion as Deborah Reid attempted to both call and go all in (possibly having mistaken her opponent's move for a full shove), but in the end it was taken that stacks were, in fact, all in the middle and the cards were on their backs. Reid held {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}, her opponent {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}.

"No nine," she requested. The board of {2-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts} obliged.

Since moving to her new table she says she's been on a heater, having suffered card death for most of the early stages of the day.

Lockhart Immediately Doubles Back

Level 12 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

The hand immediately following her double of Farrell, Lockhart moved all in preflop herself for 38,700, winning a fllip with {a-Spades}{j-Spades} vs. {6-}{6-} after making a straight of her own on a {10-Spades}{k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{9-Spades} board.

Farrell Calls in Four-Card Straight to Secure a Double Up

Level 12 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Niall Farrell, back from his outing, was down to roughly 30,000 when he moved in preflop vs. Vita Lockhart. She made the call quickly, showing {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} while Farrell tabled {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts} saying, "I can win with that."

His words proved prescient. The flop brought {3-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Farrell immediately said, "straight." The turn was the {2-Clubs} and sure enough the river the {6-Clubs}.

"If anyone is wondering how someone as f***ing awful as I am has made a living for the past ten years, that's how," he said.

Chun Hock Lu is maintaining his chip lead as Level 11 draws to a close, recently adding Brendan Garrett's stack of 38,300 to his own after an all-in preflop race.

Three limps for 2,000 (including from Lu on the button) prompted a preflop shove from Garrett with {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}. Lu had flatted pre with {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, called the shove and held over the {5-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} runout.
