Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Action was picked up on the flop with roughly 26,000 in the pot and the board showing Q28.

The river was the 6 and after Cornwell checked, Zgorski went all in for 23,400. Cornwell gave the decision some thought before finding a fold and giving the pot to Zgorski.

After the hand Zgorski showed the tabled J10 for a missed straight and flush draw.

Chill Bombs the River

Level 10 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Both players checked after the K6Q flop.

After the 5 on the turn, Chill bet out 4,000, and Angelov raised to 11,000. Chill made the call to see a river.

The river was the J and Chill led out for a bet of 17,000. After thinking over his decision, Angelov said " Guess two pair is no good?" and folded 6x5x face up, to give Chill the pot.

Small blind: AJ All in
Peter Rook: 76

The river brought the 3 and Rook's two pair, sevens and sixes earned him the double knockout and the sizable pot.

Both players checked after the 9 turn.

The river was the 2 and Bracero bet 20,000. Zazzera quickly mucked his hand to give the pot to Bracero.

Bousman Flops a Set and Doubles Up

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Action was picked up with Joan Bousman all in for 30,600 and Chadd Beatty calling to put her at risk.

Joan Bousman: 1010 All in
Chadd Beatty: 88

Bousman was ahead with her pocket 10s, but after the 1076 flop it gave Beatty more outs despite Bousman flopping a set. However, Beatty could not improve after the 4 turn and J river, and Bousman's set of tens were still best, to secure the double up.
