Lapka Misreads His Stack; Did McKevitt Fold Quads?

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Justin Lapka moved all in for 113,000 under the gun and Benjamin McKevitt called in the cutoff. Robert Van Hoose then reraised to 265,000 in the big blind, and McKevitt folded, claiming he had two jacks.

Justin Lapka: A8 All in
Robert Van Hoose: QQ

"I had way more than I thought I did. I thought I had like 70 or 80K," Lapka said. The flop came 972, while McKevitt let out a cry when the J fell on the turn.

The river was the J and Van Hoose took the pot with his queens to send Lapka to the rail. McKevitt said he would've made quads, although the rest of the table was skeptical that he actually had jacks.

"Did you see my cards?" he asked, and one tablemate said he did see the J.

Stuck Between Serock and a Hard Place

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Joe Serock
Joe Serock

Nikolai Mamut opened to 16,000 in early position and the action folded to Joe Serock in the big blind who was down to just 100,000 chips. Serock shipped all in for a little more than 10 big blinds and Mamut didn't take long to call.

Joe Serock: 33All in
Nikolai Mamut: AJ

The flop came 755 which left Serock in the lead with his pocket pair but Mamut picked up some counterfeit possibilities. The K on the turn was a brick but the J on the river ended Serock's run.

Baby Pair Works for Hunsinger

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Baurzhan Akimov raised to 12,000 in middle position and Ryan Hunsinger called on the button. The flop came AK3 and Akimov continued with a bet, which Hunsinger called.

The turn was the 2 and Akimov counted out another bet of 45,000. Hunsinger still called and the 2 paired the board on the river. Akimov checked this time and Hunsinger took it to showdown. Akimov flipped over QJ for a missed straight draw and Hunsinger showed his 53 to earn the pot.

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Zachary Smiley moved all in from middle position and Joshua Yoon put him at risk on the button.

Zachary Smiley: QQ All in
Joshua Yoon: KK

Smiley had run his queens into Yoon's kings, and the 10106108 board offered no help as Yoon secured the pot. The stacks were counted down, and Yoon had Smiley's remaining 130,000 barely covered to send him to the rail.

Rex Clinkscales: AK

The 432 flop gave Clinkscales additional outs with a straight draw to go with his two overcards, but he missed the 7 turn and 6 river, and Renkey doubled up.

It's All Sunshine and Rainbows

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Aram Zobian opened to 12,000 from under the gun and Brandon Sunshine shoved all in for 92,000 on his left. Rhett Van Leeuwen was next to act and reshoved all in for around 170,000. The rest of the table folded, including Zobian, and the two remaining hands were face up.

Brandon Sunshine: AKAll in
Rhett Van Leeuwen: QQ

It was a classic coin flip and the flop of 332 left Van Leeuwen in the lead. The 5 on the turn gave Sunshine a straight draw but it was the K on the river that paired him up to stay alive.
