Level 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

With 35,000 in the middle on a flop of Q♣2♣3♥. Hassan Nashar bet 30,000 from the small blind, and Weiran Pu called out of the big blind.

The K♥ turn checked through for the K♦ to come on the river. Nasahr bet 50,000, which was enough to get Pu to fold. Nashar let Pu pick one card, and he chose the one on the right, which was the 8♥. This meant nothing on the board, but it caused the entire table to let out some sounds of excitement.

Level 11 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Three ways to the 7♦J♣8♠ flop that saw Artur Martirosian lead out for 12,000 from the small blind. Archibald Seaton folded out of the big blind, and Jesse Lonis called from middle position.

Martirosian didn't slow down on the board-pairing J♠ turn as he put out a second bet of 40,000. Lonis carved out the call.

When the 6♣ dropped on the river, Martirosian jammed to put Lonis all in for his stack of 107,500. Lonis went into the tanl while, burning through one of his time banks. In the end, he made the call.

Martirosian revealed a total bluff with Q♠10♦. Lonis turned over 9♦9♥ for just a pair of nines and earned the huge double-up.

Player	Chips	Progress
