A player opened to 3,100 and another made it 8,500 in the hijack. Lance Harris was in the next seat and crammed for 24,200. Action folded back to the reraiser, who sat back and crossed his arms, asking for a count. After getting a quote, he tossed in a call.

Harris: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Opponent: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Harris' sweat looked to be a short one after {q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flopped, but a {j-Diamonds} gave him a small chance. The {k-Clubs} river wasn't enough.

Rocco Bluffs Off Stack; Capps Reenters

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

We found Michael Rocco all in for 17,200 in the small blind on a {7-Spades}{5-Hearts}{q-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} board.

"Wow, I hit the river," his opponent mused. "I think my hand's good."

She counted out calling chips.

"Such a fish," she said to herself. "All right, I'm going to pay you."

"You're good," Rocco said, showing {k-}{j-}.

Rocco's opponent showed {9-Spades}{6-Spades}.

At another table nearby, Jesse Capps sat down with a fresh stack.

Capps Survives

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Jesse Capps shoved in for 18,100 in the hijack, and the player in the big blind called.

Capps: {k-Spades}{4-Clubs}
Big blind: {a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}

The flop brought plenty of paint but the {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} missed Capps and he got up. The turn was a different story: {k-Hearts} giving Capps a big lead. The {3-Hearts} river was a blank.

Ship One to Roy

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Patrick Roy shoved all in for 31,100 in the big blind over an open to 4,600 from the hijack. That player tanked and called. Roy flipped {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} in.

"I guess we're flipping," his opponent said.

"Real flipping or fake flipping?" Roy asked.

It was fake as Roy was ahead of {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}. The board ran out {3-Clubs}{a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, preserving the ace-king's lead.
