The flop read {2-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} when all the chips went in for Faisal Siddiqui in the big blind, Melanie Hennigan on the button and they were called and covered by Stephen Deutsch in the small blind.

Faisal Siddiqui: {j-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Melanie Hennigan: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Stephen Deutsch: {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}

The rest of the board was completed with the {10-Clubs} on the turn and the {9-Hearts} on the river for Deutsch to hold with the set of treys to eliminate both of his opponents.

No Backpack!

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Pearce Arnold

Cordero Hines raised to 7,500 from the middle position and Keun Kwak shoved from the cutoff for 44,500 and got up from his chair and put his backpack on. Dave Alfa shoved too for just over 200,000 and got up from his chair too before putting his backpack on. Pearce Arnold in the big blind looked at his cards, confirmed the amount of Kwak's shove, and then made the call before getting up from his chair too.

Keun Kwak: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Dave Alfa: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Pearce Arnold: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

The board ran out {5-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{5-Spades} for Arnold to flop a set and improve to a full house on the turn to eliminate Kwak and earn a full double-up for the 81,000 he had behind.

"No backpack!" Arnold said with a big smile which earned him some laughter and a fist pump of Hines.
