Her opponent tabled {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}.

The flop brought two hearts and the turn was the {j-Hearts}, completing the flush for Wolkomir.

The river was a blank, and her opponent didn't make a full house and was eliminated.

Aces for Delavergne

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Mike Delavergne
Mike Delavergne

A middle position player opened the pot for 3,000 and Mike Delavergne three-bet to 7,000 from the hijack. The initial raiser called and the two players saw a flop of {9-Spades}{5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}.

The middle position player checked and Delavergne continued for 9,000. His opponent called.

The dealer added the {4-Spades} to the board, and again the initial raiser checked.

Delavergne announced himself all-in and the initial raiser asked for a count. Delavergne's bet was for 29,800. His opponent cut 30,000 out of his stack and counted down the rest, which would be around 35,000. After another minute in the tank, he decided to fold and the pot was pushed to Delavergne.

Delavergne turned his hand face up to reveal {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}.

You Can't Catch Alan Misenheimer

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Four players saw the flop for 2,000 each.

The flop was {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and two players checked. The third player moved all-in for 7,600 and Alan Misenheimer called behind him. The two players who checked folded.

"I gotta catch up," the at-risk player said turning over {7-Spades}{3-Spades} for a gut-shot straight draw.

"You can't catch up," replied Misenheimer who tabled {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}.

The turn and the river were meaningless and Misenheimer collected the pot and sent his opponent to the rail.

Slate Doubles Through Guidry

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

Mike Guidry raised to 2,600 in the cutoff and got one caller, Michael Slate in the big blind. Slate was short with just 12,600 left after the preflop call.

The flop came {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{10-Spades} and Slate immediately moved all-in. Guidry snap-called and the hands were turned up.

Slate - {q-Spades}{9-Spades}
Guidry - {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Guidry's kings were ahead but the {j-Hearts} on the turn gave Slate a few more outs to a straight. The river came the {q-Hearts} to fill up Slate and put a modest dent in Guidry's stack.
