Hand #1: In Level 32 with blinds of 40,000/80,000 and an ante of 10,000, "mooseman1710" jammed for 813,000 on the button and "TheRealJanJurik" called in the big blind.

"mooseman1710": {a-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
"TheRealJanJurik": {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

"mooseman1710" did not stay ahead for long as the flop {6-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{8-Spades} put their pair of eights firmly behind the top pair of kings that "TheRealJanJurik" found. Nothing changed as the turn {6-Clubs} and river {10-Diamonds} completed the runout and "mooseman1710" finished the tournament in fourth place, earning $466.

Hand #2: Two hands later, "TheRealJanJurik" was in the big blind and involved in a heads-up pot against Chris "rumpthumper" White with their newfound stack of 1.88 million. Stacks ended up getting in on the turn with a board reading {9-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Spades} after "TheRealJanJurik" check-shoved all in and was quickly called.

"TheRealJanJurik": {q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Chris “rumpthumper” White: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

"TheRealJanJurik" found themselves up against an overpair and flush draw, and they needed to hit one of the two remaining nines in the deck to stay alive. Neither came on the river {7-Diamonds} and they were eliminated in third place for a payday of $632.
