"IReadYrSoul"

In Level 28 with blinds of 20,000/40, "rule22" opened to 100,000 in the cutoff and "IReadYrSoul" three-bet jammed for 950,000. "rule22" called and the two were off to the races.

"IReadYrSoul": {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
"rule22": {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

"IReadYrSoul" saw a nine come on the flop {3-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{q-Clubs} and had "rule22" drawing dead on the turn {2-Clubs}. The river {2-Spades} completed the runout and the pot of nearly 2 million was shipped their way.

In Level 27 with blinds of 18,000/36,000 and an ante of 4,500, "miw210x" raised to 75,000 in the cutoff and "IReadYrSoul" three-bet jammed for 541,000 in the big blind. "miw210x" quickly called.

"IReadYrSoul": {a-Clubs}{5-Hearts}
"miw210x": {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

"IReadYrSoul" was in trouble but found four outs on the flop {2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}. The turn {10-Clubs} did not help, but the river {3-Clubs} connected to give them the wheel and earn them the double to stay alive as a result.

"King_Icon" Eliminated in 6th Place ($1,193 + $200 in Bounties)

"King_Icon"

In Level 26 with blinds of 16,000/32,000 and an ante of 4,000, "King_Icon" jammed for 317,000 under the gun and action folded around to the big blind, where "IReadYrSoul" called.

"King_Icon": {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
"IReadYrSoul": {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

"King_Icon" needed to hold in order to win the coin flip and stay alive, but instead an ace on the flop {8-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{a-Spades} spelled disaster, as nothing more than a pair of deuces {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds} came to complete the runout and result in their elimination from the tournament in sixth place.

"RickRahim"

In Level 18 with blinds of 4,000/8,000 and an ante of 1,000, "Gohednpopoff" limped under the gun and "RickRahim" jammed for 82,000 on the button. "Gohednpopoff" called once it was their turn to do so.

"RickRahim": {a-Hearts}{8-Spades}
"Gohednpopoff": {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

An ace on the flop {6-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} put "RickRahim" even further ahead but the turn {2-Clubs} brought a sweat as "Gohednpopoff" picked up a backdoor flush draw. It didn't fill, however, as the river fell {2-Spades} and "RickRahim" secured the double.
