Hand #1: In Level 10 with blinds of 1,200/2,400 and an ante of 300, Eric "alwaysliquid" Vanauken open-limped in the hijack and Anthony "flawlessbinkage" Maio jammed for 42,850 on the button. Action folded back to Vanauken and he called for almost all of his stack, giving him the chance at a bounty in addition to the pot.

Hand #2: Moments later on an adjacent table, Derek "pompii" Sudell got all in for just a bit under 20,000 preflop in the big blind, receiving action from "xxx6395200" in the cutoff.

Derek "pompii" Sudell:
