"Samanthawins" Bubbles

In Level 18 (30,000/60,000/7,500), "Samanthawins" was all in for their last 7,500 from the cutoff and "Cholie" isolated from the big blind.

"Cholie": {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
"Samanthawins": {10-Hearts}{4-Spades}

The {8-Spades}{j-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop paired both players but "Samanthawins" was still trailing. The {k-Hearts} turn didn't change a thing nor did the {a-Hearts} river and "Samanthawins" was eliminated on the money bubble.

"ZenRead" Eliminated by Himpele

In Level 17 (25,000/50,000/6,200), "ZenRead" limped in from under the gun and Don "dhimp20" Himpele raised to 122,000 from the button.

Action was on "ZenRead" who three-bet all in for 306,932 from the big blind and only Himpele called.

"ZenRead": {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Don "dhimp20" Himpele: {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

Himpele was ahead and connected with the {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Spades} flop.

The {7-Clubs} turn left "ZenRead" drawing to either a king or a queen but the {9-Diamonds} completed the board on the river and ended their tournament.

Hill Doubles With Ace High

In Level 14 (16,000/32,000/4,000), action folded to Christopher "Chalmisi6" Hill who raised all for 396,500 from the cutoff and "redraider" called from the small blind.

"redraider": {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Christopher "Chalmisi6" Hill: {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Hill held the better and but had a sweat after the {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop gave his opponent an open-ended straight draw.

Luckily for Hill, both the {5-Diamonds} turn and {6-Spades} river were bricks securing his double-up.
