Huge Double for Kritzer

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

From middle position, Matt Waxman raised to 35,000. Randy Kritzer reraised on the button to 105,000, and then Kevin Wan reraised to 245,000 out of the big blind. Waxman folded, and Kritzer quickly moved all in for 799,000. Wan called just as quickly, and a massive pot of over 1.6 million chips was born.

Wan had the best of it with the {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}. Kritzer had the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}.

Despite the lead going in, Wan fell behind on the {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop. The turn was the {4-Diamonds}, and the river was the {5-Hearts}. Kritzer won the pot with a set of queens, and Wan was crushed down to about 100,000 in chips.

Mercier Survives After Cooler

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Jason Mercier got himself in a three-way all in with {k-Spades}{k-Hearts} against the {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} of Renaud Desferet and the {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds} of Fabian Chauriye. The board ran out {9-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{4-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{a-Clubs}, giving the pot to Chauriye, who started the hand with 675,000. Desferet had just 275,000 and was eliminated, while Mercier was left with 111,000.

The PokerStars Team Pro called it off shortly thereafter when Ami Barer moved in on him from the small blind.

Barer: {q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Mercier: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

The ace-queen held and Mercier survived.

Flush for Lewis

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Toby Lewis and Thomas Petre just played a pot and Lewis may have missed some value when he checked the river.

The flop was {6-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and Lewis bet 40,000. Petre raised to 150,000 and Lewis called.

The turn was the {10-Hearts} and both players checked. The river was the {a-Diamonds} and Lewis checked again. After checking his cards, Petre elected to check as well.

Lewis showed {q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for a diamond flush and won the pot.

Runner-Runner Royal

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Paul Tedeschi
Paul Tedeschi

A huge hand on the live stream saw an elimination and a sick showdown before the break.

Paul Tedeschi opened to 36,000 in middle position and got calls from Phillip McAllister (button) and Fabian Chauriye (big blind). Action checked to the button on the {q-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, where McAllister bet 48,000. Both of his opponents called, and it went check-check to begin fourth street after the {j-Hearts} hit. McAllister fired again for 136,000 and Chauriye called. Tedeschi shoved all in for 388,000 more, and both McAllister and Chauriye called. On the {a-Hearts} river, Chauriye came out firing into the dry side pot with 300,000. McAllister wasted little time before announcing all in. After a five-minute tank, Chauriye folded.

Tedeschi showed {q-}{q-} for top set on the flop, but McAllister's hand was far bigger. He had gone runner-runner for a royal flush with the {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}, and Tedeschi headed for payouts.
