Wallmuth Fills Up to Double Up

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

With 11,500 in the middle and a board reading {5-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} Chris Wallmuth moved all in for 8,000 from the big blind. The player next to act called and the last player in middle position folded.

Wallmuth: {5-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
Opponent: {6-Diamonds}{7-Spades}

Wallmuth's opponent had turned a straight which left him only four outs heading into the river. The river was one of those four outs {5-Spades}. Wallmuth improved to a full house and got the double up.

Podaima Shoves for the Win

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

There were three limps before it got around to Riley Kielich in his big blind, and he bumped it up to 5,200 to go. There was a caller in early position as well as Mel Podaima from the cutoff.

When the flop came {2-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{6-Spades} Kielich led out for 6,000 and that was enough to get the early caller out, but Podaima came over top to 12,000. Kielich called behind and then checked the {3-Spades} turn card. Podaima shoved for 22,500, and after a few seconds in the tank, Kielich released his hand to the muck.
