Zoe Chua Continues to Dominate

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Zoe Chua opened to 6,500 from early position and got called by both of the blinds. The flop came {7-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{j-Hearts} and Chua bet 9,500 when the action was checked to him. Both players called.

The player in the small blind led out on the {7-Hearts} turn card for his whole stack of 40,500. The player in the big blind folded and Chua made the call.

Chua: {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Opponent: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

Chua had to dodge a nine or seven on the river to secure the knockout, and he did just that when the {k-Clubs} completed the board.

Rinn Wins it on the Flop

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Charlie Rinn was first into the pot with a limp from the cutoff, and both blinds came along to see a flop of {4-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}. Action checked to Rinn and he tossed in a bet of 4,000. The small blind folded quickly, but it took the big blind significantly longer to come to the same decision.

Meanwhile, in earlier action, Calvin Knifpel lost his stack from the same table, and one table over Leor Wasserman was seen leaving an empty seat.

Shiska Busts One

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

After Dave Shiska raised from under the gun, the player on the button shoved all in for 37,500. It folded back to Shiska and after a few seconds of thought he called behind.

It was a near-classic race as Shiska's {a-}{k-} was a slight dog to the pocket jacks of his opponent, but with an ace in the window, and no jack on the {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} board, Shiska cracked the 100k mark.

Springman Stays Alive

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Action folded around to the small blind who min-raised to 8,000. Rory Springman was in the big blind and moved all in for 22,500. The small blind called and the players turned their cards over.

Springman: {k-Spades}{7-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

The flop gave Springman a gut shot {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and the turn put him into the lead {k-Diamonds}. The {7-Clubs} on the river gave Springman two pair and the double up.

Gurjod Binks the Turn

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Nav Gurjod went all in for his last 6,500 from the hijack, the player on the button called and the small blind put in a raise to 24,000. Everyone left with action folded which left Gurjod and the small blind heads up.

Gurjod: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Gurjod was able to hit one of his three outs as the board completed {q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{10-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. Gurjod increased his stack from 6,500 to 29,500.

Tong Busts One More as The Bubble Approaches

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

A player in middle position went all in for 18,500. The action got around to Alex Tong in the big blind who made the call after already having 5,000 committed.

Tong: {q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Opponent: {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The flop had Tong drawing even more slim {4-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}. But when the board completed {6-Hearts}{q-Spades} he made top pair and eliminated his opponent.
