Adam Lamers

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

David Coleman raised to 40,000 in the hijack and was called by Jeremy Becker and Jason Klapman in the blinds. The flop fell 10♦3♣2♦ and the action checked to Coleman who continued for 30,000. Becker called and Klapman stepped aside.

The turn was the J♠ and Becker check-called another bet of 100,000 from Coleman. The 6♣ completed the board and both players tapped the table. Becker rolled over A♠10♠ for a pair of tens and Coleman conceded the pot.

Connor Rash opened to 35,000 on the button and Sean Winter three-bet to 165,000 out of the big blind. Rash called and they went heads-up to a flop of 5♠4♠3♠. Winter continued with a bet of 45,000 and Rash called.

The turn brought the J♠ and Winter check-called a bet of 110,000 from Rash. The 7♠ on the river put a flush on the board and both players tapped the table. Winter tabled A♥Q♥ to play the board and Rash did the same with his 8♣7♣. Neither player had anything until the river but both were able to claim half of the pot.

Level 13 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Michael Brinkenhoff started things off with a raise from the hijack and John Hennigan reraised on the button. The action was back on Brinkenhoff who four-bet shoved all in for 535,000 and Hennigan snapped him off.

Michael Brinkenhoff: A♠K♥ All in
John Hennigan: Q♠Q♦

It was a classic coin flip and the flop of K♣7♥7♣ favored Brinkenhoff with a pair of kings. The 9♦ and 6♠ runout changed nothing and Brinkenhoff scored a double up.

Next door, Brandon Wilson and John Andress were both sent to the rail in back-to-back hands.

Level 12 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Jeremy Becker was just seen raking in a pot after scoring a big double up through RJ Sullivan on his right. Becker held two black aces and Sullivan's cards were already in the muck on a queen-high board.

"It's the table that just keeps on giving to you," Drake Kemper said to Becker.

"What do you mean? I just lost a huge flip," Becker replied. "But I didn't give up. I didn't quit. I didn't moan."

Level 12 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Darren Elias raised to 25,000 in the cutoff and John Hennigan three-bet to 62,000 on the button. Cary Katz four-bet shoved all in for 110,000 in the small blind which got Elias to fold but Hennigan quickly called.

Cary Katz: A♣Q♥ All in
John Hennigan: A♠A♦

The flop came J♦10♠6♥ and Katz pointed out that he picked up four outs with a straight draw. The 3♣ on the turn and the 8♥ on the river did not help him as Hennigan was awarded the pot.

"I tried to manifest it," Katz said. "I manifested my exit. Someone eat my steak when it comes."
