A Couple of Bust Outs
Level 7
: 125/250, 30 ante
Hand #1: "SlaynEryDay" jammed in early position for 3,351 and was called by "Weis OneSev" in the hijack.
"SlaynEryDay": 
"Weis OneSev": 
The two found themselves in a coin flip situation but the flop 
drastically changed the landscape, giving "Weis OneSev" trips to pull way out in front. The turn 
gave "Weis OneSev" a full house, leaving "SlaynEryDay" drawing dead to the river to leave "SlaynEryDay" with no chips for just a moment before rebuying and receiving a fresh stack of chips.
Hand #2
Moments later on another table, "donnysack" opened to 562 in middle position and saw "que suerte" three-bet all in for 3,994. "S_R732" called in the big blind and "donnysack" folded.
"que suerte": 
"S_R732": 
"que suerte" found themselves in bad shape but hope came on the flop 
. However, nothing further came of it as the turn 
and river 
completed the runout to leave "S_R732's" aces best and score them the knockout.

Big Blind Special for "fengshui428"
Level 6
: 100/200, 25 ante
"XhustlerX420" limped in from early position and "The1TrueHero" limped behind in middle position. "ondemand4488" was in the cutoff and raised the minimum required amount to 400. "fengshui428" called in the big blind and both limpers did as well, taking action four ways to the streets.
With 1,900 in the middle, the flop came 
and action checked to "ondemand4488," who made a continuation-bet of 3,000. "fengshui428" check-raised to 6,000, prompting two folds before "ondemand4488" called.
"fengshui428" then had 1,090 left and proceeded to commit it on the turn 
. "ondemand4488" called and hands were shown.
"fengshui428":
"ondemand4488": 
"fengshui428" found themselves unable to be eliminated with their two pair needing to fade nothing more than a straight coming on board to chop. The river was safe and furthermore improved them to a full house, scoring a double and finding new life to go along with it.
