Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
There was plenty of preflop action at table 19, which left Emily Sun all in and at risk against Arnaldo Gordon.
Emily Sun: A♣7♣ 
Arnaldo Gordon: 9♥9♦
The Q♦J♣10♦ flop left Gordon in front, improving to a straight on the 8♣ turn while Sun added flush possibilities to her Broadway draw.
The 7♥ river was a blank, leaving Gordon ahead and sending Sun to the rail.

Michael Linster raised to 2,000 on the button before Rabih Vargas moved all in from the small blind. Zachary Epstein then committed his stack in the big blind, and Linster got out of the way.
Zachary Epstein: A♠A♦ [alliin]
Rabih Vargas: A♥Q♠
Epstein watched his pocket aces hold through the 2♥4♣10♦K♣8♣ board to double up. That left Vargas with less than 4,000 chips, which were gone shortly after.
