"Maxxx72alba" The First To Cross 100k Mark

Alexander "AlexKP" Petersen opened with a min-raise to 600 and was re-raised by "BADEXTASY" to 2,100 on the button. "Maxxx72alba" called from the big blind, as did Petersen, to see a {6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop. It was checked to "BADEXTASY" who bet 3,780. Only "Maxxx72alba" called to see the {7-Clubs} turn.

Another check to "BADEXTASY" led to a bet of 8,370. "Maxxx72alba" min-raised, resulting in "BADEXTASY" shoving for 26,981. "Maxxx72alba" called with {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and had "BADEXTASY's" {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} drawing dead. The {Q-Clubs} river card improved "BADEXTASY" to a meaningless set before being eliminated.

Reynolds Doubles

After "RuiNF" min-raised on the button, William "Altrum Altus" Reynolds shoved for 9,601 from the small blind.

"RuiNF" called with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}, racing with the {7-Spades}{7-Clubs} of Reynolds. The board rolled out {9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{9-Hearts} to get Reynolds back neat the starting stack.

Ramdin Doubles

Team PokerStars Pro (USA) Victor Ramdin
Team PokerStars Pro (USA) Victor Ramdin

Team PokerStars Pro Victor Ramdin had been nursing a short stack but recently received a much-needed double. It happened when "bindernutnut" opened for 550, "fly44" called, and "huge.fishh" three-bet to 1,745. Ramdin, who was in the big blind, then moved all in for 7,103. Only huge.fishh made the call and the cards were turned up:

Showdown
Ramdin: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
huge.fishh: {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

Ramdin was in great shape to double, and his ace-kicker came into play on the {2-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop. Unfortunately for Ramdin, the {K-Spades} spiked on the turn to give huge.fishh two pair and the lead. Ramdin needed an ace on the river to stay alive, and that is exactly what happened as the {A-Spades} plopped down! Ramdin hit his three-outer and doubled to over 15K.

Palovic Busts After Running Kings Into Aces

"OrangeBud11" opened for 750 only to have Team PokerStars Pro (Slovakia) Dag Palovic three-bet to 2,000. Tim "Calvin32" Sullivan then woke up with a four-bet to 6,000 from the small blind, OrangeBud11 got out of the way, and Palovic called off his remaining 3,812

Showdown
Palovic: {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}
Sullivan: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}

Palovic had been nursing a short stack and just happened to run the second best starting hand into the best. It was a bit of a cooler, and Palovic could not get lucky as the board ran out an uneventful {8-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}.
