Haskett Shows Jacks

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Zane Williams opened to 20,000 from early position and was called by Melvin Haskett in the cutoff and the player in the big blind.

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{6-Clubs} and the big blind led out for 12,000. Williams raised to 32,000 and Haskett called cold. The big blind also called and the turn brought the {7-Hearts}. This time both players checked to Haskett, who announced he was all in for a bit under 300,000.

Both Haskett's opponents folded and Huskett tabled {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for an overpair as he scooped the pot.

Kelley Busts a Shorty as Bubble Looms

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The player under-the-gun shoved for his last 52,000 and action folded to Tyler Kelley in the big blind, who agonized a bit before calling to put his opponent at risk.

Under-the-gun: {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Tyler Kelley: {k-Diamonds}{7-Spades}

The {k-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs} runout left Kelley with two pair, good for the knockout as we draw closer to the bubble.

Parrish and Perkins Burst The Bubble in Tandem

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Charles Parrish had one player all-in preflop one table and Thomas Perkins had another player all-in preflop on another.

Parish held {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} against his opponent's {a-Spades}{k-Spades} and the board ran out {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} — leaving Parrish best with two pair.

Meanwhile, Perkins held {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} against his all-in opponent's {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. The {8-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds} runout kept Perkins' ace-high best.

Since both players were knocked out on different tables, they will split the $500 min-cash.

Parrish Doubles

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

On a flop of {9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}, the player in the hijack checked to Charles Parrish on the button, who bet 55,000. His opponent then announced he was all-in and Parrish called off the rest of his stack, which was about 200,000.

Hijack: {q-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Charles Parrish: {k-Spades}{j-Clubs}

Parish was ahead with a pair of jacks against the open-ended straight draw of his opponent. The {10-Diamonds} turn and {q-Diamonds} river improved the hijack to two pair but also improved Parrish to a superior straight and he doubled through.
