Lee Arciero jammed for 149,000 from middle position, and Chad Garyet tanked for a bit before calling in the cutoff.

Chad Garyet: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

"Good call," Arciero told Garyet before the cards were tabled.

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Tony Lunsford
Tony Lunsford

Tony Lunsford limoped in the small blind, and Dan Kaplan checked back from the big blind.

Both players checked the {a-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop. Lunsford check-called a 25,000 bet from Kaplan on the {q-Spades} turn.

Lunsford led out for 40,000 on the {3-Hearts} river, Kaplan went all in, and Lunsford called. Lunsford's {a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} was no good, as Kaplan's {a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} two pair sent Lunsford to the rail.

Jason Somerville: {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}
Matt Stout: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Andy Milonakis
Andy Milonakis

Michael Hofer jammed for 6,600 in middle position, and action folded to Andy Milonakis in the small blind.

"I think I'm going to make a donkey call," Milonakis said, and a few moments later, he made the call.

Michael Hofer: {a-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Andy Milonakis: {k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

Milonakis hit an eight on the {q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop, and no ace came on the {9-Diamonds} turn or {q-Diamonds} river to earn Milonakis the pot and $100.

"Sorry about my donkeyness!" Milonakis told Hofer, who was grinning as he made his way back to the cashier to re-enter.
