Klein Takes From Roberts

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Austin Roberts raised to 50,000 from the cutoff, and Loren Klein called in the big blind.

Klein checked the {7-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop over to Roberts, who bet 60,000. Klein called.

On the {3-Hearts} turn, Klein checked again, and Roberts bet 140,000. Klein called again.

Both players checked the {4-Hearts} river, and Klein tabled {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. Roberts mucked.

Epstein's Due For a Double

Level 22 : 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Christopher Gallagher raised to 60,000 from UTG+1, then snapped off a three-bet shove for 580,000 from Alex Epstein in the big blind.

Gallagher: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Epstein: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

"I might be due for one," Epstein said, and lo and behold, the {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{10-Spades} flop delivered a set for Epstein. No queen fell on the {a-Diamonds} turn or {7-Clubs} river, and Epstein doubled up.

Gallagher Returns the Favor, Doubles Through Epstein

Level 22 : 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Alex Epstein raised to 60,000 from the cutoff, then called a three-bet shove for 280,000 from Christopher Gallagher in the small blind.

Epstein: {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Gallagher: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Gallagher spiked an ace on the {a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} flop and never looked back on the {2-Spades} turn or {k-Diamonds} river to double.

Gallagher Doubles Again

Level 22 : 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Austin Roberts raised to 60,000 from the cutoff, and Christopher Gallagher three-bet to 175,000 in the big blind. Roberts four-bet shoved to put Gallagher at risk for his last 640,000, and Gallagher didn't look thriller, but made the call.

Roberts: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Gallagher: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}

"Nice hand, Austin," Gallagher said upon seeing the hands.

The crowd around the table got loud when the {8-Spades}{7-Clubs}{10-Clubs} flop gave Roberts an open-ender. He binked the {j-Clubs} turn for his straight, but Roberts was still live with a set.

"Fade it!" Gallagher said, and he did just that on the {3-Spades} river to double.

Julio Uribe raised to 65,000 from the lojack, and Austin Roberts called in the cutoff. Alex Epstein three-bet shoved for 425,000 on the button, and after Uriber folded, Roberts snapped him off.

Roberts: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Epstein: {a-Clubs}{8-Spades}

Roberts and his tens held on a {3-Hearts}{j-Spades}{3-Clubs}{q-Spades}{5-Diamonds} board, and Epstein falls two spots short of the final table.
