Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Brent Slaubaugh raised to 6,000 in middle position and Spike Smith called on the button.
Both players checked the 7♦6♠K♥ flop. Slaubaugh then bet 7,000 on the Q♦ turn, and Smith called.
Slaubaugh checked the A♥ river, and Smith bet 7,500. Slaubaugh called with A♠Q♣ for two pair, and Smith mucked A♦7♠.
Arlie Brandvold, the three-time Roughrider Poker Tour Player of the Year, just joined this table.

Dave Ouellette moved all in for 8,500 in middle position, Joshua Reichard reshoved in the small blind, and the rest of the table got out of the way.
Dave Ouellette: A♣9♦ 
Joshua Reichard: A♠7♣
Ouellette had Reichard dominated, and the board ran out K♥J♠8♦4♠K♠. It took a moment for the table to figure out if Ouellette's nine continued to play, and the pot was eventually pushed over to him.

: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Stephen Berger bet 6,000 from early position on a flop of 6♠Q♣6♥ and an opponent in the big blind called.
Berger bet another 5,500 on the Q♣ turn, his opponent moved all in for 15,500, and Berger snap-called. The at-risk player showed Q♥10♣ for a full house, but Berger had 6♦6♣ for quads.
"You have quad sixes, really? A little bit of overkill," the big blind said as the 2♥ completed the board on the river to give Berger the knockout.
"It wasn't overkill. I needed every bit of it," Berger added.

Spike Smith bet 6,000 from the small blind on a board of 9♦Q♦J♣Q♥ and Seth Thomsen called on the button.
The river was the 3♦ and Smith bet another 11,000. Thomsen again called, and Smith showed K♦J♥ for two pair. Thomsen, though, had A♥J♠ and won the pot with his ace-kicker.
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
With around 30,000 in the pot on a flop of Q♠10♦6♠, a player in the cutoff moved all in for 25,000, Santiago Gimenez reshoved in early position, and the rest of the table got out of the way.
All-In Player: A♣K♦
Santiago Gimenez: 10♠10♣
The at-risk player had a straight draw to go with his overcards, but he missed the 4♦ turn and 6♦ river as Gimenez held on with his tens to send his opponent to the rail.
Joshua Reichard joined the field during the break.

Heads-up on a flop of A♥9♠10♠, Ralph Kingan bet 12,000 from the cutoff, Matthew Rodriguez moved all in for 16,000 on the button, and Kingan called.
Matthew Rodriguez: 10♣10♦
Ralph Kingan: 9♦9♣
Rodriguez was on the right side of the set-over-set cooler, and the 7♠ turn and 3♥ river secured his double up.
"That's the second time I had set-over-set today. That's crazy," Rodriguez said.
