Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Bradley Miller opened the action to the tune of 3,500 from under the gun. The small and big blinds both called to create a three-handed pot.

The flop came K♣9♠3♦ before both blinds checked. Miller continued for 4,000. The small blind came along with a call, but the big blind got out with a fold.

It was checked to Miller on the 4♣ turn. Miller did not mess around and opted to go all-in for 23,500. This resulted in a quick fold from the small blind as Miller took down the pot.

The pot had grown to 26,500 on a board that read 2♣4♠5♣ when this hand was picked up.

Alex Russell checked from under the gun before the hijack opted to bet 6,000. The cutoff called, but Russell decided on a different path forward as he chose to check-raise all-in for 43,000.

The hijack gave it a brief consideration before he folded. The cutoff was in the tank for a minute before he also folded, awarding the pot to Russell without any further action.

Dunhill Verceles opened from middle position before Nova Baghdasarian three-bet to 7,500 from the hijack.

Verceles called and brought them to a flop of 10♠K♥7♣ before he checked. Baghdasarian checked back to bring the 10♦ turn.

Verceles checked again before Baghdasarian opted to bet 6,000. Verceles called.

The 9♠ river led to a jam from Verceles to put Baghdasarian to a decision for all his chips. Baghdasarian shrugged before he made the call to go to a showdown with Baghdasarian at risk for approximately 13,000.

Verceles showed K♦10♣ for a full house, as a disappointed Baghdasarian tabled K♠Q♠ for kings up to get eliminated.

Baghdasarian was seen rebuying shortly after the hand as he sat down on Day 1c with a fresh stack of 30,000.

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Eric Rabelas got it all-in for approximately 11,000 against Prakhar Jain to be at risk preflop.

Eric Rabelas: J♣9♣All in
Prakhar Jain: J♠J♥

Jain had Rabelas on the ropes as his pocket jacks had Rabelas' jack high in trouble.

The 10♥A♠9♥ flop gave Rabelas a sliver of hope as he paired his nine.

The 5♣ turn was of no use to Rabelas, and the 6♣ river sealed his fate as Jain scored the knockout.

Both players checked the 3♣ turn to bring the J♦ river. Klovanish resumed his betting with a wager of 24,000. His opponent did not think long before he folded to award the pot to Klovanish.
