Burnett's Big Calls Wins

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Ben Burnett
Ben Burnett

We found Chris Neal all in for 48,600 before the flop out of the small blind. A player had opened for 2,600 under the gun and was already in the muck, but a caller in the cutoff, Ben Burnett, was pondering. After a few minutes, he called, and the player on the button folded.

Neal: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Burnett: {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

Neal got out of his seat as if he knew what was coming, and sure enough it was Burnett pumping his fist on the {8-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop, which gave him a flush. Things weren't over though, as Neal had a higher flush draw, but he didn't get there on the {5-Hearts} turn or {4-Diamonds} river.

Ryan Tepen raised from the small blind and then called the 18,400 shove of Victor Haynes in the big.

Tepen: {a-}{10-}
Haynes: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

Tepen was in the worst-case scenario against the shorter stack, and the board ran out {8-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{9-Clubs}.

Tang Wins Race for Backdoor

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Mike Tang
Mike Tang

A player opened for 2,200 under the gun and received two calls. Mike Tang was in the small blind, and he upped the stakes to 7,000. The opener moved all in, folding out the middle players, and Tang called.

Tang: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Under the gun: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

Both players flopped backdoor flush possibilities on the {6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{j-Clubs}. It was a {10-Diamonds} on the turn, meaning Tang now had a freeroll to a diamond. He got there on the {5-Diamonds} river card.

Players are on break for 15 minutes.

Monster Draw for a Monster Pot

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Jeremiah Marsh
Jeremiah Marsh

Jeremiah Marsh opened to 2,100 on the button, and the big blind three-bet to 6,500. Marsh made the call, and the two took in a {q-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} flop.

"How much are you playing?" the big blind asked.

"About the same as you," said Marsh.

The big blind bet 11,000, and Marsh announced all in right away. Just as quickly, he was called.

Marsh: {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Big blind: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

Marsh had a massive draw, though the big blind did have a pair of blockers in his hand. Nonetheless, an {8-Hearts} gave Marsh a straight, and an {a-Hearts} river wasn't enough improvement to take the pot. The dealer counted down stacks, and Marsh had 46,675, leaving the big blind with just a few green T25 chips remaining.

Another Preflop Win for Hebda

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Joe Hebda
Joe Hebda

Just before the end of the last level, Joe Hebda shoved all in for his last 8,325 and was called by the small blind.

Hebda: {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
Small blind: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

Hebda needed a three, and he found one on the {2-Spades}{3-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop. A {7-Diamonds} turn and {a-Diamonds} river meant he doubled up past the starting stack.
