Allen Holds With Tens

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Andre Allen
Andre Allen

Andre Allen had a raise to 7,500 in front of him in the cutoff and was considering the all-in wager of an opponent in the big blind. It was 35,700 total, and Allen counted out the chips, thought about a minute, and slid them in. His opponent showed {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}.

"I thought we were racing," he said, flipping over {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}.

The board ran out {6-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{j-Clubs}, safe for Allen.

Tepen Wins a Race

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Ryan Tepen
Ryan Tepen

We found Ryan Tepen calling the all in of a player under the gun who jammed around 20,000 in. Tepen held {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts} and was racing against {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}. The sweat lasted just four cards as a {k-Spades}{j-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{8-Clubs} board gave Tepen kings full.

Johnson Sent Packing

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Aaron Johnson got what looked like his last 12,000 or so in from late position with {5-}{5-} and ran into a player holding {a-}{a-} in the blinds. No five arrived, and Johnson headed for the doors.

Topping Off

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

It's Brian Topp who has surged into a chip lead with a mountain totaling well over 200,000. He was the player who busted Ryan Phan earlier, and he just showed down {k-}{10-} on a board of {10-}{8-}{a-}{8-}{10-} to rake in another huge pot.

Fink Triples, Busts Kerstetter

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Jamie Kerstetter
Jamie Kerstetter

We found three players all in at Table 2, with Dash Saenz covering Jamie Kerstetter and Mark Fink, who got all in from the big blind after Saenz opened late and Kerstetter jammed on the button.

Saenz: {5-}{5-}
Kerstetter: {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Fink: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The flop was {2-}{6-}{j-}, keeping Saenz best, but a queen on the turn send the pot to Fink after a brick river came. Kerstetter had about 15,000, slightly less than Fink's 17,400, so he collected he stack and a double from Saenz.

Ryan Phan said he busted the very first hand back from break. As he told it, he three-bet {q-}{q-} against a raise and a call, and the opener jammed. Phan called off 50,000 or so and was against {a-}{q-}. Though the flop was clean for him, his opponent hit an ace on the turn.
