Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

On a heads-up completed board of 6♠3♣4♠10♠6♥, there were around 14,500 chips in the middle when the first player bet out 12,000. The action was then on Duster Ellis who thought for a few seconds before he announced a raise to 25,000.

His opponent quickly surrendered his hand to award the pot to Ellis to increase his stack to 80,000.

Episcopo Scoops Another

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

On a heads-up completed board of 7♦9♥3♥2♠K♥, there was around 20,000 in the middle when Michael Episcopo bet 20,000 after a check from Jon Swift.

Swift then went deep into the tank, checking and re-checking his cards, torn between his decision. He eventually elected to make the fold, showing A♥A♦, which got some looks from the table but Episcopo showed no rection as he raked in the pot.
