Autenreith Spikes King; Helton Heads Out

Kirk Brown

Level 15 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

After some preflop back-and-forth, all the chips found their way into the middle between Leslie Autenreith and Eric Helton, who covered.

Leslie Autenreith: A♣K♦
Eric Helton: Q♦Q♣

Helton started off ahead in the most classic of flips, but the flop of 3♦K♠8♣ was not what he wanted to see as Autenreith hit her king. The runout of 2♣3♥ was no help to Helton and the pot was hipped over to Autenreith for a double-up.

Unfortunately for Helton, he was left short and found the rail two hands later

Douglas Eliminates Fortuno to Increase Lead

Kirk Brown

Level 15 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On a heads-up flop of 9♦2♥K♥, there was already around 90,000 in the middle when Robert Fortuno moved all in for 102,000. The action was then on chip leader Kenneth Douglas who thought for a few seconds before he decided to make the call to put Fortuno at risk.

Robert Fortuno: A♠9♠
Kenneth Douglas: K♠10♥

Fortuno needed some help to stay alive, but the runout of 2♠K♣ only improved Douglas to trips and he was sent to the payout desk.

Kasawdish Finds a Queen to Survive

Kirk Brown

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

On a heads-up board of Q♦J♦3♥J♥, there was a sizeable pot brewing when Robert Kasawdish moved all in and Curt Kohlberg snap-called to put him at risk.

Kasawdish flipped over Q♥7♠ for queens and jacks but Kohlberg had him crushed with A♣J♠ for trip jacks. Kasawdish was gathering his things and standing up but quickly sat back down when the Q♠ smacked on the river to give him the superior full house, which got a reaction from the table.

Kohlberg handled it quite well as a large chunk of his chips were shipped over to Kasawdish.

Robert Kasawdish	380,000 300,000	300,000

England Falls to Douglas

Kirk Brown

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The complete action was missed on the hand, but Kyna England moved all in preflop with AxQx and was called by Kenneth Douglas with KxKx to put her at risk.

The board did not provide any help to England and her stack of around 265,000 was shipped over to Douglas to further pad his chip lead while she hit the rail.

Vu's Tens Run into Margers' Kings

Kirk Brown

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

After an open from Tavish Margers to 27,000, Timothy Vu three-bet to 107,000 and action folded back to Margers, who responded by moving all in.

Vu then went into the tank for a bit as he stared at his hand, unsure of what to do. After twenty seconds of this, he finally set a stack of chips into the middle to signify a call, putting himself at risk.

Timothy Vu: 10♦10♠
Tavish Margers: K♥K♠

Vu would need a lot of help to stay alive, but the flop of K♣J♥2♣ left him drawing slim as Margers made top set. The turn 3♠ left him drawing dead and the river Q♣ was just ceremonial as Vu said farewell to the table and headed to the exit.
