Tucker Doubles Through Traber
Level 25
: Blinds 50,000/75,000, 75,000 ante
On a heads-up turn of 9♠A♦10♥Q♠, the pot had around 1,100,000 in it when James Traber moved all in after a check from Todd Tucker.
Tucker then went into the tank for a good while before he made the call to put himself at risk and the cards were tabled.
Todd Tucker: 9♣10♣
James Traber: A♠2♠
"Come on, spade!" Traber shouted, but the river was the brick J♣ for Tucker to take down the big pot with his flopped two pair.

Set Over Set for Ellis
Level 25
: Blinds 50,000/75,000, 75,000 ante
Duster Ellis moved all in preflop for 1,200,000 and was called by Todd Tucker to put him at risk.
Duster Ellis: A♠A♣
Todd Tucker: 9♠9♦
Ellis's heart sank as a nine appeared in the window, but an ace followed right behind it on the 9♣A♥K♣ flop to give both players a set. Only a nine could win it for Tucker, but the runout of 7♥6♣ failed to do so and the pot was awarded to Ellis for the double.
