Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Nick Barksdale opened to 80,000 from the cutoff before Nick Hall jammed for 470,000 from the small blind. In the big blind, Walt Lustgraaf jammed for 490,000 and Barksdale snapped it off to put both players at risk.

Nick Hall: 5♠5♦ All in
Walt Lustgraaf: A♠A♦
Nick Barksdale: J♠J♦

Lustgraaf was in great shape on the 8♥6♥4♥ flop until the J♥ turn gave Barksdale top set and was primed for a double knockout. However, the river was the 3♥ and the three players chopped the pot.

Level 21 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Ryan Phan opened from the hijack and Nick Hall defended his big blind.

The Q♥J♦4♦ flop checked through to the 4♠ turn which saw Hall lead for 85,000 and Phan called.

Hall led again for 160,000 on the Q♠ river before Phan cut out a raise to 450,000. Hall would think over his decision for almost two minutes before he elected to fold, prompting Phan to table 5♠5♥ as his bluff got through.
