Tyler Boyer

Level 27 : Blinds 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

Daniel Lowery opened the action with a raise to 300,000, which was called by Colin Arnold in the cutoff. It folded to Jeffrey Copeland in the big blind and he three-bet all in for his stack of 2,900,000. Lowery got out of the way, and after a quick thought, Arnold tossed in a chip to put himself at risk.

Colin Arnold: 9♥9♦ All in
Jeffrey Copeland: A♥Q♥

It was a massive flip for Arnold's tournament life, and majority of Copeland's stack. The board ran out 10♥Q♠7♠2♣Q♣ giving Copeland trip queens, eliminating Arnold as Copeland takes over the chip lead.

Level 27 : Blinds 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

Connor Hayward opened the action from the hijack with a raise to 965,000, and when it folded to Justin Dreiling in the small blind, he three-bet all in for his stack of 2,300,000. The big blind gave it some thought before folding, leaving the players heads up with Hayward at risk.

Connor Hayward: 10♥10♦ All in
Justin Dreiling: 6♠6♣

Hayward had the bigger pocket pair, and once the board ran out 5♠3♠3♦9♥4♣ his pocket tens were still best, giving him a double up.

Level 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Action was picked up with Todd Tucker all in for 520,000, and Justin Dreiling putting him at risk.

Todd Tucker: A♥2♥ All in
Justin Dreiling: 7♠7♦

Tucker would need to improve past the pocket sevens of Dreiling, and the K♥2♣7♥ flop gave Dreiling a set, but Tucker picked up a flush draw. The turn 8♥ on the turn brought that flush right in, and the J♣ on the river kept him in front, giving him the double up.
