Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Jon Bertelsman opened to 4,000 in middle position and picked up three callers along the way. The flop came 9♥7♣5♦ and Bertelsman continued with a bet of 10,000. Jason Procell announced all in on the button and Bertelsman called off his stack of 47,000.

Jon Bertelsman: J♠J♥All in
Jason Procell: Q♥9♦

Procell flopped top pair but he was in trouble against Bertelsman's overpair. The 4♣ and 6♥ runout changed nothing and Bertelsman earned himself a double-up.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Edward Sebesta raised to 4,000 from under the gun and both Walter Lynch and Thai Ha called from the blinds. The flop came A♣8♣6♥ and Sebesta continued with a bet of 4,500. Both Lynch and Ha made the call.

The turn brought the K♥ and the action checked to Sebesta again who threw in a bet of 12,000. Lynch check-raised all in for around 60,000 which got Ha to quickly fold. Sebesta gave it some thought before eventually doing the same.

"One way or another, I was going to have at least 60k after this hand," Lynch said as he tabled his 9♥8♥. The registration cage is just around the corner in case he needs to make his way there momentarily.

Teddy Potts raised to 3,000 in early position and Vincent Robinson flat-called on his left. Sage Nutt three-bet to 13,500 in the cutoff and Potts just called. Robinson pushed all in for 21,500 and Nutt attempted to make it more. However, the door wasn't open to reraise so both he and Potts called to make it three ways to the flop.

The flop came 6♥5♦4♠ and both players checked to the J♦ on the turn. Potts checked again and Nutt threw in a bet of 25,000. Potts quickly folded and the remaining two hands were tabled.

Vincent Robinson: A♦8♦All in
Sage Nutt: J♠J♣

Nutt turned a set of jacks but Robinson was still drawing live with a straight and flush draw. The river was the Q♣ and Robinson was sent to the registration desk while Nutt collected the pot.

Level 7 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jason Torres raised to 3,000 and Shawn Behnk jammed all in for 24,500. The action folded back to Torres who went into the tank for a minute before finding the call.

Shawn Behnk: 4♠4♥All in
Jason Torres: J♣10♣

The flop came Q♣J♠8♣ and Torres picked up a pair along with a straight flush draw. Behnk was down to just a single out and the A♥, 6♠ runout was not going to help him.
