A player under the gun bet 3,500 on a flop of 10♦5♣7♦ and Sean Etheridge raised to 25,000 in the cutoff. Charles Campos then moved all in for 35,000 on the button. "That's very rude, Charlie," Etheridge told him. The under-the-gun player folded, while Etheridge called to put Campos at risk.

Charles Campos: 10♥6♠ All in
Sean Etheridge: K♦10♠

Both players had top pair, but Etheridge was ahead with his king-kicker. The rest of the board ran out J♦Q♠, and Etheridge earned another knockout as Campos was sent to the rail.

Charlie Townsend moved all in for 24,500 from the button on a flop of 5♦A♠2♥ and an opponent under the gun put him at risk.

Charlie Townsend: A♦2♠ All in
Opponent: A♠K♥

Townsend had flopped two pair to take the lead, and the rest of the board ran out 8♣10♣ to earn him the double up.

"Why couldn't the board pair? It would've been more fun," the under-the-gun player said as he handed over the chips.

Ellinghaus Gets Good Karma For Double Bustout

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Blake Ellinghaus had just paid for a coffee for table neighbor Mary Darnell as he and two opponents went to a flop of Q♦8♠6♦. "I'll just keep leeching off you," Darnell told him.

"You keep taking my chips, I'll keep buying you coffee," Ellinghaus replied as Darnell was sitting on a massive stack of around 150,000. Ellinghaus then bet 3,000 from the cutoff and the small blind moved all in for 25,000.

Another opponent in the hijack tried to call Ellinghaus' bet without realizing the small blind had moved all in. She was given the option of surrendering 3,000, but she eventually put in her last 15,000. Ellinghaus called to put both opponents at risk.

Hijack: K♣K♠ All in
Small blind: 9♦7♦ All in
Blake Ellinghaus: J♦8♦

The turn came the J♠ to give Ellinghaus the lead with two pair, while the 7♣ fell on the river and Ellinghaus sent both opponents to the rail.

"Put this in the book. I'm about to stack the champ," Sean Etheridge said as he three-bet to 4,500 in the hijack after Caleb Powell had opened to 1,100 in early position. Powell called, and they went heads-up to the 2♦7♦7♣ flop.

Both players checked through to the Q♣ turn. "Okay, it's boring now," Charles Campos said as he pretended to narrate the action. Powell checked over to Etheridge once again.

"Small, 4,000," Etheridge said as he put in a grey 5,000 chip, and Powell quickly folded. "Please have aces," Etheridge added as he flashed 7♥7♠ for flopped quads while taking in the pot.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

A player under the gun raised to 1,100 before Shannon Scalice three-bet to 3,200 in middle position. The small blind then moved all in for 20,000 and action folded back around to Scalice, who called to put her opponent at risk.

All-In Player: Q♣Q♥ All in
Shannon Scalice: A♣K♠

Scalice hit top pair on the K♥2♥6♥ flop to take the lead, and the rest of the 6♦7♦ board offered no help to her opponent as she earned the knockout.

Chris Conrad is also at this table, as is Kelly Slay. Slay's husband, Kelley, is sitting an adjacent table.
