Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Tandi Stevens moved all in for 12,000 in early position on a flop of 10♠4♥6♠ and Kim Barnett reshoved in middle position. "There's too much money in there," Mark Lafata said as he also called for his last 25,000 in the cutoff.
Tandi Stevens: Q♣Q♠ 
Mark Lafata: J♠10♣
Kim Barnett: A♣A♥
Barnett had both players crushed with his aces, and neither Stevens nor Lafata could improve on the 2♥ turn or 3♦ river as Barnett earned the double knockout.
"Back-to-back," Barnett said.

Sarah Renko moved in her last 20,000 from the big blind on a flop of 10♣10♥9♠ and Kim Barnett called in early position.
Sarah Renko: A♠9♥
Kim Barnett: A♣10♦
Barnett had Renko drawing thin with his trips, and the board ran out K♥2♦ as Renko quickly headed off to the registration desk for a fresh starting stack.
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
After Dale Whiteside limped in from under the gun, Mark Lafata raised to 4,600 in the small blind and Josh Hatfield called in the big blind, as did Whiteside.
All three players checked the J♠7♦5♥ flop. Lafata then moved all in for 22,800 on the 10♦ turn, Hatfield called, while Whiteside got out of the way.
Lafata showed A♦A♥, but Hatfield had turned two pair with J♥10♠. The river, though, brought the 7♥ to give Lafata aces and sevens, and he earned the double up.

Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Bradley Stevens raised to 2,200 in middle position, the cutoff three-bet to 8,700, and Stevens called.
The flop came A♥K♦10♣ and the cutoff continued for 5,000. Stevens then moved all in, and his opponent called for 22,000.
All-In Player: A♣J♦
Bradley Stevens: 10♥10♠
The at-risk player showed top pair and a straight draw, while Stevens had flopped a set to take the lead. The J♣ turn gave his opponent more outs with two pair, but he missed the 9♠ river as Stevens held on to earn the knockout.
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Isaac Blackford raised to 2,000 in middle position, Tom Fehr three-bet to 6,500 in the hijack, and Blackford called. Fehr then moved all in for 16,700 on the J♣10♠8♥ flop, and Blackford quickly called.
Tom Fehr: Q♣Q♠
Isaac Blackford: K♥J♥
Fehr was ahead with his queens, while Blackford had top pair. Blackford also picked up a flush draw on the 7♥ turn, but Fehr held on through the 7♦ riiver to earn the double up.
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Around 30,000 was already in the middle as Toran Tate and Christina Davenport went to the turn on a board of Q♥Q♠6♣Q♣. Davenport then bet 20,000 from the cutoff, and Tate called under the gun.
Davenport bet another 20,000 on the K♦ river, and Tate moved all in for 27,000. Davenport snap-called and turned over K♠K♣ for a full house, but Tate had quads with A♥Q♦ to earn the double up.
"Look at this. Quads against kings full," tablemate Michael Varnell said.
"That's one to write up," Rodney Spriggs added.
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Ira Lampley and Michael Phillips went to a flop of K♦10♦4♣ where Phillips bet 5,000 from the cutoff. Lampley then raised to 30,000 in the small blind, and Phillips called.
Lampley moved all in for 14,500 on the 7♥ turn, and Phillips called with A♥A♠. Lampley, though, had flopped a set with 4♠4♦, and he held on through the 5♥ river to earn the massive double up.
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
A player under the gun raised to 1,600 and received four callers, including Sarah Renko on the button.
All five players checked the K♥J♠7♥ flop. The under-the-gun player then bet 2,500 on the 8♦ turn, and only Renko called.
The river was the 7♠ and the under-the-gun player bet 5,000. Renko quickly called with K♠10♠, and her opponent mucked A♠10♦.
