Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Danielle Renaud moved all in for 55,000 from the small blind and an opponent on the button put her at risk.

Danielle Renaud: K♣10♦ All in
Opponent: J♠J♣

Renaud was looking for a king to survive against her opponent's jacks as the board came 4♥Q♣7♣2♥. Just as she was about to get out of her seat, Renaud spiked the K♥ on the river to double.

"She did it again," a tablemate said as Renaud held her cards aloft to show the rest of the room before collecting the pot.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Rick Lutt bet 4,000 from the big blind on a flop of 4♥2♣2♦ and an under-the-gun player raised to 10,000. Ross Jones called in early position, Todd Hyder called in the small blind, while Lutt got out of the way.

All three players checked the 5♦ turn. The under-the-gun player then bet 15,000 on the J♥ river, but this time Jones moved all in for 27,000. Hyder folded, while the under-the-gun player called.

Jones showed A♥J♦ for a rivered two pair. "I should've bet," his opponent lamented as he tossed 8♣8♠ into the muck.

"That's how you comeback, baby," Jones said as he doubled up.

At the same table, Jeremy Hendricks has built a stack of around 250,000. "He's the one who stole my chips. Got lucky on the river," Jones said.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

In a battle between the blinds, Jared Grayson led out for 7,000 on a flop of 2♦Q♣8♦ and the big blind moved all in for 37,000. Grayson called to put him at risk.

All-In Player: Q♥J♣ All in
Jared Grayson: K♣Q♣

Both players flopped top pair, while Grayson was ahead with his king-kicker. The K♠ turn improved Grayson to two pair, while the J♠ river wasn't enough for the at-risk player to avoid elimination.

"Just to rub it in a little," Grayson said as he took down the pot.
