Nick Becker

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Action picked up on the turn with a sizable pot brewing between Glen Goldsmith in middle position and William Pengelly in the cutoff.

With just over 56,000 in the middle and the board reading Q♥5♣A♣6♣, Goldsmith checked and Pengelly moved all in for 37,500 to put himself at risk. Goldsmith made the call.

William Pengelly: Q♣Q♥ All in
Glen Goldsmith: A♥8♣

The river landed the 6♦ and Pengelly improved to a full house, queens full of sixes, to earn the big double up.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Action went six-ways to a monotone flop of 5♥Q♥2♥ with over 7,000 in the middle where everyone checked.

The turn landed the J♠ and it checked to Trung Pham in late position, who bet 2,000. Only the under-the-gun player continued to the Q♠ river where both players checked.

"I have four-high," said under the gun, as Pham tabled J♥8♦ for two pair, queens and jacks to claim the pot.
