Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Walker Miskelly got it all in preflop from the small blind for 23,500 against the under-the-gun Brian Tracy, who slightly covered, and the player in late position, who was the big stack.

Walker Miskelly: K♦Q♠ All in
Brian Tracy: Q♥Q♦ All in
Late position: 6♥6♠

The dealer put out a monotone flop of 7♥4♥8♥, with Tracy's pair of queens still in the lead. The board ran out 3♠, 9♣ and Miskelly was sent to the rail. The main pot and small side pot was pushed Tracy's way.

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Action picked up on the river with a sizable pot brewing between the player on the button and Mark Koeln in the big blind.

With the board reading 4♦7♠K♠9♦9♥, Koeln moved all in for 92,500 to put himself at risk.

The button took some time to think through his decision before eventually making the call, only to see the bad news when Koeln tabled 9♣4♠ for a full house, nines full of fours.

"Put you on a blown flush draw," said the button as the pot was pushed Koeln's way.

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

With 23,000 already in the pot, Jeff Wheeler got it all from early position for 71,500 on a flop of 4♥2♦9♠ against the player on the button.

Jeff Wheeler: A♠A♥ All in
Button: J♣9♦

The board ran out safe for Wheeler as the turn landed the 5♦ and the river fell the 7♥.

At a nearby table, Eric Bryant was involved in a three-way all in holding pocket aces against pocket kings and pocket queens.

The flop came A♦J♦6♥ to give Bryant top set, but both of his opponents found help on the Q♥ turn. The J♠ river improved Bryant to a full house, and the sizable pot was pushed his way.

"I'm gonna have to go have a cigarette after that hand," said Bryant as he stacked his chips.
