A player raised to 6,000 from early position, and Steven McKoy, who held the chip lead in the middle portions of the day, three-bet shoved for 19,500 in the small blind. The early-position player called.
Steven McKoy: 
Opponent: 
McKoy's aces held on a 
runout to give him a needed double,
Level: 13
Blinds: 1,500/2,500
Ante: 2,500
Vito DiStefano raised to 5,000 from the hijack, and was called by the small blind, as well as Luis Mantilla in the big blind.
Action checked through the 
flop and 
turn, and the blinds checked the 
river to DiStefano, who flicked out a single 5k chip. The small blind called and Mantilla folded.
DiStefano rolled over 
for the turned nut flush, and the small blind mucked.
Theo Lawson raised to 4,500 from the hijack, and the cutoff jammed for 23,000. Mahmoud "Mike" Masri cold-called on the button, and Lawson folded.
Opponent: 
Mahmoud Masri: 
Masri picked up a ton of outs on the 
flop, and drilled one on the 
turn.
"Would've been more fun if that was on the flop!" the cutoff remarked after the 
came on the river, giving him an inconsequential set, and he hit the rail.
Athanasios Polychronopoulos jammed for 24,500 on the button, and Luis Mantilla called in the big blind.
Athanasios Polychronopoulos: 
Luis Mantilla: 
Polychronopoulos survived the 
flop and turn, but couldn't fade the river counterfeiting his pair of threes to bust.
Level: 12
Blinds: 1,000/2,000
Ante: 2,000
Players are off on their final fifteen-minute break of the evening. When they return, they'll play three more levels before bagging and tagging for the evening.
In a limped pot preflop, the big blind led out for 2,500 on a 
flop, and Jon Ounjian jammed for 19,500 from middle position. Fred Goldberg three-bet shoved for 31,700 in the cutoff, and the big blind tanked for a few minutes before folding.
Jon Ounjian: 
Fred Goldberg: 
Goldberg's top pair was no match for the overpair of Ounjian, and although Goldberg picked up a gutshot on the turn, he improved no further on the 
river and Ounjian doubled up.
"He's taking a chance and limping with kings, boys!" a player at the table noted after the hand.
