Joe Barnard

Kevin Berthelsen raised to 10,000 from the hijack, and Bhaskar Setti three-bet to 30,000 from the button. Ron Koenemann four-bet shoved for 60,000 in the small blind, and Joe Barnard five-bet shoved for 104,000 in the big blind, chasing out Berthelsen and Setti.

Ron Koenemann: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Joe Barnard: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}

"Hold one time!" Koenemann said before the {9-Spades}{5-Spades}{10-Spades} flop fell. Barnard flopped a flush draw and turned a straight draw with the {q-Hearts}, but the {q-Clubs} river was a brick, shipping the big double to Koenemann.

Steve Vang raised to 8,000 from the button, and was called by James Shearer in the small blind. Kip Smith three-bet to 22,000, and Vang four-bet shoved for 80,000. Shearer folded, and Smith went into the tank.

"I'm either racin' or I'm crushed," Smith said. "I don't like when I say that to myself!"

A few moments later, Smith folded, and told Vang, "Speed limit," to which Vang gave a quick nod.

With a {j-Spades}{7-Clubs}{10-Clubs} flop on the felt, Mark Martin led out for 12,000 from the small blind, and Tim Rystrom called in the hijack. Tim Garles jammed for 88,500 on the button, Martin called off his last 30,000, and Rystrom called as well.

Mark Martin: {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Tim Garles: {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Tim Rystrom: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}

Garles didn't have to wait to lock the hand up, as the {a-Clubs} fell on the turn to give him the win. The {k-Clubs} completed the board on the river, and Garles stood up and said, "Timmy's got some chiiiiiips!" in celebration. Martin was eliminated, while Rystrom was left with just 30,000 and busted a short time later.

Fink bricked the {4-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop, but drilled the {a-Hearts} turn to take the lead, and secured the double after the {5-Clubs} fell on the river.
