Clayton Wins Massive Pot Against Napierala

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

With the board showing {J-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades}, we walked up to find Tom Clayton with a bet of 48,000 in front of him. The action was on Blake Napierala, who raised to 147,000. After a moment of thought, Clayton called all in.

Napierala: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Clayton: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

Clayton drilled a set on the river to trump Napierala's kings, and the {A-Spades} on the river sealed a big win for Clayton. He's now up to 410,000. Napierala is down to 28,000.

Byczkiw Triples

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Travell Thomas opened to 8,000 and it folded around to Ryan Hall who three-bet to 22,000 from the button. Mark Byczkiw moved all in for 22,500 from the small blind and Thomas called. Hall called the additional 500 and the flop came {J-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}. Thomas checked and Byczkiw fired out a bet of an unknown amount. Thomas quickly released his cards, allowing the other two players to turn their hands over.

Byczkiw: {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}
Hall: {A-Clubs}{2-Clubs}

Byczkiw was out in front with his flopped set of jacks and scored the triple up after the {5-Clubs} turned and the {3-Spades} rivered.
