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.

Spears Eliminates Przybyl; Redraw Time

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

We're down to our final three tables after Andy Spears took the last of Steven Przybyl's chips at the feature table. Spears opened with a raise to 6,000 form the button and Przybyl defended his big blind to see a {J-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} flop. Przybyl led out for 10,000 and Spears called. The turn was the {10-Hearts} and Przybyl shoved. Spears snapped it off.

Przybyl: {J-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Spears: {K-Hearts}{J-Clubs}

The {9-Spades} on the river spelled the end of the tournament for Przybyl. Meanwhile, Spears increased his lead and is now sitting behind a stack of around 470,000.

The final 27 players are taking their new seats. We'll have a full redraw for you shortly.

Aitchison Doubles Through The Candy Man

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

Randy Pfeifer opened with a raise to 5,000 from middle position and Pete Magliarditi, who still had several Snickers bars in front of him, called from the cutoff. Scott Aitchison then three-bet to 22,500 from the big blind, and only Magliarditi called.

The flop came down {10-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{10-Clubs} and Aitchison bet 25,000. Magliarditi quickly min-raised to 50,000, and Aitchison responded by moving all in for 86,700 more. Magliarditi went deep into the tank.

"Time to double up I guess," he said, but we're not sure if he was talking about him or Aitchison. A minute later he made the call, and the cards were tabled.

Aitchison: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}
Magliarditi: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

Aitchison needed to fade a six through the turn and river, and he did so when the dealer rolled out the {8-Clubs} and {J-Clubs}. Aitchison is up to around 330,000. Magliarditi was eliminated two hands later.
