The Trials of Travell
Level 9
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Forced to fire a second bullet just moments ago, Travell Thomas is already back in contention.
Having earned a quick double almost immediately, he picked up even more chips defending his big blind against a 2,200 open from the button.
They both checked the 
flop, but when the 
came down on the river, Thomas forced his foe to fold with an 1,800-chip bet.

Royally Flushed
Level 9
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
On a downswing since joining the early chip leaders, Jim Bucki has now gone broke.
He did it in style, however, turning two pair with 
versus 
before his opponent rivered a Royal Flush to send him packing.
