John Brock

John Brock shoved all in for just 125,000 over a Joseph [Removed:340] 75,000-chip open.

[Removed:340] called with the {q-Spades}{10-Spades} and was a favorite over Brock's {5-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. Brock picked up a pair on the turn of the {8-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} run out. However, the river queen made [Removed:340] the best hand.

Khajavi Doubles Again

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

Sahar Khajavi got it all in on a {10-Spades}{q-Spades}{9-Hearts} flop heads up with Colin Reid.

Reid called with the {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and had Khajavi's {k-Spades}{q-Clubs} dominated. The {4-Spades} changed nothing, but the {k-Clubs} river made Khajavi two pair and doubled her up.

Heiligenthaler Counterfeits Fluder

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Matt Heiligenthaler continues to crush.

He just picked up aces, and called bets from John Fluder on two streets before firing out a big bet of his own on the river.

Fluder called, having flopped two pair, but was disappointed to see he was counterfeited when the river paired the board as well.

More For Heiligenthaler

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Tim Campbell made it 60,000 to go and Matt Heiligenthaler called on the button. Campbell fired 110,000 at the {9-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Spades} flop, 180,000 at the {j-Clubs} turn, and finally 230,000 at the {2-Clubs} river.

Heiligenthaler looked him up on every street and turned over the {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}. Campbell mucked.
