Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

One wouldn't normally think a flop like the would cause a lot of fireworks. However, with 100,000 already in a heads-up pot between Colin Reid and Tim Campbell, that exact flop saw a raising war.

Reid bet 53,000, Campbell raised to 129,000 and Reid shoved for 125,000 more. Campbell called with the , but Reid had the goods.

His ultimately held on an run out and Reid now has half a million. Campbell was left with half that.

Meet The New Boss

[user127999]

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Keith Gray has taken hold of the chip lead after a massive cooler.

Some unfortunate soul ran kings into his aces for a 360,000-chip pot and when the dust settled, he was out and Gray was on top of the chip counts.

In the meantime, Jason Nablo came in with a huge stack, but will disappoint his legions of fans yet again by taking a second-level cash. He just never got it going today, losing pot after pot until all the chips were gone.
