Miller Knocks Out Patric in Huge Pot

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Andrew Miller opened to 65,000 from early position getting looked up by Chris Patric, Chris Babula, and Jack Kerr. A {6-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{j-Hearts} flop fanned out and Miller continued for 200,000. Patric moved all-in for 650,000 clearing the rest of the table and Miller snap-called.

Andrew Miller: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Chris Patric: {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Patric was in rough shape with Miller holding two of his outs. The board ran out {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and Miller scooped a monster pot sending Patric to the rail in 17th place.

Napierala and Zaenglein Chop it With Aces

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

We arrived at the table to see three players with their cards face up preflop. Much to the delight of everyone at the table but Blake Napierala and Rob Zaenglein, who both woke up with pocket aces. Kevin Ray was the shortest stack with pocket sixes but Zaenglein was also at risk.

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{k-Hearts} and Ray's chips were split amongst Napierala and Zaenglein.

Big Call From Babula

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

With a board reading {k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, Jack Kerr bet 65,000 only to see Chris Babula raise to 165,000. That got Mike Curtiss out of the way and Kerr made the call. Both checked the {j-Hearts} on the turn bringing the {10-Hearts} on the river. Kerr bet 175,000 and after a brief deliberation, Babula made the call.

Kerr tabled just a pair of threes with the {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Babula turned over the {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} winning a massive pot with a pair of jacks.
