Jim Lawrence got a lucky double.
Jim Lawrence got a lucky double.

We found Jason Smith with a bet of 45,000 in front of him on the button after a flop of {q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{a-Diamonds}. Jim Lawrence had shoved for 262,000 in the big blind.

"Alright, I call," Smith said, turning over {10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for a flush draw.

Lawrence got out of his seat as he tabled {7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for a weaker flush draw. A {j-Hearts} turn was a blank, but the {2-Clubs} fell on the river to save Lawrence.

"Yesss," he said quietly.

Players are on break for the next 10 minutes.

Wilmes Ships Lawrence a Double

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Mike Wilmes had what looked like 45,000 in front of him under the gun, and Jim Lawrence had shoved for 173,000 on the button. Wilmes made the call with {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, but he was behind Lawrence's {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}. A {9-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{9-Spades} flop left Wilmes needing runner-runner, and a {2-Spades} ended those hopes.

Mike Wilmes hit a draw to take a huge pot.

Three players saw a {7-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop for what appeared to be 100,000 each. Ken Pates checked, Todd Lyfoung bet 80,000, and Mike Wilmes made it 250,000 on the button. Pates announced a reraise and he pushed 500,000 into the middle. Lyfoung got out of the way, and Wilmes moved all in for 621,000 and was called.

Wilmes: {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Pates: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

Wilmes had a massive draw, while Pates had flopped middle set. The {2-Spades} was a brick on the turn. The dealer placed down a {9-Clubs} river, giving Wilmes the stone nuts, and he now has a chip lead over the field.

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Taylor Tollefson busted when he three-bet jammed A4.
Taylor Tollefson busted when he three-bet jammed A4.

Taylor Tollefson three-bet all in for 200,000 after Tony Lazar opened the button for 26,000. Lazar tanked for a couple of minutes, but he must have decided the price was right, as he tossed in a calling chip.

Lazar: {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Tollefson: {a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}

It was nearly even money going to the flop, with Tollefson holding a slight lead. The {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{k-Hearts} flop was clean for him, but a {j-Clubs} turn gave Lazar a straight draw. The {10-Spades} gave him just a pair, but that was enough, and Tollefson hit the rail.
