Ahmann Busts Dahlin

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Adam Dahlin moved all in from the button in an unopened pot for 30,000, and Al Ahmann reshoved in the small blind. The big blind folded.

Ahmann: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}
Dahlin: {q-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

Dahlin turned a gutter when the first four came {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}, but a {2-Diamonds} river sent him to the rail.

Smith Gets There Twice

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

We found Jason Smith putting a player all in after a flop of {q-Spades}{3-Hearts}{j-Spades}. His opponent made the call.

Smith: {k-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

The dealer burned and turned the {9-Hearts} shipping Smith a lock immediately. An {a-Clubs} hit the river, making him an even bigger straight.

Zekus Rockets Up Counts

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Brian Zekus pushes all in with kings.
Brian Zekus pushes all in with kings.

In a pot that occurred during the last level, Brian Zekus dragged a huge three-way all in with {k-}{k-} against a player holding {q-}{q-} and another with {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

More recently, he opened to 16,000 in early position and got three-bet shoved on by a player in the cutoff for 82,000. Zekus called.

Zekus: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Cutoff: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

The cutoff got up after the {7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} gave Zekus a flush draw. The {3-Clubs} hit the turn, and the {q-Hearts} the river, eliminating the cutoff from contention and putting Zekus over the 500k mark.

Rooster Oien ran into rockets.
Rooster Oien ran into rockets.

We found Jason Smith with a bet of 40,000 in front of him on a {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop. Rooster Oien announced all in, and Smith snap-called.

Oien: {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}
Smith: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

The dealer brought out a sweat card: the {q-Diamonds}, giving Oien a flush draw. It wasn't to be, however, as an {8-Spades} completed the board and ended his tournament.

Coburn Puts a Beat on Bohn

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Blake Bohn was the victim of a bad beat here on Day 2.
Blake Bohn was the victim of a bad beat here on Day 2.

We found Nes Coburn all in from middle position, and Blake Bohn called off his stack of about 90,000 in the cutoff. Everyone else bowed out.

Coburn: {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Bohn: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

Bohn had Coburn dominated, and the {6-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} flop kept him well in front. The {5-Diamonds} turn gave Coburn a flush draw, and the {4-Diamonds} river completed it.

Coburn proclaimed that he had yet to lose a race.

"That's not a race," Bohn said with a laugh. "You know that's as far away from a race as you can get."

"Love this game," Bohn said as he walked away from the table.
