Vang Three-Outs Givens for Double

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Kou Vang jammed for 243,000 from middle position, and William Givens called right away from his left. Everyone else folded.

Givens: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Vang: {a-Spades}{2-Clubs}

Givens had Vang dominated, but the tables turned quickly on the {2-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop. Givens didn't improve on the {8-Clubs} or {5-Clubs}, and Vang doubled up to a playable stack.

Phanora Prom Eliminated in 9th Place ($9,740)

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Phanora Prom - Ninth Place
Phanora Prom - Ninth Place

Kou Vang opened for a raise to 52,000, and Phanora Prom shoved on the button for 142,000. Vang thought for a bit before making the call.

Vang: {k-Spades}{6-Spades}
Prom: {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}

Prom had his opponent dominated, and the flop came {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Clubs}, giving Vang a pair and Prom an open-ender. A {j-Hearts} turn was a brick, but Vang spiked the {k-Clubs} on the river to make two pair and bust his opponent.

Brad Zotti - Eighth Place

In a min-raised pot, Jonathan McCray check-called 48,000 from Brad Zotti on a {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}{q-Hearts} flop. Both players checked the {2-Spades} turn, and Zotti attempted to check the {7-Spades} river out of turn. McCray fired 70,000, and Zotti came out with a raise to 150,000. McCray announced all in, and Zotti called immediately.

Zotti: {j-Spades}{9-Spades}
McCray: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

McCray had flopped quads, and his slow-play had paid off when Zotti runnered a flush.

Wagner Runs Down Colpoys

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Dan Colpoys opened for 50,000 in middle position, and Kris Wagner (button) and Danny Ray Gonzales (big blind) called. Colpoys bet 102,000 on the {9-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} flop after Gonzales checked. Wagner was the only taker. A {6-Hearts} fell on the turn, and Colpoys check-called 173,000. When a {7-Hearts} completed the community, Colpoys checked once more before immediately calling a bet of 221,000 from Wagner.

"I got lucky on the river," Wagner said, tabling {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for a top pair that had turned into a backdoor flush. Colpoys mucked {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} face up.

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Jonathan Haidsiak - Seventh Place

Jonathan Haidsiak open-shoved from the cutoff for 230,000, and Dan Colpoys called on the button.

Colpoys: {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Haidsiak: {5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}

All looked lost for Haidsiak when the dealer revealed a {j-Spades} as the door card, but the last two cards were quite helpful: {2-Spades}{3-Spades}.

"I'll take a chop," Haidsiak said when the {7-Spades} hit the turn.

The board paired with the {7-Clubs} though, and his short-stacked run was finally over.

Jonathan McCray limped in before calling a 95,000 raise from Kris Wagner on the button. McCray bet out 100,000 on the {j-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop, and Wagner raised to 205,000. McCray called, then led out again, this time for 205,000, on the {6-Hearts} turn. Wagner took about a minute before calling, and the {6-Clubs} hit the river. McCray fired 400,000, and his opponent folded.
