Stevermer Takes Another Chunk From Mustafa

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Dennis Stevermer
Dennis Stevermer

Mike Mustafa put Dennis Stevermer at risk before the flop for Stevermer's 20,600.

Stevermer: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}
Mustafa: {k-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

Mustafa was ahead, but an {8-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop changed that. The {2-Spades} worsened things further by giving Stevermer a flush draw, and a {10-Diamonds} river meant Mustafa's massive slide continued.

Big Stacks Take Hits

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
MSPT Ho-Chunk Gaming
MSPT Ho-Chunk Gaming

Kevin Fiedler and Benjamin Berlowski got it all in after a {k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{j-Spades} flop with Berlowski at risk for 48,800.

Berlowski: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}
Fiedler: {k-}{j-}

Fiedler looked poised to add to his already-hefty stack, but running {2-Spades}{2-Clubs} ended those hopes by giving Berlowski aces up.

At another table, Ken Payne won a huge pot off Mike Mustafa in a hand we didn't see. After the hand, Mustafa was visibly irritated.

Fiedler's Big Three-Bet Induces the Shove

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

A player opened for 5,000 in early position, and Kevin Fiedler reraised to about 20,000. Action folded back to the opener, who jammed for about 60,000. Fiedler quickly called.

Fiedler: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The board ran out dry, {9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{10-Spades}, and Fiedler added to a monstrous stack.

Sell Doubles Through Lazar

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Defending champ Jason Sell still has a pulse after he shoved for 10,700 over a 3,600 open from Tony Lazar, who made a reluctant call. Lazar was unable to hit with {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} against Sell's {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} as the community ran out {3-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs}.

No Champagne for Ormson

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Larry Ormson ran into Ken Payne's kings.
Larry Ormson ran into Ken Payne's kings.

In one of the last hands in Level 11, Larry Ormson opened for 3,100 and Ken Payne made it 7,000 to go from the cutoff. Action folded back to Ormson, who took awhile before announcing all in, splashing his chips in a fistful at a time.

"I don't like the way you did that," Payne said with a shrug. "But I can't fold."

Payne: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Ormson: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Payne's fears were unfounded, and the {10-Clubs}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} community was in his favor. After the hand, he said he saw Ormson go through a similar process and turn over aces at a previous table.
