Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Brett Schwertley grinded a short stack for a long time at MSPT Meskwaki.
Brett Schwertley grinded a short stack for a long time at MSPT Meskwaki.

Action folded to Brett Schwertley, who pushed his short stack all in from the small blind. Mike Lang called in the big blind.

Lang: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Schwertley: {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}

"You got this," one of the players said to Schwertley.

He couldn't have been more wrong, as the flop came {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{j-Clubs} to give Lang a straight. A {j-Diamonds} turn brought a sweat by giving Schwertley a flush draw, but the Nebraskan checked out of the tournament when the {k-Spades} completed the board.

Tepen Ousts One With Quads

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Ryan Tepen opened for 16,000 on the button, and the big blind three-bet to 48,000. Tepen put the player all in for about 90,000 total, and he called it off.

Tepen: {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
Big blind: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}

The {10-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop gave Tepen a big lead with a set. The {9-Clubs} changed nothing, and a {2-Clubs} river shipped him quads for good measure.

Peixin Liu opened for a raise in middle position and got three callers: Matt Kirby in the cutoff and both blinds.

The small blind bet out 25,000 on the {j-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop, and Liu made it 80,000. Kirby flatted, and the small blind folded. The {9-Spades} turned, and Liu moved all in for over 100,000. Kirby snapped, and he tabled {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, way ahead of Liu's {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}. The {5-Clubs} hit the river, and Kirby, who entered the day as chip leader, has regained that title.
