Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

We found Jose Serratos sending most of his stack to Philip Wojtuniecki in a blind-versus-blind battle. The dealer counted down Wojtuniecki's stack of 138,000 and Serratos was left with just 11,000. The board had come , giving Wojtuniecki top pair with . Serratos' cards were already mucked.

The next hand, Serratos put in his remaining stack when it was folded to him in the small blind, just enough to call the big blind against Dan Bekavac.

Bekavac:
Serratos:

Serratos' turn with the nine-seven also resulted in top pair as flopped, but an on the river gave Bekavac a wheel.
