Another For Bekavac
Level 10
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Dan Bekavac continues to pick up steam, this time coming in on the good side of a three-outer. He opened for a raise and then called the shove of a player who had only 13,700 in the blinds. Bekavac's 
was way behind 
but he found a 
flop to his liking and faded the tens and kings.

Kessler Chops to Survive, Thrive
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
A player opened for 1,800 under the gun and got shoved on by a middle-position player who had 11,600. Allen "Chainsaw" Kessler put his stack of 24,500 in from the small blind, and the big blind cold-called. The opener mucked.

Big blind: 
Middle position: 
The flop came 
and things looked pretty grim for Kessler. A 
turn gave him a straight draw, but a heart would ship the whole pot the big blind's way still. The was exactly what Kessler needed on the river, giving him half of the pot and busting the player with queens.
