Carey Doubles Through Poll Aces Over Kings
Level 20
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
After a player opened for 26,000 and Demian Poll three-bet to 130,000 next to act, Irene Carey four-bet jammed for 237,000 from the big blind. The original raiser folded and Poll quickly called.
Demian Poll: 
Irene Carey: 
It was a cooler and Poll was on the bad end of it. A king appeared in the window on the 
flop but it was followed by an ace to give both players a set.
Neither the 
turn nor 
river were the case king and Carey shipped the double.

Melasi Dominates Kirby
Level 20
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Matt Kirby had his last 140,000 chips in the middle and was up against Jason Melasi. Kirby learned that he was dominated when both players showed their hands.
Jason Melasi: 
Matt Kirby: 
The 
flop was no good for Kirby as it gave him one less out. It was all over on the 
turn card. The meaningless 
fell on the river and Kirby made his way to the payout desk.

Kapoor Breaks the Bank
Level 20
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Action folded to Mitchell Bank in the small blind and he jammed his short stack in the middle. Jason Kapoor was in the big and looked him up.
Mitchell Bank: 
Jason Kapoor: 
"Live cards," Bank said optimistically. He did manage to pair his nine on the 
flop but it was no good as Kapoor also paired his ace.
Neither the 
turn nor 
river helped Bank and he bowed out in 85th place.
