Boyer Gets a Dub

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Kevin Boyer went all in for 605,000 in middle position and Dedric Henderson dropped in a chip to call on the button after getting confirmation of the amount. Both players in the blinds then folded.

Kevin Boyer: {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Dedric Henderson: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Boyer hit a jack on the flop {j-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Hearts} and then saw the turn come {k-Hearts}, giving Henderson three more outs to Broadway. However, the river {8-Diamonds} was safe and he locked in the double.

Daniel Hendrickson
Daniel Hendrickson

Dennis Stevermer opened to 130,000 in middle position and action folded around to Daniel Hendrickson, known locally as "DQ Dan" as a reference to being a Dairy Queen owner.

Hendrickson defended to take action heads up to a flop of {7-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{a-Spades} and he led out with a bet of 130,000. Stevermer slid his cards forward along the felt shortly thereafter and "DQ Dan" took down the pot.

Mcmaster Climbing

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Derek Mcmaster had taken a series of small pots prior to knocking out Phil Mader and just defended his big blind to an open from Dennis Stevermer, who was on the button.

The flop fell {k-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Spades} and Mcmaster checked to Stevermer, who made a continuation-bet of 140,000. Mcmaster reached for chips and put out a check-raise to 325,000. Stervermer thought for a couple of seconds and let his hand go, resulting in another pot being shipped Mcmaster's way.

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Phil Mader
Phil Mader

Derek Mcmaster opened to 130,000 in early position and action made its way to Phil Mader, who three-bet all in for 530,000 on the button. Mcmaster asked how much and then quickly saw Mader's stack size and announced a call.

Phil Mader: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Derek Mcmaster: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

The two were off to the races and Mader pulled in front on the flop {k-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Spades}. However, the turn {q-Hearts} gave him seven more outs at a straight and the river {a-Hearts} came to fill Mcmaster up to Broadway, topping Mader's top two pair to result in him leaving the tournament in eighth place.
