Warren Gives the Pile

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Ronnie Lamb saw action folded to him in the cutoff and opened to 70,000. He received a call from Neil Warren on the button and the two went heads up to a flop of {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}. Both players checked.

The turn came {4-Clubs} and Lamb made a delayed continuation-bet of 75,000. Warren announced he was all in and Lamb sent his cards to the muck.

Warren Sends Malatino Home

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Neil Warren pumped it up to 95,000 in early position and was three-bet all in by Griffin Malatino for 392,000 in the cutoff. Warren asked for a count to confirm the amount, thought for a few moments, and then announced a call.

Griffin Malatino: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Neil Warren: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Malatino let out a groan once he saw Warren's hand and his situation did not improve as the board ran out {2-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{10-Spades} to give Warren four tens en route to the pot.

Keshtavar Trampling the Table

Level 22 : 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Behrouz Keshtavar

"All in, all in, all in," exclaimed the dealer to declare a three-way all-in preflop scenario. Ben Berman was in the small blind and all in for the main pot, with Dylan Johnson in the big blind and Behrouz Keshtavar under the gun also in contention for a side pot. Johnson covered both players.

Ben Berman: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Behrouz Keshtavar: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Dylan Johnson: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

The board ran out {j-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades}{q-Hearts} to come clean for Keshtavar to win it all, bringing him just shy of a million in chips.

Moments later, he knocked out Ken Ledwos in a blind-on-blind battle when the two got stacks in on the turn with a board reading {k-}{8-}{2-}{8-}.

Ken Ledwos: {8-}{4-}
Behrouz Keshtavar: {8-}{6-}

Keshtavar faded the chop as the river {6-} gave him a full house and launched him even further up the counts.

Phillip Gioia: {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Abhinav Parakh: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The flop came {k-Hearts}{9-Spades}{k-Spades} to give both players two pair. It gave Gioia two more immediate outs at a full house but he would not need it as the turn {a-Hearts} put him out in front and the river {7-Diamonds} kept him there to score the double.
