Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT) will be heading to Riverside Casino in Iowa later this summer for the MSPT Iowa State Poker Championship running June 30-July 24.

The Iowa State Poker Championship will culminate with the $1,110 buy-in No-Limit Hold'em Main Event, which is set to run July 21-24 and will feature a guaranteed prize pool of $300,000.

In addition to the marquee Main Event, the Ohio State Poker Championship will feature a number of satellites and a few no-limit Hold'em side events.

The MSPT Iowa State Poker Championship Main Event could easily surpass the $300,000 guarantee if the event draws a big enough turnout. Last year's MSPT Iowa State Poker Championship attracted 928 entries to generate $898,660 in prize money.

The three starting flights will take place July 21-23 with players getting a starting stack of 25,000 in exchange for their buy-in. Day 2 will commence on July 24 and will play down to a winner, who will take home the biggest piece of the prize pool and the MSPT championship trophy.

Beginning June 30, there will be a number of satellites running to give players a chance to win a Main Event seat for as low as $70 or $265.

There will also be a few side events, including the $135 buy-in Thousandaire No-Limit Hold'em event that gets underway on July 23.

Closing out the MSPT Iowa State Poker Championship will be the $360 buy-in Last Chance Showdown, which will take place on July 24.

After the MSPT Iowa State Poker Championship, it will be off to Grand Falls Casino in Sioux Falls, South Dakota for the $1,110 buy-in Main Event from August 19-21. PokerNews will be covering both the Iowa and South Dakota Main Events, so be sure to follow along.

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Reg Powell raised to 18,000 from late position and Camille Brown in the small blind three-bet to 73,000 which folded out the big blind and Powell called.

The flop came out and Brown continued for 55,000 which sent Powell into the tank. After roughly three minutes Powell moved all in and Brown instantly called.

Reg Powell:
Camille Brown:

The turn provided Powell additional outs in the form of an eight, but the river ensured that Brown held the better hand as she sent Powell to the rail.
