Level 3 : Blinds 200/200, 300 ante

There was three-way all in action between Max Havlish, Vic Peppe, and Gregory Kukowski with Kukowski having both players covered.

Max Havlish: {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Vic Peppe: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
Gregory Kukowski: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Peppe was ahead holding a made hand of sevens and it stayed that way after the {10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop hit the felt.

The {5-Clubs} turn didn't change a thing but the {q-Hearts} river secured Kukowski the double elimination as it paired his queen.

There were four players that too to a {4-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop and two players got their stacks into the middle after an initial 1,600 bet.

Dan Duggan: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Duggan was out in front after flopping a set of fives but the {k-Diamonds} turn gave him a little sweat as his opponent could pull ahead if an ace or king were to fall on the river.

Luckily for Duggan, the {4-Clubs} paired the board on the river and secured his 24,100 double-up.
