Level 10
: 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
A player in middle position opened to 4,000 and received a call from the hijack. Ian Pelz was next to act in the cutoff and he three-bet to 15,000. The original opener quickly folded, and then the hijack went into the tank for more than a minute before tossing in chips to call.
The flop dropped 
and the hijack checked. Pelz took his remaining stack of 33,500 and put it onto the felt, pushing it so that it toppled forward. The hijack once again went into the tank for close to a full minute and then found a fold, earning Pelz the pot.

Action folded to the hijack, who opened and saw Jerry Cyr re-jam for 14,500 in the small blind. A call was made.
Jerry Cyr: 
Hijack: 
Both players smashed the flop 
, ultimately giving Cyr one less out to fade for the remainder of the runout. The turn 
was the prettiest card in the deck for him, giving him the nuts and locking up the double as the river 
completed the runout.

Jeff Heiberg opened the action with a raise to 2,800 in the cutoff and the player on the button called. The small blind then squeezed, three-bet shoving for around 30,000. Heiberg re-jammed for 32,900, and the small blind folded after some serious deliberation.
All-In Player: 
Jeff Heiberg: 
Heiberg's cowboys remained best through a runout of 
and the pot was shipped his way as a result.

Action was heads up on a board reading 
between Thomas Fuller in the hijack and Ashley Warren, who was on the button. Fuller checked to Warren, who bet 15,000 into a pot barely bigger, sending Fuller into the tank.
"Whose action is it?" asked another player from across the table after a while had passed. Fuller replied that it was on him, and a clock was called. Fuller didn't use much of his 30-second allotment before calling, and action proceeded to check through the river to take the hand to showdown.
Warren showed 
after checking back and it was good enough to receive a muck from Fuller and earn her the pot.
