Ajayi Doubles Through Murphy

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Dapo Ajayi
Dapo Ajayi

Action on the table folded around to TJ Murphy who raised to 8,000 on the button and Dapo Ajayi three-bet jammed for 31,400 from the big blind.

Murphy spent some time in the tank and then tossed out the chips for a call.

TJ Murphy: {j-Spades}{9-Spades}
Dapo Ajayi: {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

Ajayi was ahead and the {3-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} flop paired his ace.

The {k-Clubs} turn was a good card for both players as it gave Ajayi the nut flush draw while Murphy still had hope drawing to a non-club ten.

Murphy wanted to see a ten fall on the river but it came the {j-Clubs}, giving Ajayi the nuts and securing his double-up.

Aces Are Good for Burleson

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Rick Burleson
Rick Burleson

A player from early position raised to 3,000 and Rick Burleson three-bet to 8,500 a few seats over.

Action folded back around to the initial raiser who called and the dealer dropped a {k-}{j-}{j-} flop. The initial raiser check-jammed for 26,000 after Burleson continued and Burleson called having his opponent slightly covered.

Rick Burleson: {a-}{a-}
Opponent: {q-}{q-}

Both players held made hands but Burleson's was better and neither the {8-} turn nor the {7-} river changed a thing.

Darland Hits Four Card Flush to Stay Alive

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Jason Darland From Day 1a Action
Jason Darland From Day 1a Action

Jason Darland was all in preflop for 20,700 from early position and was called by a player from late position.

Jason Darland: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

Darland was in rough shape and the {a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop made things worse as it gave his opponent top-set.

The {8-Clubs} turn however, kept Darland's Main Event hopes alive with a club flush draw and luckily for him, the dealer dropped the {9-Clubs} on the river, securing his double-up.
