Baime and Calenzani Flip for Huge Pot

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Ken Baime and Stefano Calenzani got all the chips in the middle for more than a million chip pot preflop.

Ken Baime: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Stefano Calenzani: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

It was a classic flip and the {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{4-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} runout paired Baime.

In the aftermath, Baime doubled his 570,000, and Calenzani was left with only 2 big blinds. He has since doubled up twice.

Boat Over Boat has Baime and Spirra Swap Spots

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

With about 250,000 already in the middle on the {5-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{4-Spades} river, Richard Spirra bet 100,000 and Ken Baime cut out a stack of 500,000. Spirra called all in for less.

Baime rolled over {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} for aces full of fours, but Spirra held {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} for aces over kings.

They essentially swapped spots on the leaderboard after that massive cooler.

After a few minutes, the clock was called and Calenzani counted out his chips before calling.
