Level 7 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Charlie Hawes raised to 2,200 from the early position and was called by Michael Kanaan on the button and Hauman Darbani in the small blind.

They then both checked through the {q-Hearts} on the turn and the {7-Clubs} on the river for Kanaan to pick up the pot with {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}.

Psarras Left Short

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

George Psarras bet a {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop for 6,500 with around 11,000 behind and folded to a jam.

Soon after, he was all in with {a-Spades}{3-Hearts} and trailed an opponent with ace-king. Psarras got a miracle chop as the ace was good enough for a straight to chop it up.

Graham Runs Queens Into Kings

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Jarred Graham
Jarred Graham

Two big stacks are now sitting next to each other as Jason Pritchard and Tu Le are both near the top of the leaderboard. Le's rise was a result of a big clash with Jarred Graham when two premium pairs got it in before the flop.

Graham raised and Le three-bet to 7,800 only for Graham to click it back to 20,000 with around 51,000 behind. Le moved forward his tower of yellow T-5,000 chips and Graham carefully checked his remaining stack before calling all in.

Jarred Graham: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Tu Le: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

On a board of {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{j-Spades}{5-Spades}, Graham found no help and was sent to the rail.

"That was a pretty good hand," Le said while he was busy stacking up the chips of Graham.

Shivan Abdine: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Donald Civic: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Abdine had flopped two pair and was ahead of the pair of queens of Civic.

The turn brought them the {a-Spades} to give Abdine a full house and leave Civic drawing dead.

The river completed the board with the {9-Hearts} as a formailty as Abdine doubled up.

Moffitt Doubles Through Qiu

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
John Moffitt
John Moffitt

Ardi Jaya raised from early position and bowed out against the action behind him, as a squeeze by Wenjian Qiu on the button and the jam of John Moffitt in the big blind for 34,300 in total proved to be too much. Qiu, however, made the call and they turned over the following cards.

John Moffitt: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Wenjian Qiu: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The board came {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and the aces held up for Moffitt to double.
