Kumar K.A raised to 36,000 and Peter Dykes three-bet out of the big blind to 101,000 in order to force a fold.

In the next hand, Joe Antar raised to 35,000 and K.A jammed from two seats over. Yisi Zhang in the big blind asked for a count on the shove, which was for 274,000 in total, and folded. Antar also quickly released his cards into the muck.

Clash of the Michaels

Level 19 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Michael Kanaan shoved from under the gun for 183,000 and was called by Michael Tran in the big blind.

Michael Kanaan: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Michael Tran: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

The flop came {9-Clubs}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for Kanaan to stay ahead but for Tran to pick up the gutshot to a straight.

The turn was the {8-Spades} for the straight indeed. Only another jack for a split pot could save Kanaan but the river bricked with the {3-Diamonds} for Kanaan to be eliminated in 31st place.

Misaghian Finds Another Miracle

Level 19 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Mazyar Misaghian: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Joseph Hayek: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

The flop came {j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Clubs} to not change the situation.

The turn was the {q-Hearts} to give Misaghian a pair of queens.

"Brick it!" Misaghian shouted.

The river bricked indeed when the {2-Hearts} completed the board for Misaghian to double up.
