Mora's Got More Chips

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

A player had his last 38,000 in chips in from the cutoff, and Juan Mora had him at risk with a call from early position.

Opponent: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Juan Mora: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Mora found a pair on the {10-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{k-Spades} flop, but his opponent picked up a gutshot to go with his still live ace. The {3-Hearts} turn and {6-Diamonds} river bricked off, and Mora knocked out a player.

Davenport Wins a Flip To Double

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Damarjai Davenport had shoved all in for around 55,000 from the big blind over limpers from the cutoff and the player on the button. The cutoff had called and the player on the button was in the tank. He eventually folded.

Damarjai Davenport: {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}
Cutoff: {a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}

The flop came {8-Spades}{7-Spades}{8-Hearts} to give Davenport a sweat at the board double-pairing to counterfeit his threes. The turn fell {5-Hearts} to give his opponent a gutshot straight draw to go along with it. However, the river {j-Clubs} fell clean and Davenport secured the double.

Set-Over-Set Leaves Keeline on Fumes

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Ben Keeline raised to 7,000 from middle position, and Robert Heard called next to act, as did the big blind.

The big blind checked a {3-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Hearts} flop over to Keeline, who bet 8,000. Both of his opponents called.

On the {9-Clubs} turn, the big blind checked again, and Keeline bet 50,000. Heard moved all in for his last 83,000, and the big blind went deep into the tank. After four minutes, a clock was called on him, and it ticked down to three seconds before the big blind finally folded. Keeline didn't take long to call the extra 33,000.

Robert Heard: {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Ben Keeline: {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

Keeline was caught in a cooler, and he couldn't hit the one-outer on the {9-Diamonds} river, sending most of his stack to Heard.

Ingles Felts Moreno

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Jared Ingles
Jared Ingles

Jared Ingles opened to 6,000 from under the gun and was called by the player on his direct left. Action folded around to Michael Moreno, who went all in for 60,000 from the big blind. Ingles went all in over the top of him for 73,000 total and the early-position player thought for about a minute before folding, briefly flashing a red {8-} and a black {8-}.

Jared Ingles: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Michael Moreno: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}

Ingles found himself in shape to knock out Moreno going to the runout. The board came {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} to secure victory for Ingles and Moreno found himself dry on chips, making his way to the rail as Ingles added a big chunk to his stack.

Smith's Day Comes to a Close

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Cory Smith jammed for his last 33,000 from middle position, and the small blind three-bet shoved for slightly more, chasing out the big blind.

Cory Smith: {k-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{5-Spades}

Smith got no love from the {6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop, and although he picked up some chop outs on the {7-Diamonds} turn, the {7-Spades} river left him wanting, and he made his exit from the tournament area.

Heard Gets There To Double

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Robert Heard
Robert Heard

Ben Keeline was seen with under 200,000 in chips and confirmed he had recently lost a pot against Robert Heard, who was on his left. Keeline opened to 7,000 and Heard shoved over the top of him for around 65,000. Keeline called.

Ben Keeline: {k-}{k-}
Robert Heard: {q-}{q-}

The board ran out {a-}{q-}{x-}{x-}{x-} and Heard secured the double. He has since, however, appeared to have lost some back as his stack was seen to be around 73,800.

Offutt Coolers Her Way to a Double

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Katherine Offutt
Katherine Offutt

Katherine Offutt raised to 8,000 from under the gun, and was called by Zelong Dong in the small blind, as well as the big blind.

Action checked to Offutt on a {10-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{k-Diamonds} flop, and she bet 12,000. Dong folded, and the big blind check-raised to 27,500. Offutt snap-jammed for 78,000 total and the big blind called immediately.

Katherine Offutt: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {q-Clubs}{9-Spades}

It was a nuts versus second nuts scenario, as Offutt held not only Broadway, but a Royal Flush draw, while her opponent was just hoping to chop with an ace on the turn or river. The {9-Diamonds} turn instead left Offutt with the nut flush and a lock before the {7-Spades} river could fall, and she doubled up.

Minkin Goes Full Hero For a Double

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Kelly Minkin in Day 1b action
Kelly Minkin in Day 1b action

The big blind checked a {4-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{j-Hearts} board over to Kelly Minkin in middle position, who bet 13,000 into a pot of 28,000.

"I'm gonna raise," Chuck Barker said in the hijack, before pushing out a column of 5k chips for a raise to 100,000. The big blind folded, and Minkin, who had 61,000 total, tanked for two minutes, at one point saying, "Jack-ten...king-queen?" She eventually settled on a call.

Kelly Minkin: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Chuck Barker: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

Minkin was ahead with her pair of sevens, but was looking to dodge a host of outs, as Barker had two overs, the nut flush draw, and a Broadway draw. The {8-Diamonds} bricked off, and Barker said, "Nice hand," to Minkin with a slight nod, as Minkin snapped a quick photo of the hand before raking in the double.
