Jaber Gets Paid, Jumps Into Chip Lead

PLO: Jerry Jaber moved all-in on the river of a {6-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} board. His heads-up opponent, Andre Pelletier went into the tank. The pot had around 250,000 in the middle and Jaber's shove was worth 131,000.

Pelletier agonized over the decision and eventually made the call. Jaber tabled {9-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for rivered trips, and a disgusted Pelletier mucked his hand.

NLHE: Shawn Dubeau was down to one chip the last hand before the break. During the break however, the yellow 1K chips were raced off and Dubeau was instantly bumped to a blue, 5K chip.

He doubled a couple times until getting his last 30,000 in the middle preflop against Joseph Kennedy.

Dubeau: {a-Spades}{7-Clubs}
Kennedy: {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Dubeau was ahead but needed to hold on to score the double up. The board ran out {6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} giving Kennedy a pai of kings on the river, sending Dubeau to the payout desk.
