Roller Coaster of Emotions For Ben Jackson

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Michael Flecther raised from late position and called the few extra chips required when ben Jackson three-bet all-in from the small blind. Jackson's table was surrounded by players eager to see the bubble burst, although Jackson had at least one man in his corner, his dad, Paul.

With all other hands completed, the players showed down their hands: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} for Jackson and {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for Fletcher.

The {8-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop saw Fletcher improve to a flush, although Jackson had flopped top set and wasn't completely out of it. A burn card later, and the {2-Spades} landed on the turn to gift Jackson an unbeatable full house. The {4-Spades} completed the community cards and hand-for-hand continued.

Lightbourne Gets Lucky Versus Mizrachi

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

A brief raising war between Iaron Lightbourne in the small blind and Michael Mizrachi in the big blind sees Lightbourne push all-in for 175,000 and Mizrachi instantly called.

Lightbourne shows {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} and Mizrachi the {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}. The players at the table groan as they expect a chopped pot, but their expectations were wrong because the board ran {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} to gift Lightbourne an unlikely flush and a welcomed double.
