Klodnicki vs. Barber

Just before the level up, Chris Klodnicki raised to 4,000 under the gun and action folded all the way around to Andrew Barber in the big blind. He promptly moved all in for 25,400 and Klodnicki snap-called.

Barber: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Klodnicki: {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}

It was another race situation, with Barber trailing. That quickly changed when the {A-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{K-Spades} flop paired his ace, giving him a big lead. The {6-Spades} turn changed nothing and Barber needed to dodge a jack on the river to stay alive. That is exactly what he did as the {3-Clubs} appeared.

The dealer spread the {8-Hearts}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{7-Hearts} board to ensure Brown the double to 33,000 as Sengphet slips to 195,000 in chips.

Queens for Barnhart

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Jonathon Poche opened to 5,500 from under the gun only to have Sam Barnhart move all in next to act for 52,800. Once the action returned to Poche, he immediately made the call.

Poche: {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}
Barnhart: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

The board filled out {9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{K-Clubs} to see Barnhart double to 110,000 as Poche slipped to 290,000 in chips.

Klodnicki Triples

Action folded to Chris Klodnicki on the button and he moved all in for his last 33,900. Surprisingly, both Drazen Ilich and La Sengphet called from the small blind and big blind respectively. When the flop fell {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{4-Spades}, Ilich immediately moved all in for around 150,000, prompting Sengphet to tank-fold.

Ilich: {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Klodnicki: {A-Hearts}{2-Clubs}

Klodnicki was ahead with his ace but Ilich had a bevy of outs. The {A-Diamonds} turn took a few away, but it was the {4-Spades} on the river that allowed Klodnicki to triple up!

Nguyen Sliding

Huy Nguyen raised to 5,500 from early position and received calls from Drazen Ilich in the hijack and Stanley Quinn in the big blind. When the flop came down {6-Spades}{3-Clubs}{Q-Spades}, Quinn checked, Nguyen bet 7,500, and only Iliach made the call.

The two remaining players checked the {K-Spades} turn, leading to the {8-Diamonds} on the river. Nguyen checked, Ilich fired out 15,700, and Nguyen conceded the hand.

Whoops, Wrong Table

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Stanley Quinn, the winner of the WSOP-Circuit Harvey's Lake Tahoe Main Event, recently stood up from his spot in Seat 2 over on Table 24 to take a a brief break and wandered about the room. When he returned, he promptly took a seat to the left of the dealer. Allen Kessler and a few others at the table looked at him curiously before Quinn realized he had sat down in Seat 1 of Table 26. Quinn quietly rose, went over to the right table, and tried to hide his embarrassment; however, we saw it and have now entered it into the halls of poker lore.
