Barshak Bluffs Out Holley

John Holley opened to 325 in the hijack and Corey "comandr_cool" Burbick popped it to 1,200 from the cutoff. Steve "Illini213" Barshak four-bet to 3,175 in the small blind, finding calls from both Holley and Burbick.

The flop came down {8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Barshak bet 4,600. Holley tagged along, Burbick ducked out of the way, and the {K-Diamonds} followed on the turn. Barshak fired again, this time 9,500. Holley sat back in his chair and sighed, "I told myself I wouldn't go broke with queens," and then proceeded to fold his {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} face up.

Barshak showed a {7-Spades} as he collected the chips.

Thomas Takes Out Keller

With the board reading {Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, Robert Keller saw his bet of 1,525 get raised to 3,525 by Benjamin Thomas. Keller, though, re-raised to 8,500. A call from Thomas led to the {Q-Diamonds} falling on the river.

Keller shoved for about 17,500 and after a few moments was met with a call from Thomas who showed {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} for a full house. Keller showed {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}, but his trips were second best, ending his tournament.

Senie Doubles Through Owen

We arrived at the table and found a board of {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and 7,800 in the pot.

Brian Senie was faced with a decision of 5,000 chips from Steven Owen and after about two minutes, Senie popped it to 13,000. Owen didn't seem to mind, re-raising an additional 15,000 on top. Senie called all in for about 13,500 and showed {5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. His call was a risky one, but his read was spot on as Owen showed {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}.

The river was the {Q-Spades}, securing the double for Senie.
