Oleary's Double KO

David Peters, George Womble, and Kevin Oleary all got their chips in the middle preflop.

Peters: {A-Hearts} {9-Clubs}

Womble: {3-Clubs} {3-Hearts}

Oleary: {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs}

The board ran out {Q-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} and Oleary's aces held. He increased his stack to 295,000 and both Womble and Peters hit the rail.

Ernie Crespo Doubles Up

Mike Glasser raised to 20,000 from early position. Action folded to Ernie Crespo in late position and he moved all in for 89,000. Sebastian Segovia called from the button. Glasser threw his hand away and the players showed:

Crespo: {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts}
Segovia: {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}

The ladies held for Crespo and he chipped up to just over 210,000. Segovia slips to about 105,000 on the hand.

Sasa Biorac Eliminated

We caught up to this hand on the flop. Sasa Biorac's tournament life was on the line and he tabled {A-Hearts} {5-Hearts}. His long opponent, Eric Beren had him in bad shape holding {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs}.

The board came {K-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {4-Hearts} giving Beren a stranglehold on the hand. The turn and river blanked for Biorac and he was eliminated.

Russell Spaid Doubles Through David Barter

We caught up to this hand on the flop. With the board reading {10-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {2-Hearts} David Barter bet 15,500. Russell Spaid raised all in for just under 100,000 total. Barter snap-called and the players showed:

Barter: {J-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}
Spaid: {7-Hearts} {6-Hearts}

The turn came the {3-Hearts}, completing Spaid's flush and leaving Barter drawing dead. The river was the meaningless {6-Spades}, and Spaid doubled up to about 218,000. Barter is still a force, however, with about 315,000.

Rich Styczynski Doubles Up

David Peters raised to 10,500 from under the gun and Gary Bain called from late position. Rich Styczynski moved all in for over 100,000. Bain passed and the players showed:

Peters: {8-Spades} {8-Hearts}
Styczynski: {A-Spades} {J-Spades}

The flop came {A-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {2-Spades} and Styczynski took the lead. The turn and river came the {10-Diamonds} and {Q-Spades} respectively. Styczynski doubled up to just over 55,000 while Peters is down to about 105,000.
