Savvides Prays For Aces

David Hong opened to 42,000 from middle position only to have Nicholas Heather three-bet to 87,000 from the cutoff.

"If there is a God . . . I have two Aces!" screamed Marios Savvides.

Savvides slowly sweated out his hand in the big blind.

"There is a God" Savvides screamed before pushing his last 91,000 into the middle.

Hong folded by Heather made the call.

Heather: {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Savvides: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}

The board ran out {8-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{4-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{10-Clubs} to see Savvides double through to 345,000 in chips.

"I'm going to start going to church" Savvides added as the next hand began.

Dawkins vs Duong

Dalton Dawkins
Dalton Dawkins

Daniel Duong raised to 45,000 and was called by Dalton Dawkins in the big blind. The flop came down {8-Spades}{3-Hearts}{Q-Spades} and both players checked.

The turn was the {J-Spades} and this time Dawkins bet out 40,000. Duong thought about it and decided to make the call.

The river was the {5-Hearts} and again Dawkins bet 40,000. This sent Duong into the tank for a couple minutes before he mucked. Dawkins is up to 440,000 while Duong drops to 230,000.

Matthew Hankins couldn't improve to stay alive

Christopher Brammer opened to 35,000 from under the gun only to have Matthew Hankins moved all in for 241,000 from middle position.

Hankins: {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Vance: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Brammer: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
