Can't Stop Jaka

With the board reading {K-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{K-Spades}, Faraz Jaka led for 900 and his opponent called.

The {2-Clubs} turned and Jaka led for 2,400. His opponent again called.

The {3-Spades} fell on the river and Jaka led for a huge bet; 15,000. His opponent called for a third time but mucked when Jaka tabled {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts} for a rivered full house.

There's no stopping Jaka right now, he's up to 80,000 chips.

Negreanu Doubles

Daniel Negreanu opened and a player moved all in over the top of him. Negreanu called and the hands were tabled:

Showdown
Negreanu: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}

The {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop all but ended the hand and it was official after the {2-Diamonds} turned. The {7-Spades} river was but a formality and Negreanu doubled to 15,000 chips.

Billirakis led again - this time for 3,500. Hawrilenko called and mucked when Billirakis showed {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} for a straight.

Hawrilenko slipped to 12,400 chips while Billirakis chipped up to 29,000.

RaSZi Rivered

Walking past Lex 'RaSZi' Veldhuis' table we noticed that his chair was vacant.

Veldhuis held Kings and Jeremy Ausmus ace-king with all the money going in preflop.

Unfortunately for Veldhuis, the river would fall an ace to send him to the rail.
