Richardson Doubles Through Dolan

All the chips were in the middle preflop when Adam Richardson shoved, getting a call from John Dolan.

Dolan: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Richardson: {10-Clubs}{10-}

Richardson got up and put his bag on, apparently having no faith that his hand would hold up. But when the flop delivered {q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, he stayed ahead and eliminated some of Dolan's outs. the {6-Clubs} on the river gave Richardson the flush, and at this point he decided to sit back down.

Richardson is now our chip leader with 2,200,000 while Dolan is down to just 500,000

Carlson Gets There on the River

Peter Dufek had made a raise to 100,000 from the cutoff and Mick Carlson defended his big blind, making the call.

The flop was {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{10-Spades} and Carlson check-called a bet of 100,000. Both players checked the {3-Clubs} on the turn. The river was the {k-Clubs} and Carlson made a bet of 250,000. Dufek called, but didn't look happy about it.

If Dufek was unhappy before making the call, he was extremely unhappy afterwards. Carlson showed {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for a rivered straight and Dufek mucked.

The pot put Carlson up into second place with close to 2,000,000 chips. Dufek, however, has slipped to 1,500,000 and is in third.

The board of {8-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{a-Hearts} gave Dolan a full double up, and he is now up to 1,500,000 chips. Dufek slipped to 500,000.
