Chainsaw Cut Out On The River

A player in middle position raised to 900, and Allen Kessler went all in 6,000 in the hijack. It folded to the small blind, who isolated by going all in himself. The original raiser folded, and the two players flipped their cards up.

Kessler: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Small Blind: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}

Kessler survived the flop, though just barely, as it came {6-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. Kessler would need to dodge an ace, queen, or heart, and did that on the turn, as it came the {k-Diamonds}. However, the {a-Clubs} spiked on the river, and Kessler was eliminated.

Sands Snags Double

Facing a button raise to 900, David Sands pushed from the small blind to 3,250. Once the big blind folded, the button moved all in and Sands snap-called for his last 15,625.

Sands: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Opponent: {7-Spades}{4-Hearts}

The board was spread {A-Spades}{3-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{7-Hearts} to see Sands double through to roughly 33,000 in chips.

More Chippies

Tables are breaking in the black section, and all the players are slowly making their way over to the white section. Here are a few updated counts.

Nguyen Chops

After a raise by Soi Nguyen, an opponent three-bet and the two managed to get it all in with Nguyen's opponent's tournament life on the line.

The flop came {2-Clubs}{A-Spades}{A-Diamonds} and both players turned over their hands. Nguyen held {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and his opponent held {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}. They both shared a chuckle as the turn and river came {3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and they chopped the pot.
