Before Break...

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Mike Sowers was first to act, and raised to 52,000. Taylor Paur called on the button, Jeremy Menard called from the big blind, and the flop came down {3-Spades}{4-Hearts}{8-Spades}. The action checked to Paur who who bet 63,000, and only Sowers called. The turn was the {k-Diamonds}, Sowers checked again, and Paur slid out 147,000. Sowers called.

Both players checked after the river was the {8-Clubs}, and Sowers unhappily opened up {9-Spades}{8-Hearts} for a failed river check-raise. He scooped the pot though, and is back over a million

Sowers fired 155,000 more, which Paur called. Sowers rolled over {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} for the winning hand.

Wade is Winning

Tristan Wade opened to 65,000 from the cutoff, Ben Tollerene called in the small blind, and Joe Ebanks defended his big.

Paur Rebuilding

Action folded to Chris Moorman in the cutoff and he bumped it up to 65,000, which Jeremy Menard called from the button. The small blind got out of the way and action was on Taylor Paur in the big blind. He decided to ship his stack, which prompted both his opponents to fold.

It wasn't much, but Paur added 130K to his stack..

Joseph Ebanks
Joseph Ebanks

Tristan Wade raised from the cutoff to 65,000 and was called by Joe Ebanks in the big blind.

The {10-Spades} river brought about some action when Ebanks checked, Wade bet 65,000, Ebanks check-raised to 300,000, and Wade made the call.

Ebanks revealed {A-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for trip nines and Wade simply mucked.
