Big Stacks Begin To Emerge

BenLudlow

Now that we are down to just 280 players, the big stacks have begun to emerge here on Day 2. One of those is Raffi Nahabedian who just won a big flip against another player at his table.

Nahabedian raised preflop and his opponent moved all in for around 20,000. Nahabedian called and showed his {k-Diamonds} {q-Diamonds} which was up against the {6-} {6-} of his opponent.

The flop came down {6-Diamonds} {k-Spades} {7-Spades} which caused Nahabedian to jump up in celebration, although when he realized there was a six on there as well as a king he sat down and looked dejected. It wasn't over yet though as the turn came {10-Diamonds} to give Nahabedian a flush draw and the river {5-Diamonds} completed it and allowed him a proper victory celebration this time. He is up to 145,000 and one of the biggest stacks in the room.

Pieces of What

[user76023]

Jerome Bradpiece opened to 2,700 preflop only for the button to reraise to 6,900. Bradpiece asked for a count of his opponent's stack before moving all in, the button then sighed and called.

Bradpiece: {K-Hearts} {K-Clubs}
Button: {A-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}

The board came {7-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {7-Hearts} and Bradpiece had his opponent just covered to knock him out.
