Meyers Runs Into Aces

Brandon Meyers thought he would be quite ahead after he called a short stack's preflop all in while holding {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}. Unfortunately for Meyers, his opponent held {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs} and it held after the board came {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}. His opponent's all in for 79,500 knocked Meyer's stack down to 195,000.

Grudev Gaining Steam

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Mike Meyers opened for 8,500, Grudi Grudev called behind him and Andy Philachack called as well. The flop came {Q-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}, Philachack checked, Meyers checked and Grudev fired out 13,000. Philachack called and Meyers folded. The turn came {6-Hearts} and Philachack check-called 29,000 from Grudev. The river came {K-Clubs}, Philachack checked and Grudev checked behind.

Philachack tabled {A-Spades} {Q-Spades} and Grudev showed {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} for a rivered set, bringing him up to 520,000.

Collina Takes a Hit

Lamberto Collina raised to 13,000 from late position only to find the player in the cutoff move all in for 70,500. Action folded back around to Collina who made the call.

Collina: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}

The board fell {5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and Collina shipped a nice chunk of chips toward his opponent.

Gravatt Throws Off Grudev's Groove

On a flop of {A-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, Grudi Grudev led out for 63,000 into a pot worth 35,000 before Jason Gravatt shoved all-in for 174,500. Grudev snap-called, tabling {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} which had hit top pair against Gravatt's {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}.

Nothing changed on the turn of the {K-Hearts}, but Gravatt caught a miracle river {9-Hearts} for the set to double up!
