Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Brendon Rubie just knocked out two players in one hand. The player under the gun opened for 5,600, the small blind called and Rubie shoved from the big blind. Both players called and Rubie was way ahead holding pocket kings.

The UTG player held {A-} {9-} and the small blind had {8-} {8-} . The board ran out jack high and missed the two all in players.

Rubie is around 750,000 after the hand.

Adams' Wall of Chips Gets a Little Smaller

Timothy Adams opened to 6,000 from the button and the player in the small blind decided to ship all in for 81,200. It folded back to Adams who did not look happy but put a call in anyway:

Adams: {A-Hearts} {10-Spades}
Opponent: {7-Diamonds} {7-Spades}

The board fell {8-Clubs} {5-Spades} {3-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} and Adams was not able to win the race. His opponent doubled up and Adams took a hit to his once massive chip stack.
