Brammer{a-Clubs}{9-Spades}

The turn and river came {3-Spades}, {10-Spades} respectively, and Flack doubled, to 1.148 million.

Lehr Jets to the Top of the Counts

Eddy Sabat opened to 56,000 from the hijack seat, Keith Lehr three-bet to 231,000 from the cutoff, and Stanislav Barshak cold four-bet jammed for 569,000 more than Lehr's raised. Sabat quickly released, and the action was back on Lehr, who began tanking.

He eventually called, turning over {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}, and Barshak showed {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}. The {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop gave Lehr four extra outs to Broadway, and the {10-Hearts} on the turn gave him said straight. The {2-Clubs} bricked on the river, and Lehr doubled to 1.704 million chips.

"I can't believe you had that hand," Lehr said. "I didn't want to call."

Big Jam From Flack

Layne Flack
Layne Flack

Christopher Brammer raised under the gun to 55,000 and Gregory Merson called on the button. Nick Maimone was in the small blind, and he called as well. Layne Flack moved quickly and put in a three-bet to 200,000.

Brammer folded, as did Merson, and Maimone made the call.

The flop came down {A-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades}, and Maimone checked.

"All in," Flack announced within a second.

"How much?" Maimone asked, and quickly Flack counted down his stack.

"823,000," Flack replied.

"Why did you go all in?" Maimone asked as he shook his head in disbelief of this big shove.

"Why not?" Flack replied calmly.

Maimone started smiling, but he didn't seem to come up with a good solution to this move. Flack was risking his tournament life, and if Maimone would call and lose he would be down to just under a million.

A couple of minutes went by, and Maimone said, "Do you show if I fold?", but Flack declined.

Maimone ended up folding, and Flack took another pot down.

Shorr Takes a Bite out of Chewy

Shannon Shorr opened to 51,000 from under the gun, Andrew Lichtenberger called on the button, and the flop fell {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}. Shorr led out for 61,000, and Lichtenberger called. The turn was the {k-Clubs}, Shorr led again - this time for 144,000 - and Lichtenberger called.

The {7-Diamonds} completed the board, and Shorr fired a third bullet worth 350,000. Lichtenberger released, and Shorr pulled in the pot.
