Amyx called and upon seeing Cohen show {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, Amyx turned over {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} for a pair of kings to win the pot.

Whitall Doubles Through Blumenthal

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Chris Whitall and Nicholas E. Blumenthal just became embroiled in a blind-vs.-blind preflop situation that resulted in Whitall being all in and at risk for his tournament life with {5-Clubs}{5-Spades} versus the {K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} of Blumenthal.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, pairing Blumenthal's nine while also giving him a gutshot. Then fourth street brought the {5-Hearts} to push Whitall back out in front with a set of fives.

The river {K-Diamonds} improved Blumenthal to two pair but Whitall's hand was still best, and he survived.

Annette Obrestad

Jean-Yves Malherbe raised to 20,000 from the hijack seat and he found calls from Javier Montano from the button and Annette Obrestad from the big blind.

The flop came down {2-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{A-Hearts} and Obrestad checked. Malherbe put out a bet of 28,000. Montano folded but Obrestad called.

Both players checked on the {3-Spades} turn to see the {A-Diamonds} on the river. On the river Obrestad bet out 53,000 which drew an instant fold from Malherbe.

On the next hand, Malherbe opted to try his luck again with a raise to 20,000 from middle position. Action folded to Obrestad in the small blind and she three-bet to 68,000. Malherbe released again and Obrestad picked up her second pot in a row.

Kinane Flops a Full House

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

On the last hand before the table broke, Grayson Ramage slid out 200,000 on a board of {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}. Christopher Kinane moved all in for just 98,000 more, and Ramaged tanked for a bit before begrudgingly calling.

Kinane tabled {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for a flopped full house, and pulled in the monster pot to push his stack to 990,000. Ramage fell to 845,000.

Coleman's Tens Best Smith's Big Slick

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

From the cutoff seat, Maxx Coleman raised to 20,000. Joshua Smith reraised to 55,000 out of the small blind, and Coleman made the call once action moved back over to him. The dealer placed out the {Q-Spades}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop, and Smith fired 45,000. Coleman called. Both players then checked the {3-Hearts} turn card and {7-Diamonds} river card.

After Smith tabled the {A-Clubs}{K-Spades} for ace-king high, Coleman showed a pair of tens with the {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and won the pot.

Triple Barrel Bluff from van Luijk

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Yann Dion raised to 20,000 in early position, and the action folded to Dick van Luijk, who defended his big blind. The flop fell {2-Spades}{2-Clubs}{a-Hearts}, van Luijk quickly led out for 30,000, and Dion called.

The turn was the {7-Diamonds}, van Luijk fired out another 45,000, and Dion called.

The river was the {3-Hearts}, van Luijk cut out 60,000, and after holding it in his hand for 30 seconds or so, he slid the bet forward. Dion shrugged, then tossed in enough chips to call. Van Luijk paused for a moment before finally revealing {9-Spades}{6-Diamonds} for effectively nine-high. Dion tabled {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} for pocket tens, and took down the pot.

Kaverman Chipping Up

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Byron Kaverman opened to 20,000 from the hi-jack only to have Richard Robinson three-bet to 52,000 next to act. The action returned to Kaverman and he made the call as the dealer spread a {Q-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop.

Kaverman check-called 57,000 before both players checked the {10-Hearts} on the turn. The river landed the {3-Clubs} and again both players checked with Kaverman tabling his {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} to win the pot and move to 600,000 in chips.

Myers Takes Out Hicks

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

We arrived at the table with the flop spread out {3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{10-Spades}. Bradley Myers checked from under the gun plus one, before Daniel Hicks moved all in for 318,000.

The massive shove sent Myers into the tank, as he contemplated making the call. There were several moments during his two minute tank were it looked like Myers would call, but then change his mind at the last second.

He eventually made the call, and was relieved to see Hicks table his{a-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for ace-high. He then rolled over his {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for top-pair, as he sat there waiting for the ESPN crew to give the all clear to move on.

The dealer then produced the {10-Clubs} on the turn, securing Myers the hand, with the meaningless {q-Hearts} completing the board.

The hand see’s Hicks hit the rail, as Myers moves up to 1,450,000 in chips.

On the {K-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop, Jon Turner fired a bet of 53,000. Aleksejs Ponakovs called, and the turn was the {A-Spades}. Both players checked, and the dealer completed the board with the {4-Clubs}. Turner fired 83,000, and Ponakovs called.

Turner showed a pair of sevens with the {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. Ponakovs showed the {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} for a pair of aces, and he won the pot.

Augstkalns Pushes Paez Out of Pot

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Edgars Augstkalns opened to 20,000 from middle position, then Raul Paez reraised to 46,000 from a few seats down. It folded back to Augstkalns, and as he considered what he was going to do, Paez turned up the collar on his racing jacket to hide his face.

It only took Augstkalns a few seconds, however, to declare he was pushing all in, and at that Paez turned his collar back down. He watched as Augstkalns's stack was counted out, showing that the all-in was for 277,000 total.

Paez took two full minutes, then finally let his hand go.
