We arrive to Table 9 in time to see Erik Seidel sweeping up all of his opponent's chips. Seidel had {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{3-Spades}{7-Clubs}, good for queens and threes, and we didn't see his opponent's hand before the dealer mucked it.

Amnon Filippi took a pot off Dan Heimiller.
Amnon Filippi took a pot off Dan Heimiller.

Amnon Filippi and Dan Heimiller already had a few bets in front of themselves in a heads-up pot. Filippi bet fourth street with the board reading {8-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{5-Spades}, and Heimiller called. The river was the {7-Clubs}, and both players checked.

Filippi flipped {a-Clubs}{7-Spades}, followed by {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} for a pair of aces and a live ace for low.

"I had a pair and a flush draw..." Heimiller trailed off as he studied his cards. "And I think I still have a pair and a flush draw."

He placed them face down, and Filippi scooped the pot.

Maria Ho lost a pot but still has a solid stack.

Maria Ho called out of the big blind after a cutoff opponent raised, and she check-called bets on every street. The community came {9-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Clubs}, and the cutoff showed {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} for the nut flush.

Zolotow Goes From Quartering to Quartered

Level 9 : 300/600, 0 ante

With the board reading {7-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, Steve Zolotow bet from early position. His opponent on the button raised, and Zolotow raised all in for 1,100, 100 less than the next raise. His opponent called.

Zolotow: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
Button: {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{4-Hearts}

Zolotow looked likely to quarter his opponent, as both had the nut low but Zolotow had kings for high. The button binked the {3-Clubs} on the river to make trips though, and Zolotow was the one quartered.

Raichura Felts One

Level 10 : 400/800, 0 ante

We found Kal Raichura considering a preflop raise from an opponent who was short-stacked.

"You can fold now," Raichura's opponent joked. "I would not be mad if you folded now."

Raichura called though, and the flop came {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. Raichura's opponent bet, and Raichura raised. His opponent called off the remainder of his stack.

Raichura: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Opponent: {a-}{2-}{4-}{5-}

Raichura's opponent had seen one of the worst possible flops for his baby-filled hand, and the {6-Clubs} turn and {4-Diamonds} river did not bring enough improvement to overtake Raichura. Raichura appears to be the chip leader with about 30 minutes left.
