The small blind checked a flop of {10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, and the big blind potted for 12,000. Jason Somerville made the call, and the small blind folded. A {5-Clubs} paired the board, and the small blind put his last 3,800 in. Somerville quickly called, and he tabled {9-Clubs}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for trips. His opponent was drawing dead with {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades}.

Billirakis Avoids Chop, Busts One

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

A player bet all in for about 20,000 after a {j-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop, and Steve Billirakis raised pot to knock out the two players behind him.

Billirakis: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Though a chop looked likely, the all-in player got out of his seat, and his pessimism seemed warranted when the {7-Spades} turn gave Billirakis a flush draw. The {q-Clubs} gave Billirakis the only two-pair hand that would scoop him the pot, and he collected his opponent's stack.

Greg Merson is now among the leaders.
Greg Merson is now among the leaders.

We arrived to Table 440 to see the aftermath of an all-in pot between Greg Merson and Allan Le. Jason Somerville gave us the details.

According to Somerville, multiple players saw the {a-}{10-}{3-} flop, and Greg Merson bet from button after action checked to him. Allan Le made the call before betting out 31,000 on the {5-} turn, which put two hearts on board. Merson shipped it for about 60,000 total with {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{9-Spades}, and his top two held on for the win against an unknown hand.

Perry Green paid off a bet on the end.

In one of the last hands at the previous level, Perry Green bet 6,000 on the end after one check with the board reading {4-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{2-Spades}{3-Spades}. Mark Johnson announced a raise before pushing out 16,500, and the third player quickly mucked. Green asked for the count before pushing in a calling stack. Johnson showed him {a-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for the nut flush, and Green mucked his hand. He's now in dire straits with under 10 big blinds.

Shack-Harris Doubles Through Fritz

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Brandon Shack-Harris just doubled through rival Bill Fritz when Shack-Harris and Fritz both called a bet from Nick Guagenti on a {j-Spades}{q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop. After the {a-Diamonds} turned, Shack-Harris came alive with a pot bet of 33,000, which Fritz quickly called. Guagenti got out of the way, and Shack-Harris bet his last 2,000 in the dark. Fritz called after the {3-Clubs} came on the river, but he couldn't beat Shack-Harris' {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} for three queens.
