Townsend Makes a Huge Bluff on the Bubble
Level 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Hiren Patel opened for 8,500 from the hijack and found some resistance in the big blind. Wade Townsend made it 31,000 to go, but that sure wasn't the end of it. Patel four-bet to 68,500 and Townsend five-bet to 135,000 after some thinking. Patel made the call and the two of them saw a flop in an already huge pot.
The first three community cards were 
and Townsend bet out 85,000. Patel made the call without much thinking, and the dealer burned, and turned the 
. Townsend announced all in for about 180,000. In the meantime it was the official bubble, so a lot of players gathered to check what was going on.
"You have it?" asked Patel while he tried to look Townsend in the eyes. Townsend didn't reply.
Patel eventually folded, and now Townsend did react. He gently tabled 
for a stone cold bluff and raked in the massive pot.

Gruissem Makes a Hero Call
Level 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
After three-betting Matt Waxman preflop, Philipp Gruissem tossed out a bet of 21,000 on a flop of 
. Waxman check-raised all in, wagering effectively 120,000 or so, and Gruissem tanked for the better part of five minutes before calling.
Waxman ripped over for top two pair, and Gruissem turned over 
for just bottom pair.
The 
on the turn was a brick, and the 
on the river gave Gruissem a meaningless two pair.
"Payout!" the dealer shouted, not knowing that they weren't in the money yet.
The floor quickly corrected her, and there were some giggles at the table as Gruissem collected his things and paid his masseuse. The German hit the rail short of the money, while Waxman is up over 400,000 chips.
John Racener and David Williams also exited at neighboring tables:
