Acker & Klodnicki Stay Alive

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

With a board reading {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{2-Spades}{7-Hearts}, Timothy Acker bet 2,000 from the big blind and Chino Rheem called. Chris Klodnicki then raised all in for 3,900 total, which prompted Acker to three-bet all in for 5,200. Rheem called to put both players at risk and the cards were turned up.

Acker: {a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Rheem: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Klodnicki: {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

The {6-Clubs} completed the board on the river, which meant Acker took down the side pot with a pair of aces and a 6-4-3-2-A low. That same low earned him half the main pot, while Klodnicki got the high half with the {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} for two pair.

McMillan and Rechnitzer Chop Up Klein

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Daniel Klein got his last 3,300 all in preflop and was one of four players to see a flop of {10-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}. Ronald McMillan checked from the big blind and Brian Rast did the same from the cutoff. Both players called a bet from George Rechnitzer on the button.

All three active players then checked the {8-Clubs} turn, and then the flop action repeated itself on the {K-Clubs} river. The dealer was a little too quick scooping up the cards, but we do know that Rechnitzer and McMillan ended up chopping the pot. Rast mucked, and Klein did the same before taking his leave from the tournament.

Selbst Takes a Hit

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

We picked up the action on the turn with a board reading {j-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}. Vanessa Selbst checked from the big blind and called when her opponent in the cutoff tossed out a bet. Selbst opted to lead out for 2,400 on the {A-Clubs} river, and her opponent called with the {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for aces and jacks with a 6-4-3-2-A low. It was good enough to scoop and Selbst simply sent her cards to the muck.

Glantz Gets the Best of Finne

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Bruce Yamron opened for 2,400 and was met by a three-bet to 3,600 by Timothy Finne, who left himself just 300 behind. The small blind called, as did Matt Glantz in the big, and Yamron tossed in the additional 1,200.

Two checks on the {3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} flop saw Yamron bet 1,200, Finne called off for 300, and both blinds called. All three active players checked the {3-Hearts} turn and Glantz bet 2,400 after the small blind checked the {J-Diamonds} river. Only Yamron called, but he mucked when Glantz tabled the {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs} for kings and threes.

Finne was obliged to show his hand, which was the {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{q-Spades}. It was a good flop for Finne, but a bad run out would send him out the door in Level 11.

One for Shack-Harris

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

With a board reading {q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{j-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, Brandon Shack-Harris bet 2,400 from the small blind and the player in the big blind called. The under-the-gun player folded, and it was heads-up action to the {K-Hearts} river. Shack-Harris bet another 2,400, the big blind called, and Shack-Harris tabled the {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{8-Spades} for top two pair. It was good as the big blind sent his cards to the muck.

Some for Yamron

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

After a player in middle position raised, Brian Rast and Ronald McMillan called from late position and the button, respectively. The small blind came along and Bruce Yamron called from the big blind to make it five-way action to the {7-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop.

The small blind checked, Yamron bet and the middle-position player called. Rast raised, McMillan called, and the small blind folded. The other two players called and then all four players checked the {6-Diamonds} turn.

When the {7-Spades} completed the board on the river, Yamron led out with a bet, the middle-position player raised; both Rast and McMillain folded. Yamron called with the {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for a full house, which was good enough for the high. The middle-position player then showed the {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a low to take half the pot.
