Lapossie Over a Million

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

The action started with Hungarian national Arpad Balazs opening to 15,000 and Xiao Peng made it 50,000 to go. It was folded over to Matthew Lapossie who made it 115,000. Balazs moved all in, having both players covered with over 700,000 in chips. Peng quickly folded and Lapossie couldn't get his chips into the middle fast enough as he proudly turned over the pre-flop nuts with {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}. It was a cooler for Balazs as he had {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}.

The board would run out {J-Clubs}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and the ace high flush for Lapossie was enough to give him the massive pot which moved him over the million chip mark. Balazs will have work to do but still has chips with 240,000 left after that blow.

Xiao Peng With a Big Bang

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Xiao Peng

Xiao Peng raised to 16,000 from early position and Jason Shadell called to see the {2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop. Shadell led out for 25,000 and Peng called before they went on to see the {6-Hearts} on the turn. Shadell now check-raised all in and Peng had to call 175,000 on top of her bet of 75,000.

The Canadian obliged with {Q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a flush and saw the opponent drawing dead already with {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}. The meaningless {4-Clubs} river completed the board and Peng is among the biggest stacks with less than 70 players left.
