Ace on the River for Garvin

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

In the first hand back from break, Kent Niemeier got his last 26,700 all in preflop holding {q-Clubs}{q-Spades} against the {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} of Garrett Garvin. They saw a flop of {j-Spades}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and Niemeier's pocket queens maintained the lead.

The turn {4-Hearts} was no help to Garvin, but he paired his ace on the river when the {a-Clubs} completed the board sending Niemeier to the rail.

Ladines Eliminates Namat

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Josh Ladines raised to 2,300 from early position and Nick Schwarmann called. A player in middle position called and Salim Namat moved all in for 19,300 from the button. With the action back on Ladines, he reshoved all in for about 60,000 and the rest of the table folded.

Ladines turned over {q-Clubs}{q-Spades} and Namat was at risk holding {k-Spades}{q-Spades}. The board ran out {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Ladines scored the knockout.

Failla Flushes Away Bouchard

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Will Failla
Will Failla

There was about 40,000 already in the main pot on the river on a board reading {9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}. Daniel Brouchard pushed his stack of 25,000 all in and Will "The Thrill" Failla snap-called.

Brouchard turned over {10-Spades}{9-Spades} for a ten-high flush but Faillia had better tabling {q-Spades}{j-Spades} for a queen-high flush. Brouchard was sent to the rail and Failla is chipping up early here on Day 2.

Chong Takes From Bianchi

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

There were about 18,000 chips in the pot and the board read {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades} when we got to the table. Victor Chong had checked from the small blind and Chase Bianchi bet 8,500 from middle position. Chong called.

The {6-Diamonds} fell on the river and both players checked. Chong flipped over {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, Bianchi mucked, and the dealer pushed the pot Chong's way.

Hellmuth Doubles Through Guan

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Phil Hellmuth

Phil Hellmuth raised to 3,000 from middle position and Ricky Guan reraised to 7,500. It folded back to Hellmuth who went deep into the tank and after more than a minute he moved all in for 11,900. Guan quickly called turning over {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} and Hellmuth showed {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}.

The dealer spread the {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}{8-Hearts} flop and Guan picked up a flush draw as well as counterfeit outs to go along with his over cards. The turn {4-Spades} was no help to Guan and Hellmuth was just one river card away from the double-up. The {2-Clubs} completed the board and Hellmuth faded the river to survive.
