Garvin Stacks Jordison

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Garrett Garvin raised from under the gun and Angela Jordison, who was next to act, got her 70,000-chip stack in the middle. Garvin had her covered by a wide margin.

Garrett Garvin: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
Angela Jordison: {A-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}

Garvin had the edge with his aces and Jordison needed help from the deck to survive. After the board ran out {K-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{10-Hearts} to give Garvin aces full, he took the pot to end Jordison's tournament.

Stockfish Shoves the Flop in a Three-Bet Pot

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Jason Stockfish opened the hijack to 21,000 and Lee Watkinson called in the cutoff. Erle Mankin, however, squeezed from the button, blasting 80,000. Stockfish called out of position and Watkinson got out of their way.

The flop came {Q-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{4-Spades} and Stockfish didn't wait for anything. He announced a pot-sized bet, moving all in for 186,000. Stockfish had Mankin just about covered and the latter folded his hand after a minute or so.

Gamble Forces a Fold

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Nathan Gamble
Nathan Gamble

Defending champion Nathan Gamble raised to 18,000 from early position and Andrew Yeh called from the big blind.

The flop came {Q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and both players checked.

The turn brought the {3-Spades}, Yeh bet 21,000, and Gamble called.

The {3-Clubs} hit the river and Yeh bet again, 26,000 this time. Gamble shoved for 90,000 and Yeh went into the tank.

"Check," said Yeh after three minutes of thought.

Yeh eventually tossed his cards into the muck and Gamble took the pot.

Elezra Tackles Linde Before the Break

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

On the last hand before the break, Dylan Linde (middle) was all in for about 50,000 and Eli Elezra found aces in the cutoff.

Linde's separated his hands per two suits, exposing {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Spades} while Elezra had {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}.

The {9-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop gave Elezra a flush draw but Linde picked up his own flush draw on the {Q-Spades} turn. However, the {K-Hearts} river was a complete brick and Linde was eliminated.

Minor but Important Win for DNegs

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

Daniel Negreanu was in the big blind and we caught the action coming to the {7-Hearts}{9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} turn with both players having 14,000 in front of them from the previous street. Negreanu's opponent was Shiva Dudani, sitting two seats to Negreanu's left.

They checked the betting round and the {Q-Spades} river discarded the low draw. Negreanu decided to bet 27,000. Dudani let it go and Negreanu took down the small pot.
