The turn brought the {7-Hearts} and Blair checked to Konnikova again. Konnikova fired another 4,500 only to have Blair check-raise all in. Konnikova instantly called to put her tournament life on the line for her last 19,450 chips. Blair tabled {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} for a straight while Konnikova showed {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} for a set of kings.

The river brought the {7-Clubs} and Konnikova made a full house to score a full double up, while Blair fell back to a starting stack.

Schumacher Racing Ahead

Level 8 : 300/600, 100 ante

After dropping from starting stack, Terry Schumacher has quintupled his chips in the last couple of hours.

This is in spite of losing a small pot just now, where he opened on the button. Both the blinds called and the dealer put out {2-Hearts}{9-Spades}{6-Hearts}. The blinds checked and Schumacher continued for 1,500. One player called and one player folded, taking them heads up to the turn.

It was an {a-Hearts} and this time the action went check-check. Finally, the {8-Spades} came on the river. Again both players checked and Schumacher folded when he saw he was against {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} for a pair of eights.

Boeree Continues to Chip Up

Level 8 : 300/600, 100 ante
Liv Boeree
Liv Boeree

Liv Boeree found herself another good spot to gather some chips and continue to build a stack. There was a raise to 1,300 from under the gun and the hijack three-bet to 4,200. Boeree was on the button and put in another four-bet to 10,000. The initial raiser folded but the hijack called.

The flop came {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and the hijack check-called a bet of 5,000 from Boeree. The turn brought the {k-Spades} and the hijack checked again. Boeree moved all in for around 24,000 and her opponent quickly slid his cards to the muck.

Kozlov Puts Schindler in the Think Tank

Level 8 : 300/600, 100 ante

There was around 20,000 in the middle already and the board read {a-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{2-Spades}{7-Diamonds}. Martin Kozlov led out for 11,000 from the big blind and Jake Schindler made the call in position.

The river brought the {5-Clubs} and Kozlov jammed all in for 30,625. Schindler asked for a count and then went deep into the tank. He thought for several minutes, playing with his chips and trying to come to a decision.

Schindler eventually splashed in the chips to call and Kozlov rolled over {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for just a pair of fives. Schindler tabled {a-Spades}{q-Hearts} to scoop the pot and move over the 100,000 chip mark.
