Foxen Loses a Race

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Alex Foxen had an opponent all in and at risk preflop with the {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} racing against the {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}. Foxen found an ace on a {2-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop but that gave his opponent a gutter-ball which they hit when the {4-Spades} hit the turn. Foxen was drawing to a chop but the {7-Spades} wasn't any help and Foxen slid 37,200 across the table.

Harwood Chopped Down by Queens

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

The player in late position opened to 5,200 and Loni Harwood three-bet to 12,000 in the cutoff. The action folded back around to her opponent who four-bet shoved for 38,000. Harwood called.

Loni Harwood: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and Harwood was forced to pay the double up.

No Hand-For-Hand Needed

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

As play was halted at each table with the bubble looming, four players were eliminated around the room thus the need for hand-for-hand play was negated.

The remaining players have reached the money.
