With 3,200 already in the pot and a board reading {9-Clubs}{q-Spades}{3-Clubs}, Tristan Wade raised all-in for 3,400 after his heads-up opponent led with a bet of 700. Wade's opponent went into the tank, eventually making the call after a few moments.

Tristan Wade: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Each player at the table was a little confused by the call but Wade was delighted. A {7-Clubs}{8-Spades} run out sent the pot to the American pro.

Stewart Flops Best to Double

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Not the start he would have liked but as Scott Stewart said after the hand, "Just call me Ricky Bobby." Stewart saw his stack dwindle to 1,750 but a recent double up has him almost back to starting.

Stewart was all-in and at risk preflop holding the {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} up against his opponent's {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}. The board ran out {q-Clubs}{7-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and although the first card they saw was a queen, a welcomed seven followed behind it and Stewart collected the pot.
