Xi Doubles Through Beylin

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Ming Xi was all in for 650,000 from the small blind when we arrived at his table but his {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} was dominated by the {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} of Konstantin Beylin.

The {8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{10-Spades} brought nothing for Xi but he whipped out his phone to record the river card and it was the {q-Spades} to give him a double.

Cordell Rakes One In With a Turned Set

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Catching action on a flop board of {J-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs} with three players involved in the hand and Joey Fabre put out a bet of 225,000. Mike Cordell called from the cutoff while the third player in the hand folded.

The river was the {10-Hearts} and Fabre checked this time. Cordell put out a bet of 350,000 and Fabre didn't waste too long calling. Cordell showed {2-Spades}{2-Hearts} and his turned set was good for him to scoop the pot.

"I didn't know you were calling," Cordell said after the hand to justify his play. "If I had known you were calling I would've never put another chip in the pot. But I thought I had him beat still."

Hector Dominguez-Depaz: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}
Stanley Lee: {K-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The {8-Clubs} on the turn did give Lee a whole slew of extra outs, but the river was the {10-Spades} and that wasn't one of them. Dominguez-Depaz collected the pot, chipping up to around four million while Lee hit the rail.
