Armen Kalajian raised to 85,000 from the cutoff and Kevin Gerhart shoved in the big blind for 520,000. Kalajian contemplated for a while and then made the call.

Kevin Gerhart: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Armen Kalajian: {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{k-Clubs} for Kalajian to hit a pair of kings immediately.

The turn was the {10-Diamonds} to not change things and Gerhart got up from his chair.

The river completed the board with the {7-Spades} for Gerhart to hit a set of sevens to stay alive.

Sleeth Doubles Through Koren

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Artur Koren three-bet pre-flop from the small blind after an initial raise from the button.

Ashley Sleeth then moved all in over the top from the big blind for her remaining 305,000 which folded out the button and Koren quickly called.

Sleeth needed help with her {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} trailing the {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} of Koren. The flop gave Sleeth the help needed when it came {k-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, her top pair taking the lead. The turn was the {4-Hearts} and the {9-Spades} on the river secured Sleeth's double up.

Kalajian Felts Lemco

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Calvin Anderson checked a {10-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop from the big blind, and Armen Kalajian bet 150,000 into a pot of around 320,000 from early position. Ronald Lemco jammed for 375,000 in the hijack, and Anderson paused for a moment before folding. Kalajian quickly called.

Ronald Lemco: {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Armen Kalajian: {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

"Pull the trigger, man, pull it!" Kalajian told Anderson.

Lemco couldn't improve on a {7-Diamonds} turn or {3-Spades} river, and Kalajian scored the knockout with his two pair.

Rice Flops Quads to Triple Up

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

In a three-way all in. Raymond Rice held {4-}{4-} up against one opponent with {7-}{7-} and Eli Laufer who had {a-}{q-}.

The flop would be gin for Rice as it came an astonishing {4-}{5-}{4-} to basically assure a triple up for Rice. The turn {j-} and river {9-} eliminated Laufer as the player with two sevens picked up the side pot and Rice tripled up.

David Valden was in the process of sending all of his chips over to the stack of Anthony Spinella on a board that read {3-}{8-}{4-}{7-}{q-}.

Valden's {4-}{4-} set had been vanquished by the {8-}{8-} of Spinella to end his tournament.

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Frank Bonacci raised to 100,000 from the hijack, and Michael Hauptman three-bet shoved for around 300,000 in the big blind. Bonacci didn't look thrilled but tossed in a call.

Michael Hauptman: {j-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Frank Bonacci: {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

Bonacci took away some of Hauptman's outs when the {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{9-Clubs} flop gave Bonacci a Broadway draw, and sure enough, the {j-Spades} turn gave Bonacci the nuts and left Hauptman dead to the {3-Clubs} river.

Michael Miller: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Mike Vanier: {a-Spades}{9-Clubs}

Miller's queens held up on a {3-Spades}{j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} board, and he took down the pot.
