Jordan Young is providing an entertaining presence at his table, and he just doubled up and scored a knockout on a hand, contending afterward that he got the chips in bad.

Young put a 5,000 bet from the hijack into a pot that appeared to be about 7,500. His opponent went all in for his last 26,800, and Young started agonizing over the spot.

"I need two minutes and 45 seconds to figure this one out, sorry guys," Young said.

After just about that amount of time, Young made the call, just barely having his opponent covered.

Jordan Young: {4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{7-Spades}

Board: {10-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}

The opponent was ahead with his two pair {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{7-Hearts} on the turn, but Young still had equity with his heart flush draw and a pair of fours. The {9-Hearts} came in on the river, doubling Young and sending his opponent to the rail.

Varnell Eliminated by Jenkins

Robert E. Jenkins raised to 800 under the gun, and the hijack called along with the button. Craig Varnell, in the small blind, moved all in for his last 2,400. Jenkins reshoved for about 14,000 and the hijack and the button folded.

Craig Varnell: {q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Robert E. Jenkins: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The runout was {7-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} and Jenkins claimed the pot with his set, eliminating Varnell.

Roberts, Levi Battle it Out

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante

Lauren Roberts and Shahar Levi went head-to-head on back-to-back hands, with each player winning a hand.

Roberts opened from under the gun, Levi three-bet to 2000, and Roberts came back over the top with a four-bet to 6,700, sending Levi into the tank briefly before folding. Roberts showed {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} and took down the blinds plus Levi's bet.

On the very next hand, the two players went at it again, with Levi opening and Roberts calling in the big blind. The action checked through the flop and turn, and Roberts made a 900-chip bet on the river with the board showing {q-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}{7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}. Levi called and showed {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, and his ace-high hero call was good against Roberts' {k-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.

Korsog Takes From Kornuth

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante

Chance Kornuth opened to 700 under the gun and Torrey Korsog, on the cutoff, three-bet to 2,000. Action folded back to Kornuth who added the remainder to call.

A flop reading {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}{6-Clubs} was dealt and Kornuth checked. Korsog fired 2,500 and Kornuth check-called.

The turn was the {k-Hearts} and was checked around to the {7-Diamonds} river. Kornuth threw in a bet of 4,200 and Korsog snap-called. Kornuth tabled {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} but that wasn't good enough as Korsog showed {a-Hearts}{k-Spades} to win the pot.

"You didn't want to double up?" asked Kornuth jokingly.

"Obviously not!" responded Korsog.
