Fischer Turns Two Pair

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Joshua Gottesman opened to 40,000 from middle position, and Bastian Fischer called on the button.

The flop came {4-Hearts}{k-Spades}{8-Spades}, and Gottesman slowed down with a check. Fischer fired for 55,000 and got a call. The turn came {q-Hearts}, and Gottesman check-called a 135,000 bet from Fischer.

The river brought the {a-Hearts}, and both players checked. Gottesman asked Fischer if he had a queen, which he did with the {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} for two pair. Gottesman showed the {q-Spades} as he mucked.

Barbero's Straight Over Straight Sinks Vuillemot

Matthew Vuillemot showed down {7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} on a board of {8-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, but it wasn't good enough to top Nacho Barbero's {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} in a battle of opposite ends of the straight.

Barbero has been among the chip leaders througout the day, and he's still sitting strong at 1,250,000 chips.

Andy Hills

A player on the button raised to 45,000, and Andrew Hills three-bet to 155,000 on the big blind. The button called, and the flop came {3-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}.

Hills thought it over for awhile and checked, and the button checked back. The turn brought the {7-Diamonds}, and Hills thought it over once again. After a few moments Hills started assembling chips for a bet, and his opponent mucked before he could even get the bet into the pot.

A player from middle position open jammed for 215,000 and Koen Breed called from the cutoff.

Koen Breed: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Opponent: {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Breed's opponent flopped a gutterball {j-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{9-Diamonds} and turned a pair {k-Clubs} but the {j-Spades} on the river sealed the deal, and after starting the day with only 12 big blinds, Breed is now over 1,000,000 in chips.

Tang Hooks Opponent

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

A player from middle position opened to 32,000 and action folded around to Jason Tang who moved all in for 83,00 from the cutoff, the initial raiser called.

Jason Tang: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The flop came {7-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts} giving Tang's opponent a gutter ball draw to the nine.

Tang turned a set with the {j-Clubs} and all he needed to do was dodge a nine with one card to go.

The river fell the {k-Diamonds} and Tang, who has been grinding a short stack most of the day, doubled up right before the dinner break.
