Xiao Doubles Up Through Fishberg

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

On a board that read {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} Guangliang Xiao bet and was raised all in by Gregory Fishberg. Xiao immediately called and turned over {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts} which was crushing the {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades} that Fishberg held.

The dealer did not immediately realize what had happened because of the speed and silence of the actions but did collect the chips into the middle and dealt the {3-Diamonds} on the river to give Xiao an important double up.

Berger Gets River Bet Through

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

On a board of {3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Spades}{2-Clubs} Allan Berger bet 700,000 into a pot of roughly the same size. Igor Yaroshevskyy was in the tank thinking it over before folding.

"Show bluff one time" said a player at the table. But Berger did not appease the request as he raked in the pot.

A One-Man Wrecking Ball

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Kainalu McCue Unicano
Kainalu McCue Unicano

After Anthony Kazgandjian raised it up to 130,000 from early position, Graham Hiew then three-bet to 625,000. Action folded to Kainalu McCue-Unciano on the button and he made the call and Kazgandjian folded.

After Hiew checked to McCue-Unciano on the {10-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop, McCue-Unciano then led out for 400,000, which was met with a check-shove from Hiew. McCue-Unciano asked the dealer to pull in the 400,000 so that he could see how much more it was to call. The dealer confirmed an additional 1,630,000, and after some thought McCue-Unciano made the call.

Graham Hiew: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Kainalu McCue-Unciano: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

McCue-Unciano was behind, but that changed quickly when the dealer fanned the {j-Spades} on the turn and the {8-Clubs} on the river, which gave McCue-Unciano the full house and eliminated yet another opponent. Also, worth noting is that McCue-Unciano also eliminated Jeremy Kramer from the tournament just a few hands later.
