Emmett and Burns Chop Against Shchemelev

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
Kahle Burns
Kahle Burns

Randall Emmett raised to 17,500 first to act and Kahle Burns called in the cutoff, as did Vladimir Shchemelev on the button and the big blind. On the {a-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop, the big blind check-folded to a pot-sized bet of Emmett for 72,500, the shove of Burns for 73,000 and the raise of Shchemelev.

Emmett also came along and called all in for his last 96,000 to create a three-way all in.

Kahle Burns: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{9-Spades}
Randall Emmett: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Vladimir Shchemelev: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

The {q-Diamonds} turn ad {j-Diamonds} river run out ensured that no player would bust and Shchemelev let out some curse words in Russian. Emmett and Burns chopped the main pot and Emmett got the additional 23,000 off Shchemelev.

Laplante Can't Fill Up

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Ryan Laplante got his last 130,000 in from the hijack on a {3-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} board, and Todd Ivens had him at risk in the big blind.

Ryan Laplante: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}
Todd Ivens: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}

Ivens was ahead with his flush, but Laplante was still live with top set. The {2-Hearts} turn and {6-Hearts} river failed to deliver a boat to Laplante, and he hit the rail.
