Santamaria Takes From Baumann
Level 11
: 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Gaelle Baumann raised it 3,200 from under-the-gun and was called by Norberto Santamaria from his small blind and the player in the big blind.
After both Santamaria and the big-blind player checked over to Baumann on the 
flop, she continued for 3,500. Santamaria then quickly put check-raised to 12,000, which got folds from the big-blind player and Baumann.

Glines 3-Bets His Button
Level 11
: 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
A player in early position raised it to 4,100. When action folded around to Shawn Glines on the button, he three-bet shoved his last 19,000. Both blinds folded and the original raiser thought about it for a quick moment before he folded, which gave Glines some much-needed chips.

The Kicker Plays
Level 10
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Action picked up on the turn on a board reading 
, but post-flop action replayed courtesy of Mark Levenson.
In a headsup pot, the player in the big blind checked the flop and Levenson bet 4,000. The big-blind player then check-raised all in, Levenson called and was all in for his tournament life.
Mark Levenson: 
Big-Blind Player: 
Both players had flopped top pair and turned trip jacks, and Levenson's king-kicker had him in the lead, but he could still lose to a ten or chop with an eight or six. The 
river secured his double-up.

Dube Does Some Damage
Level 9
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Action was picked up on a board reading 
in a headsup pot with about 60,000 in the middle.
First to act from his blind, Mark Dube checked the 
river, which was followed by a check behind by his opponent and both players tabled their hands. Dube saw that even though it wasn't the best river card for his hand, his two pair was good and the dealer shipped him the good-sized pot.
