Big Stacks in the Brasilia Room
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Tony Parille called an all-in from the button, sitting on the small blind with the 
flop showing. The at-risk player went all-in with his last 33,000, and it looked like Parille's 
was in bad shape against the opponent's 
.
The 
came on the turn, however, and Parille couldn't hold back his excitement when the straight came in. The hand put Parille up to 235,000.
One of the biggest stacks in the room, David Elet, is seated three seats over to Parille's left, and Elet is sitting on 579,500 in chips.

: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

In early position, Hellmuth and an opponent on the big blind arrived at the river on a very dynamic 
board. The big blind led out for 10,000 and Hellmuth raised to 37,000 and got the call.
"Straight flush," said Hellmuth as he tabled the 
and scooped the pot.

Templeton Picks Off Another Bluff
Level 15
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Players at Pavilion White #132 keep trying to bluff John Templeton, and Templeton keeps making the right calls.
In middle position, Templeton checked to an opponent on the button, with the board showing 
and significant chips already in the pot. The button shoved for 49,000, and Templeton went into the tank once again.
Once again, Templeton made the right call after thinking it over for a couple of minutes, showing 
to beat his opponent's 
missed flush draw.
