Sanders Over Six Figures

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

A player raised to 1,500 in middle position and action folded back to Scott Sanders who defended his big blind. The flop came {9-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and Sanders checked. His opponent fired a continuation-bet of 1,800 and he made the call.

Both players checked the turn {5-Hearts}, bringing the river {7-Hearts}. Sanders fired 7,000 and his opponent let his cards go. Sanders now finds himself north of 100,000 well into the final level of play for the night.

Boukai's Kings Cruise to a Double

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Jay Farber raised to 1,200 from under the gun, and Rami Boukai called in the hijack. The big blind three-bet to 5,200, and Farber called. Boukai four-bet to 18,200, sending the big blind into the tank. After two minutes, he five-bet to 80,200, enough to cover both players left in the hand. Farber quickly folded, but Boukai tanked for about a minute before calling off his last 59,600.

Rami Boukai: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

The {k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} provided Boukai with a full house, and the {q-Diamonds} turn and {a-Diamonds} river gave Boukai the double.
