Two All-ins, One Double-up

Blinds: 500/100/100

This level saw the following two hands where short-stacked players survived to play another hand.

In the first, Ian "APokerJoker2" Steinman raised to 6,250, Shankar "burgersssss" Pillai shoved all in, and Steinman called off. After both hands were revealed it was obvious a chopped pot was coming unless one of the players made a flush, which didn't happen on the {3-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{8-Hearts}{9-Hearts} runout.

Ian "APokerJoke2" Steinman: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Shankar "burgersssss" Pillai: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

In the second hand, Josh "GN_150" Reichard shoved his last 10,598 from under the gun, and when action folded around to fellow Wisconsinite Richard "unclebets" Bai in the big blind, he made the call.

Josh "GN_150" Reichard: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Richard "unclebets" Bai: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

Reichard would need a favorable runout to stay alive, which he got after it came down {6-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}.
