Level 14 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Mike Thorpe

Mike Thorpe raised in early position and only got a call from Jason Somerville in the big blind.

On the {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{10-Hearts} flop, Somerville led into Thorpe, who called and said, "I'll get you on the next street".

After Somerville gave him the opportunity with a check on the {2-Clubs} turn, Thorpe opted instead to check back.

Somerville bet once more on the {8-Diamonds} river, and Thorpe called.

Somerville showed {k-Clubs}{k-Spades} and Thorpe mucked, saying in defeat, "I had a pocket pair as well".

John Racener and Yuri Dzivielevski engaged in a preflop raising war with Racener originally raising from the button into Dzivielevski's small blind.

Four bets each would go in before a flop of {j-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts} was spread. Dzivielevski check-called a bet from Racener, then checked again on the {4-Clubs} turn.

This time after Racener bet, Dzivielevski folded, sending Racener's stack toward 600,000 chip territory.

Level 14 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

John Racener raised from under the gun and called when Yuri Dzivielevski, next to act, three-bet.

Level 14 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Not long after Yuri Dzivielevski took down a pot against Terrence Chan to top the 600,000 chip mark, Brian Rast won a large pot from Day 1 chip leader Eric Kurtzman to put him near the top of the leaderboard.

In a battle of the blinds, Kurtzman led the turn on a board of {5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}. Rast raised him, and Kurtzman called.

On the river {3-Spades}, Kurtzman check-called a bet from Rast who showed {q-Hearts}{4-Spades} for a full house, while Kurtzman mucked his cards.

Eveslage Takes Three Straight Pots, Busts Kitagawa

Level 14 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Chad Eveslage
Chad Eveslage

Chad Eveslage more than doubled his stack by winning the last three hands.

In the first, he fired all three streets on a board of {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{2-Spades} against Terrence Chan. Chan called on the flop and turn, but folded the river.

Eveslage raised again the next hand, and Kyle Kitagawa re-raised from the small blind leaving only a few chips behind. Kitagawa bet the {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop and Eveslage called, then checked the {a-Spades} turn.

Eveslage bet enough to put Kitagawa all in, and Kitagawa eventually called with {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} for a gutshot straight draw. Eveslage had {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for the flopped set, and Kitagawa headed to the exit when he missed his draw on the river.

Then, Eveslage raised and called a three-bet from Christopher Chung to his immediate left. Eveslage check-called the {9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} flop, and both players checked the {a-Clubs} turn and the {2-Spades} river.

Eveslage showed {a-}{k-} to take the pot with two pair, aces and tens.
