Chidwick Doubles Through Shack-Harris

Level 11 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Stephen Chidwick min-raised to 5,000 off his less than 20,000 chip stack. He got a call from Brandon Shack-Harris in the big blind.

On the flop of {8-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, Shack-Harris bet enough to put Chidwick all-in, and he called.

Stephen Chidwick: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Brandon Shack-Harris: {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts}

Chidwick's top set held versus Shack-Harris' straight draws and the man who sits seventh on the all-time tournament money list boosted his stack closer to its starting point.

Sandrock Forces a Fold

Level 11 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Chris Sandrock hasn't been shying away from action at his tough table.

After dropping a couple of small pots, he got into a potentially big one against Lithuanian star Dominykas Karmazinas.

On a turn board reading {4-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, Karmazinas bet 25,000 and Sandrock raised Karmazinas all-in for his last 80,000.

After some deliberation, Karmazinas folded to preserve his stack.
