Admon Cracks Aces to Survive

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Salim Admon was seen collecting a double up as his {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} had cracked the {a-}{a-} of his opponent.

The board was showing {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{q-}{10-}{3-} as the dealer swept it away, with the eight coming right on the flop to keep Admon alive with a healthy stack.

Dragon Burns Through Kings

Level 20 : 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Larry Dragon was all in and at risk holding the {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and was in big trouble vs the {k-Hearts}{k-Spades} of Kevin Wang.

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} to look bleak for Dragon. The turn as the {10-Hearts} and the river the {10-Spades} as the dealer dealt them so quickly that dragon barely knew what hit him as he was suddenly saved by runner-runner trips to commit regicide against Wang's kings.

No Big Blind Special for Liu

Level 20 : 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
JJ Liu
JJ Liu

JJ Liu was all in from the big blind after a {4-Spades}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop and was called by the player under the gun.

JJ Liu: {8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Liu flopped a pair of deuces but was still trialing her opponents pair of kings.

The {a-Clubs} turn brought possible chop outs if a three were to fall on the river, but the {6-Spades} completed the board and ended her tournament.
