Anyone's Game at Table #451

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Clayton Kalisek got his remaining 230,000 or so chips in preflop and was at risk against Christopher Brand.

Clayton Kalisek: {a-Spades}{7-Hearts}
Christopher Brand: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

The flop came {k-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Spades}, and the {10-Hearts} came on the turn to give Kalisek additional outs. One of those additional outs spiked the river with the {k-Clubs} to counterfeit Brand's nines.

Now, all four players at table #451 are close in chips and any of them could be the one to advance from the table.

Tran Turns Set to Crack Aces and Get Heads Up

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
David Tran
David Tran

Ugur Secilmis had all of his 300,000 or so chips in and at risk against David Tran preflop.

Ugur Secilmis: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
David Tran: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}

The dealer spread the clean {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop, and then put out the {6-Hearts} on the turn to change everything. The {8-Diamonds} completed the board to send Secilmis home after getting it in with the best hand in poker.

Tran was in shock at his good fortune and happily said, "Unbelievable. I don't believe it."

Meanwhile, Mikolaitis was quiet and tried to make a quick exit before coming back to claim his min-cash.

The two-outer on the turn vaulted Tran into the lead and he is now beginning heads-up play with Dominykas Mikolaitis on table #450, where only one of them will advance to the final table.
