"I'm Not Trying to Nit-Roll You"

Level 24 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Kevin Glenn raised to 115,000 in middle position and Joseph Linville made the call in the small blind.

The dealer spread a flop of {q-Hearts}{j-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and they both checked quickly. The {7-Diamonds} hit the turn and Linville led out for 100,000, and Glenn made the call.

The river was the {9-Clubs} and Linville continued to fire, this time putting 150,000 in the middle. Glenn took about three seconds before saying, "I'm not trying to nit-roll you here, but I can't fold. Do you have ace-queen?" And as he was talking he tabled {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs} for a pair of queens and Linville mucked his hand.

Wilkerson Sucks Out on Tice; Eliminates Jain

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Dylan Wilkerson
Dylan Wilkerson

Shashank Jain shoved in early position for 315,000 and Dylan Wilkerson three-bet to 600,000. The action folded around to Landon Tice in the big blind and he announced all-in.

Wilkerson had 110,000 behind and almost immediately when it was his turn Georgios Sotiropoulos called the clock. The floor was called over and ruled that he was entitled to some time, given his tournament life would be on the line if he called.

Another 2 minutes went by before the floor gave Wilkerson 30 seconds to act and as the clock reached three seconds Wilkerson called off his remaining chips.

Shashank Jain: {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Dylan Wilkerson: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Landon Tice: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

Tice had both players dominated before the flop of {7-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts}. The {10-Spades} on the turn paired Wilkerson's ten and gave him a flush draw and the {3-Diamonds} on the river meant he simultaneously eliminated Jain whilst doubling through Tice.
