Mash Makes Two Pair to Double Through Zhou

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

The action folded around to Howard Mash on the button who shoved all-in for 625,000. Ting Zhou was in the big blind and hesitated for a while before announcing the call.

Howard Mash: {k-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Ting Zhou: {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Mash was behind with just king-high to Zhou's ace-high and the flop of {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs} didn't look promising. However, the {k-Diamonds} landed on the turn giving Mash a pair of kings to take the lead and the {7-Spades} on the river improved him to two pair to double up.

Mackie Four-Bet Jams

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

Terry Mackie opened to 110,000 and Wang Rong made the call next to act before Rossi Smith three-bet to 360,000. The action folded back around to Mackie who took a few moments before ripping his entire stack in the middle.

Rong couldn't fold fast enough as his cards hit the muck and Smith asked for a count. After finding out it was 1,020,000 he counted out his own chips and said, "Well, I wouldn't be out if I lose, but it sure would hurt." He gave it a few more seconds before deciding to let the hand go.

In a three-way all-in before the flop, Both Huy Nguyen and Daniel Orgil were at risk against Lance Ha. Orgil having just under 500,000 in chips while Nguyen had 520,000.

Daniel Orgil: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Lance Ha: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Huy Nguyen: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Emani Takes it on the Turn

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Jordan Bachrad opened to 85,000 under the gun, Venkata Emani called in the hijack before Scott Boxenhorn three-bet to 210,000 in the cutoff. The blinds folded and both Bachard and Emani made the call.

The dealer fanned a flop of {9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{4-Spades} and all three players checked to the {2-Diamonds} turn. Before Bachrad checked he thought about it for about 20-seconds and Emani fired out a bet of 225,000. Boxenhorn quickly got out of the way and it looked like Bachrad had a tough decision as he took another 30-seconds before throwing his hand into the muck.
