Julien Martini raised to 2,600 from the cutoff and the big blind three-bet to 7,600. Martini called.

The flop came {10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} and Martini called 11,000 from his opponent. The turn was the {9-Spades} and the big blind check-called 18,000.

The river was the {10-Hearts} and was checked to Martini who bet 40,000.

"That's a big bet," said the big blind before calling for over half his remaining stack.

Martini tabled {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} for a straight, with the big blind open-folding {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}.

Milano All In Against Gathy

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

In a preflop raising war, Ken Milano committed the rest of his stack from the big blind against Michael Gathy in the small blind. Gathy had Milano covered, and both players tabled their hands.

Ken Milano {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Michael Gathy {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

Milano was in the lead, and when the flop came {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades}, both players had flopped a set.

Gathy was after just one card in the deck, hoping for the case nine to make quads.

The turn was the {8-Clubs} and the river {4-Diamonds}. Milano doubled up and increased his stack with the better flopped set.

The river came out a {q-Diamonds} and the initial bettor checked to Mateos who moved all-in for 8,700 which elicited a fold from the opponent, giving Mateos the pot.

Seller Buys A Miracle

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action was picked up on the turn with 13,000 in the pot on a {2-Hearts}{9-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts} board. Jason Seller was at risk for 15,300 and needed help against a late position player.

Seller held {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} against his opponent's {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} set, and needed to make a set of his own or a straight to stay alive.

The {10-Spades} was just that and Seller doubled up.
