Queens Hold for Manguiat

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Action was picked up with both Doug Manguiat and his opponent all in. Manguiat had his opponent covered, with the effective stack being around 30,000.

Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Doug Manguiat: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Manguiat was out in front, but needed to fade his opponents ace. The {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-} runout ensured that he did so successfully, and he scooped the pot while his opponent was sent to the rail just a few minutes into the final level of the night.

Pattersson Takes it Down

Level 10 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Action was picked up after the late position player reraised from 5,500 to an all-in shove of 30,600. Action folded back around to Jan Pattersson in middle position. With his opponent covered, he made the call.

Opponent: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Jan Pattersson: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

Pattersson was already ahead, but only moved further out in front as the runout came {5-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, giving him the nut flush. He collected the pot, adding to his stack which has grown to be among the largest in the field, while his opponent departed for the rail.

The {j-Spades} landed on the turn and the middle position moved all in for 61,500, MacFarland called.

Middle Position: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Christopher MacFarland: {8-Spades}{6-Spades}

MacFarland turned a flush whilst the middle position had two pair. The {8-Clubs} river was no help to the middle position player and MacFarland scooped in a massive pot.

Low Blow on River

Level 10 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

After a raise to 4,000 got called by four players, the {2-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop was checked around before the {8-Clubs} came on the turn.

Kam Low, the small blind, led out for 12,200. Once the big blind and early position players folded, action landed on the middle position player. He took some time in making his decision, fully counting out his stack before moving that stack, worth 22,400, into the middle. Low thought for a moment or two before making the call.

Opponent: {6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Kam Low: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Low was behind, and would need to pair one of his overcards in order to secure the pot. He got exactly what he needed when the {q-Clubs} river hit the table, giving him top pair. Low added the pot to his impressive chip stack which is among the largest in the field.

Juliano Busts Kings to Double Up

Level 10 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The heads-up action was picked up on the flop with 16,000 in the pot and a {10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} flop.

Mike Juliano moved all in as the small stack with 35,300. His opponent, sitting just to his left, took several minutes, in visible distress over whether or not to call. Eventually, he found the call.

Mike Juliano: {5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Juliano was behind, but he just needed to catch a single diamond to jump ahead. The {10-Spades} turn was of no help, but the river delivered the {9-Diamonds}, completing the flush for Juliano, good enough for him to scoop the pot and double his stack.
