Jaffe Rivers Flush vs. Zinno's Top Set, Clinches Quarterfinal Place

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante
Jonathan Jaffe
Jonathan Jaffe

Jonathan Jaffe has become the first player to clinch a place in the quarterfinals after eliminating Anthony Zinno.

Zinno opened the action to 8,000 and Jaffe threw in a three-bet to 30,000. Zinno popped it up to 71,000 and Jaffe called.

The flop came {5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{k-Spades}. After Jaffe's check, Zinno took about 30 seconds before tapping the table himself.

With the {a-Spades} on the turn, Jaffe checked once more and Zinno opted to put out a bet to 75,000. Jaffe called and they were off to the river.

The {6-Spades} completed the board and after Jaffe's check, Zinno fired for 250,000 of his remaining 355,000 chips. After about a minute, Jaffe went all in. Zinno was visibly not a fan of Jaffe's shove but was resigned to calling and showing his {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}.

Jaffe showed his {j-Spades}{10-Spades} and took home the win.

Stanford and Kennedy Double Up

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

William Stanford raised to 7,000 on the button and Dario Sammartino made it 30,000 in the big blind. Stanford responded with a four-bet to 87,000 and Sammartino five-bet shoved all in. Stanford quickly called off his stack of 418,500 and the cards were tabled.

William Stanford: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
Dario Sammartino: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Spades}{7-Hearts} and Stanford held to double up through Sammartino.

At the same table, Patrick Kennedy had shoved all in for 464,000 on a completed board of {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{7-Spades} with only 130,000 in the middle. Chance Kornuth dipped into the tank after setting aside the allotted calling chips. After a few minutes passed, Kornuth finally made the call and Kennedy turned over {j-Spades}{10-Hearts} for the nuts to also double up.
