Brandon Shack-Harris
Brandon Shack-Harris

With 35,000 chips already in the pot after a three-bet pre flop from the small blind versus Brandon Shack-Harris in the cutoff, a flop of {j-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{8-Clubs} came down. Brandon Shack-Harris jammed for 47,900 chips against the continuation bet from the small blind of 16,000. His opponent quickly called and cards were on their backs.

Brandon Shack-Harris: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{6-Spades}

The {5-Spades} and {10-Diamonds} turn and river didn't help his opponent and Shack-Harris now is one of the biggest stacks in the room.

Gonzalez Sailing Back Above Starting Stack On His Boat, Forcing Tafesh Out

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante
Alexander Tafesh
Alexander Tafesh

After Alexander Tafesh raised to 3,000 from the cutoff versus an under-the-gun limp, the small blind, Jose Gonzalez called. The under-the-gun player called too and they were three ways to a flop.

{4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{8-Hearts} fell and Gonzalez lead for pot in the small blind, 10,500. It folded to Tafesh who made the call.

The {4-Clubs} on the turn came in and Gonzalez jammed his last 5,500 into the pot.

''That's the worst card in the deck for me I fold on...a four or an ace. Anything else I call'', said Tafesh.

Tafesh mucked his holding and Gonzalez kindly showed him {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for a full house.

Un-Liu-cky As Beamer Doubles Up

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante
Sasha Liu
Sasha Liu

Sasha Liu, known as 'PokerSasha' was involved in a pot with Mark Beamer. She had opened from early position and had been called by the hijack before Beamer completed from the big blind.

Three of them went to a flop of {5-Spades}{j-Clubs}{q-Hearts} and Liu continued for 3,500 when checked to. The hijack got out of the way and Beamer raised to 13,000. Liu made the call.

On a {k-Spades} turn, with just 10,500 behind on Beamer's stack, Liu moved all in and Beamer swiftly called.

Mark Beamer: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Sasha Liu: {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

Liu had outs versus the set of jacks of Beamer, but a {6-Hearts} river meant she didn't improve with her two pair and open ender, doubling Beamer up.
