Big Call Fosters Hope

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

On a completed board of {2-Spades}{5-Spades}{8-Spades}{k-Spades}{7-Spades}, Kazuhiko Yotsushika moved all in for 139,000, and sent his heads-up opponent, Lucas Foster, deep into the tank.

After five full minutes, table sheriff Scott Seiver called the clock and Foster was given a thirty-second countdown.

Soon after, Foster shoved his chips into the middle to call, and got the best news any poker player could hear, "Nice hand, sir," as Yotsushika turned over {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts} to play the board.

"Yes!" shouted Foster as he proudly turned over {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for a jack-high flush to win the pot. Yotsushika exited the tournament as Foster's chip stack grew to 500,000.

Paur Doubles Through Plante

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Jerry Wong raised to 12,000 in the hijack and was called by Taylor Paur in the cutoff and Santiago Plante in the big blind. The flop came {a-Clubs}{5-Spades}{4-Spades} and the action checked around to the {q-Hearts} on the turn.

Paur was the first player to take a stab at the pot with a bet of 16,000 on the turn. Plante called and Wong stepped aside. The river was the {3-Spades} and Plante checked again. Paur counted out a bet of 42,000 and Plante check-raised all in. Paur wasted little time before calling off his stack of 129,000. Plante showed {a-Spades}{10-Clubs} but Paur revealed the {10-Spades}{9-Spades} for a flush to double up.

Meanwhile, at another table, Pavel Plesuv was seen collecting a double up from Chino Rheem after making a set of eights. Plesuv doubled up to over 1,000,000, the first player in the tournament to reach seven figures.

Gregory Jensen raised it up on the button and Pedro Padilha three-bet shoved all in for around 200,000 in the small blind. Jensen called and they were off to the races.

Pedro Padilha: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Gregory Jensen: {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}

The flop of {8-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs} left Jensen in the lead with his pair of sixes. The {2-Clubs} on the turn and the {4-Hearts} on the river were no help to Padilha who was eliminated.
