Josh Arieh: 10♦10♥
Joshua Reichard: A♠7♠

Arieh was ahead, and the 2♥4♠J♥7♦K♣ runout kept his tens out in front for the double up.

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

An early position player opened to 22,000 and it folded to Viliyan Petleshkov on the button who moved all in for 215,000. The small blind folded and Michael Rodrigues made the call in the big blind with a bigger stack. The initial raiser got out of the way and the cards were on their backs.

Viliyan Petleshkov: J♥J♣
Michael Rodrigues: A♠K♠

It was a classic flip situation, and when the board ran out 7♣6♥4♣J♠5♥, it was the jacks that held up to win the flip and score a massive double up for Petleshkov close to the money bubble.

Nick Pupillo opened the action to 20,000 from under the gun and it folded around to Kristen Foxen in the big blind who made the call.

The flop fanned out 9♥2♥2♣ and Foxen check-called a bet of 25,000 from Pupillo. On the 8♣ turn play slowed down with both players checking to the 3♦ river.

Foxen cut out a bet of 65,000 and Pupillo went in the tank. After close to a minute of thought, Pupillo reluctantly folded his cards and the pot was sent to Foxen without showdown.

Cherish Andrews opened to 16,000 from the button and was called by Nozomu Shimizu in the big blind.

Andrews decided to look Shimizu up and he revealed Q♠8♥ for broadway. Andrews couldn't beat it and mucked — conceding the pot to Shimizu.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The PokerNews team was called over to a table after the fact to hear a hand that had just happened.

A short-stacked player in early position moved all in for 45,000 and Robbi Jade Lew moved all in over the top for 82,000 next to act. It folded over to Steven Buckner in the cutoff who made the call to put both players at risk. The rest of the table got out of the way and the cards were shown.

Early Position: A♦9♦
Robbi Jade Lew: A♠K♦
Steven Buckner: A♣Q♥

Lew was in great shape preflop with the better kicker, but when the board ran out 8♦6♥3♣Q♠6♣, it was the turned queen that hit to score Buckner the pot and send two players to the rail.
