Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
After having her aces cracked a few hands previously, Vanessa Kade was extremely short stacked.
Facing an early position raise from Morten Mortensen, a mid position call, and a shove from the small blind, Kade was at least getting some value for her inevitable all-in from the big blind.
Mortensen then reshoved and got a fold from the mid position caller, leaving Kade and the small blind at risk.
Vanessa Kade: 6♦4♥
Small Blind: A♠Q♠
Morten Mortensen: 8♣8♦
The board fell 6♥9♠K♣2♦9♦ and Mortensen claimed two scalps.

The charitable Barry Greenstein, who many know from old episodes of High Stakes Poker and Poker After Dark, was all in and at risk against the bigger stack of Aaron Johnson.
Barry Greenstein: 9♥9♠
Aaron Johnson: A♣K♣
It was up to the dealer to spin the wheel and they put out a board of J♠A♦A♠8♠5♥, pulling Johnson into the lead. The turn was the 8♠ which at least gave Greenstein a straight draw, but the 5♥ was a brick and Johnson chipped up heftily.

: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
John Mirkovich raised from the button and was called by Conrad Simpson in the big blind.
Simpson checked a flop of 4♣10♦4♦ and called when Mirkovich bet for a second time. The turn was the 6♥ and Mirkovich bet 16,500. Simpson called once more.
The river fell 8♥ and Mirkovich pushed all in. "Jesus!", exclaimed Simpson but shortly afterward put in the call.
Mirkovich tabled A♣10♥ and Simpson folded, revealing the 10♠. The dealer took a count, both players had exactly the same amount of chips, and Simpson's tournament was over.
