Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

On a heads-up completed board of 9♣2♣10♣8♠7♠, there was around 400,000 in the middle when Matthew Smith checked it over to his opponent, Sean Troha.

Troha then bet the pot, putting himself all in and Smith went into the tank.

After a good two minutes, he finally decided to let it go and Troha was awarded the pot.

Daniel Negreanu opened the button to 65,000, and Jarred Solomon three-bet to 185,000 in the small blind. Negreanu called.

The K♦8♦6♥ flop was checked by both players to see the 8♠ turn.

Solomon fired out a bet of 140,000 and Negreanu pushed out the same amount for a call.

When the 2♦ landed on the river, both players checked. Solomon tabled A♠A♥K♠4♥ for aces up but it was no good as Negreanu showed Q♦J♠8♥7♥ for trip eights.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Ryan Coon limped the cutoff and Jason Bullock limped in the small blind before Ronald Keijzer checked his option.

When the 10♠8♦4♣ flop hit the felt, all three players checked to see the Q♣ turn.

Bullock led out for 50,000 and both players stuck around for the 5♦ river.

Bullock fired out again, this time a bet of 150,000, which was enough to take down the pot.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Giuseppe Liantonio had lost a big pot to Daniel Negreanu just a few hands prior where Negreanu made jacks full on the turn, leaving him short.

Liantonio put the majority of his chips into play with a raise and Sultan Khair put the rest in , Liantonio called and they ran a board. When cards were on their backs, Liantonio could be heard saying, "Well, I'm double suited...".

Giuseppe Liantonio: K♥Q♠10♠4♥
Sultan Khair: K♣K♠10♣5♣

The board ran out 6♥4♣6♦, shrinking Liantonio's chances of pulling ahead. When the turn brought the 7♣ it nearly closed the door on him, as he had to catch a four. The river bricked the 7♦ and Khair's kings were best.

Player	Chips	Progress
Sultan Khair	1,200,000 580,000	580,000
Daniel Negreanu	1,100,000 300,000	300,000

The river came the Q♣ and Slobodskoy set out a small bet of 45,000 which Liantonio called and was shown J♦J♣10♠5♠ by Slobodskoy for a rivered Broadway.

Liantino slid his cards into the muck while Slobodskoy raked in the pot to boost his already large stack to almost 2,500,000.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

With about 200,000 in the middle, the turn read 9♥8♦2♦J♥ and Ronald Keijzer checked to Ryan Coon who fired out a bet of 120,000.

Keijzer tanked for about thirty seconds and made the call.

The 3♠ fell on the river and Keijzer checked once again. Coon thought about it for a moment and checked back while tabling A♥9♠8♥7♠ for two pair, which was good enough to drag the pot.
