Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Action was opened from middle position to 75,000. It then folded to Andrew Gilmore in late position who went all in for about 500,000. It made it back to middle position who went into the tank for over a minute before he called and the cards hit their backs.

Andrew Gilmore: 8♦8♣
Middle Position: 3♥3♠

The full board ran out 8♠J♣5♦6♥2♦ and Gilmore would get a full double to vault up the leaderboards.

Brooks Wins a Flip

Andrew Knowles

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

A player in early position moved all in for 180,000 and Anthony Brooks reshoved his stack of roughly 550,000 from middle position. The rest of the table folded and the cards were on their backs.

Early Position: 4♦4♥
Anthony Brooks: A♦Q♥

It was a classic flip situation, but when the board ran out Q♦6♠3♣8♣Q♠, it was the ace-queen that made trips to score the pot and send his opponent to the rail.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

All of the chips went in the middle before the flop and Kenny Velez was at risk for about 700,000 against Victor Paulino.

Kenny Velez: K♣K♦
Victor Paulino: Q♦Q♣

Velez was in great shape to double until the dealer spread a flop of A♠Q♥5♦, giving Paulino a set of queens. Velez couldn't find one of the last kings as the board completed with the 3♦ on the turn and the 8♥ on the river.

Claudio Elizalde

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

This hand was relayed to PokerNews by Andrew Clarke just before break's end:

Five ways to a flop of 9♣3♥2♥, there were four checks to the preflop aggressor who placed a wager of 60,000. The small blind called, Andre Clarke called, the player to his left raised to 170,000, and the next player went all in for 900,000, Clarke made the call and the player in between folded.

There would be no more action as they went heads up to the turn and river.

Andrew Clarke: 2♣2♠
Late Position Player: 9♦9♥

Both players had flopped a set, leaving Clarke drawing to one out; he found it right away, though, as the 2♦ peeled the turn and was awarded the pot when the 6♣ fell with the elusive four of a kind.
