Martin Zamani

Action caught up to an all-in hand between Sridhar Sangannagari in late position and Maritn Zamani in the big blind, with Zamani check-raising all-in over Sangannagari's 100,000 flop bet on 10♥A♣9♣ and Sangannagari making the call.

Sridhar Sangannagari: A♠7♥
Martin Zamani: A♥9♥

Zamani's two pair would prove hard to overcome, but the K♠ turn would open the door to some chop outs.

However, the 4♣ river secured the elimination and sent Sangannagari to the payout desk.

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

Phil Hellmuth limped from the small blind and Ren Lin checked from the big blind.

The flop came A♠8♣5♥ and Lin bet 25,000 and was check-raised to 100,000 from Hellmuth, which Lin called.

The K♣ came on the turn and Hellmuth checked which confused Lin who let out a "Whaaaaaat!" as he checked. The 2♣ completed the board and Hellmuth bet 200,000. Lin called it off and saw the bad news as Hellmuth tabled 10♣4♣ for the flush which left Lin bewildered.

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

A player in early position raised to 50,000 before another middle-position player moved all in for 225,000. Louie Torres, on the button, then removed his Kirby figurine from atop his chips and reraised to 425,000, isolating the all-in player and leaving them heads-up.

All-In Player: A♥Q♥
Louie Torres: K♠K♥

Torres had to dodge a flush draw following the 5♥9♥9♦ flop, but his opponent missed the 7♠ turn and 7♣ river to hit the rail.

"Damn Kirby, sucking up some more," a tablemate said as Torres stacked the pot.
