Martin Zamani

James Borland moved all in from early position for 695,000 and Martin Zamani put in an isolation raise to 2,000,000, with the rest of the table getting out of the way.

James Borland: AQ
Martin Zamani: 88

Borland wouldn't have to wait long to take the lead on the AJJ flop, leaving Zamani needing an eight and an eight only to clock the elimination, but the final runout of AJJ96 wouldn't help Zamani and gave Borland the full double.

Gravagna Gets Unlucky Twice

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Timothy Capretta moved all in for 310,000 from the cutoff and John Gravagna snap called in the big blind.

Timothy Capretta: A9
John Gravagna: 99

Capretta was behind but spiked an ace on the AK8 flop to take the lead in the pot. The board ran out 5A and Capretta finished with trips to double up.

A few hands later, Gravagna pushed forward 275,000 from the button, leaving himself just a single chip behind. Josh Palmer then reshoved, and Gravagna checked to see if there was a pay jump approaching before calling.

John Gravagna: AQ
Josh Palmer: AQ

Both players had the same hand and appeared headed for a chop until the 4J5 flop gave Palmer the nut flush. Gravagna was already drawing dead as the board ran out 63.

"How does that happen? I never take a picture, but I have to take a picture of this one," Gravagna said as he snapped a photo of the board before heading for the exit.

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Leonid Yanovski raised to 80,000 from under the gun before Rayan Chamas shoved all in for 460,000 in middle position. Yanovski called once action folded back to him.

Rayan Chamas: AQ
Leonid Yanovski: 99

It was a big coinflip with nearly 1,000,000 in the middle as the 1023J10 board left Yanovski's nines in front and Chamas making the walk to the payout desk.

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

David McGowan raised to 80,000 before Jordyn Miller moved all in for 785,000 in middle position. Melanie Weisner then reshoved for 460,000 and McGowan got out of the way.

Melanie Weisner: QQ
Jordyn Miller: 77

Weisner was a big favorite to earn the double up as the board came 5AJ5K, leaving Miller paying her off.

Riordan Calls Vela Light

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Action folded to Michael Vela in the small blind who moved all in for 210,000. John Riordan in the big blind called to put him at risk.

Michael Vela: J5
John Riordan: 32

Riordan paired his three on the 3AK flop while Vela had a flush draw. The 6 turn didn't help Vela, and neither did the 2 river as Riordan made two pair.

"What the f**k, two-three," Vela said as he pretended to wrestle with Riordan after the hand before collecting the payout slip.
