Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
There was a raise from under the gun before Angela Jordison shoved all in for 115,000, and the player to her left made the call. The action quickly folded around to the original raiser and he mucked his hand.
Angela Jordison: 10♠10♥
Opponent: A♣K♠
"I'd like to see a ten," said Jordison before the dealer fanned a flop of A♠4♥3♥. "Well, that's so sad."
The 10♦ hit the turn though, changing Jordison's mood as she yelled, "Oh!" And the K♥ completed the board on the river for Jordison to scoop the pot.

Tim Hirschman: A♥10♥
Big Blind Player: JxKx
The big blind flopped top pair and turned trips, but that was no good against Hirschman's flopped nut flush.

The flop came Q♦5♣2♠, and Moorman check-called a bet of 35,000.

Chris Moorman: A♠A♦
The 7♠ river meant Moorman's aces were good to eliminate his opponent as they are approaching the bubble.
