Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Ravi Raghavan was all in for 270,000 from middle position and up against Chris Vitch in the hijack.

Ravi Raghavan: K♣K♦
Chris Vitch: Q♣Q♦

Raghavan was poised for a big double up as the flop came 6♦J♦9♦, but the Q♠ fell on the turn as Vitch made a set. Raghavan turned away from the table when the 10♥ before realizing he had made a straight to double up.

"I was looking for a diamond and saw a red card that wasn't a diamond," Raghavan said with a big smile as he sat back down.

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

On a heads-up flop of 2♦3♠K♠, Daniel Dzian bet 17,000 after a check from Andrew Peplinski, but then Peplinski put in the check-raise to 62,000.

Dzian kind of gave him a look and quickly made the call to see the 8♥ on the turn.

Surprisingly, Peplinski checked once more and Dzian showed no fear of the double check-raise and bet once more for 70,000.

Peplinski supposedly decided to give up and quickly mucked his cards as Dzian flashed Kx8x for two-pair.

A player in middle position raised to 13,000 before Niall Farrell three-bet to 55,000 from the big blind. His opponent called and they went heads-up to a 2♦9♠7♠ flop.
