Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Jeffrey King opened to 35,000 from the cutoff and Joseph Weinberger fired a pot-sized raise to 120,000 from the button. King, who had a little more, moved all in and Weinberger called with a slightly covering stack to put King at risk.

Jeffrey King: A♣6♥2♠3♥ All in
Joseph Weinberger: A♠4♣3♦2♣

The board ran out J♣Q♠J♠J♦2♦. King's ace-six kicker to the trips on the board played against Weinberger's ace-four kicker and he took the pot while Weinberger was left with less than one big blind.

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Jason Stockfish opened to 30,000 from middle position and received a call from Mike Holtz in the small blind before Jonathan Dimmig raised to 120,000 from the big blind. Both opponents made the call.

All three players checked the flop and turn leading to a final board of Q♣4♣2♣K♥7♥. Holtz made a pot-sized bet of 372,000, Dimmig called and Stockfish folded.

Holtz tabled A♣Q♠J♥3♣ for the nut-flush and nut-low and his opponent's hand hit the muck.

"Nice flop" one of Holtz' tablemates commented.

"It was an above-average flop" Holtz agreed as he dragged in a gargantuan pot.
