Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Anuj [Removed:550] had just called from the big blind after Adam Kharman raised in the cutoff.

[Removed:550] check-called a bet of 75,000 from Kharman on the J♣3♦9♦ flop.

Both players checked the J♥ turn for the 4♥ to come on the river. [Removed:550] led out for 300,000 and Kharman quickly called.

[Removed:550] showed he had been trapping with A♣A♠, which was enough to win the pot. Kharman flashed K♠K♥, and let [Removed:550] know that he could have earned the full double up had it gone differently preflop

Triple-Up Triumph and a Penalty Misstep

Sava Krink

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Alexandre Reard initiated the action with a raise to 300,000 from the cutoff, leaving himself just 25,000 behind. Scott Drobes, on the button, went all in for 750,000. Besmir Hodaj, in the big blind, looked at his cards, then at his two opponents, and called. Assuming both players were already all in, he revealed his cards prematurely. However, Reard still had 25,000 left, and the dealer called the floor for clarification. The floor ruled that it was Reard's turn, and he went all in, leading to a showdown.

Alexandre Reard: A♣5♣ All in
Scott Drobes: A♥K♣ All in
Besmir Hodaj: A♠J♥

The board ran out 9♦4♠5♦Q♠7♥, giving Reard a pair of fives and the triple-up. Drobes, with ace-king high, won the side pot from Hodaj.

Hodaj, after losing the hand, was penalized and suspended from the table by the floor manager for one orbit due to prematurely revealing his cards.

Kavish Chouhan led out for 130,000 on a board of 9♣3♣5♦2♠. Ognyan Dimov made the call from the button.

The 8♠ river saw Chouman put out a bet of 230,000. After some thought, Dimov made the call.

Chouhan sheepishly turned over K♦J♥ for king-high. Dimov showed A♥7♥ for ace-high to take down the pot.
