Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The button raised and Shai Zurr jammed the big blind for around 45,000. The button made the call and the players flipped their cards.

Shai Zurr: 10♣10♥ All in
Button:A♣3♣

Zurr was initially ahead, but the 5♦A♦7♠ flop gave the button a pair of aces, leaving Zurr looking to improve.

The 2♣ didn't help Zurr, but the 10♦ river saved him from busting the tournament and gave him the double.

Croffut Scoops a Big One

Ollie Garland

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The player under the gun limped in, as did the cutoff and the button. Adam Croffut squeezed to 20,000 from the big blind, the original limper folded, the cutoff moved all in for 24,400 and both the button and Croffut called.

The 6♠6♥5♠ flop saw Croffut bet out for 15,000. The button moved all in for Croffut's effective stack of 50,200 and Croffut called.

Cutoff: K♦Q♠ All in
Adam Croffut: A♠7♠ All in
Button: K♣J♦

Croffut was surprised enough to see he was already ahead with his ace-high holding, but the flush draw provided some insurance. The buttons chants for a king came to fruition on the 5♦K♠ runout, prompting them to erupt in cheer. However, the table reminded the button that Croffut had in fact made a flush, to triple him up.
