Level 34 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Vinicius Lima raised to 1,000,000 in the cutoff and Wayne Harmon defended in the big blind.

Harmon check-called a bet of 600,000 on the J♣5♠K♦ flop, and check-called again for 1,000,000 on the 10♠ turn.

The river brought the J♥ and Harmon led out with a bet of 2,000,000. Lima then moved all in for 6,075,000 total.

Harmon was clearly faced with a tough decision, and after some deliberating, he elected to muck his hand, showing the J♦ in the process. Lima gracefully showed KxJx, which Harmon appreciated.

Noel Eicher: K♠J♠ All in
Nadya Magnus: A♦9♣

Eicher flopped trips on J♥2♣J♣ to take the lead. Magnus found a flush draw with the 7♣ turn, but the 5♦ river didn't change anything and Eicher doubled up.

Herbie Teope

Level 34 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Caleb Bloomer was in late position when he moved all in for his remaining 4,850,000, and then he was immediately called by Aliaksei Boika, who was to Bloomer’s left.

The rest of the table folded and the cards were tabled, with Bloomer at risk.

Caleb Bloomer: K♥7♥ All in
Aliaksei Boika: K♦K♣

The dealer fanned 4♣J♠7♠ on the flop, giving Bloomer a pair of sevens but Boika remained in the lead.

The situation changed when 7♣ showed up on the turn, giving Bloomer trip sevens, and he went on to win the hand when 6♣ hit the river.

Bloomer scored a full double up, while Boika was left with a devastated chip stack.
