Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action was caught on the flop of 7♠10♥7♣ with 15,500 chips in the middle.

Ankit Ahuja made it 13,500 from the big blind, and his opponent on the button went all in for no less than 103,000 chips, which Ahuja had covered.

Ahuja observed his opponent and clearly had a tough decision. The clock was called and the tournament director counted to the last of the 30 seconds when Ahuja put his chips in front of him.

Button: A♥K♦All in
Ankit Ahuja: 10♦9♣

Ahuja made the right call and the turn 6♠ and river 5♠ sent his opponent to the rail, while he chipped up to over 100 big blinds.

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Under the gun opened the action with a raise to 6,000. A player in middle position moved all in for 37,000 and John Kenner called from the hijack, as did under the gun.

With one player all in and at risk. Kenner fired 46,000 on a 6♠3♠5♦ flop, forcing his opponent all in and he quickly called.

Middle Position: A♣Q♣ All in
Under The Gun: 6♣6♦ All in
John Kenner: K♠Q♠

Kenner ran into top set and needed help, the 2♥ turn brought in chop opportunities before the 9♠ river rolled off. Kenner got there with his flush to eliminate two players.

On the turn, the board read 10♥2♠Q♠9♥. Martin Zamani jammed all in almost the second his opponent bet 6,000, nearly beating him into the middle with the chips.

His opponent thought for about a minute before he folded his hand and Zamani moved his stack close to 100,000.

The hijack opened the action with a raise to 6,000. Noel Rodriguez made the call in the small blind.

The hijack continued for 8,000 on J♥A♦7♦ and Rodriguez called.

The turn 8♣ rolled off and the hijack fired 16,000 before Rodriguez moved all in for 55,000. Frustrated with the situation, the hijack folded A♣K♥ face up, and Rodriguez dragged in the pot.

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel opened to 6,000 from the hijack, and was called by Thomas Boivin on the button, and the big blind.

The flop came A♦Q♠9♣ and the big blind checked Kabrhel who bet out 7,00 and was called by both players.

The turn was the A♠ and all the players checked to see a river.

The river was the 6♣ and the player from the big blind bet out 22,000. Kabrhel folded, and Boivin called.

The big blind showed J♣10♣ for a busted straight draw, and Boivin tabled Q♣7♣ for two pair, to take down the pot.

Conniff Silences Kabrhel

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Asher Conniff moved all in for 26,500 from middle position. It folded all the way around to Martin Kabrhel in the big blind.

Kabrhel looked around the table, confirming where the button was, looked at other players stacks, made eye contact with some of the players at the table who were not in the hand and considered it. He confirmed the bet amount three times with the dealer before looking at Conniff.

"Hm?" he said as if Conniff has said something but Conniff just replied "Nothing, it's on you dog." as Kabrhel continued to tank. Eventually after some more looking around at the table, Kabrhel made the call.

Asher Conniff: 10♠10♦ All in
Martin Kabrhel: Q♠7♠

The board ran out 3♥3♠A♦6♥2♥ and Conniff got the double.

"Garbage call" said Conniff to Kabrhel as he stacked up the double to which Kabrhel did not reply and sat in rare stony silence while staring at Conniff and the table.

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The cutoff opened the action with a raise to 6,000. Anuj Kwatra moved all in from the button for 32,500 before the small blind re-raised all in for 125,000. The cutoff got out of the way and the two opponents went off to a full board.

Anuj Kwatra: 9♦9♥ All in
Small Blind: A♦Q♥

The board ran out 4♥4♦3♣3♦8♣ and Kwatra's over pair to the board was good enough to scoop the pot.
