Eads Completes the Combo Draw to Double

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

A player in the hijack opened to 1,200 and a player on the button three-bet to 4,000, receiving calls from David Eads in the small blind and the original raiser from the hijack.

On the 8♠3♥2♥ flop Eads shoved for around 30,000. The hijack made the call with a covering stack to put Eads at risk while the button got out of the way.

David Eads: 5♥4♥
Hijack: A♦8♦

The hijack had the best made hand with top pair but Eads was a slight favorite with his open-ended straight draw and flush draw. The 2♠ turn was a brick but the flush came in on the Q♥ river giving Eads the winning hand to score a full double up through his opponent.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

On a board of 10♦5♠7♥4♥ board, Gus Hansen check-called a big bet from Brandon Schwartz on the button to see the J♥ fall on the river. After Hansen checked, Schwartz moved all in, the bet was for all of Hansen's remaining chips, which amounted to roughly 33,000. Hansen thought for a while and kept saying "I have absolute #$%@, absolute #$%@". A few moments later, Hansen opted for a call.

Scwartz turned over 10♠7♠ for two pair. Hansen nodded his head as the dealer turned over his cards A♠K♣. With that Hansen was eliminated from the tournament.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Davide Suriano opened to 1,200 from middle position and received a call from a player in the big blind.

The flop came 9♦3♦2♠ and the big blind check-called a 600 continuation bet from Suriano.

Suriano fired a second barrel for 1,200 when checked to on the 10♠ turn and was once again called by his opponent.

On the 8♠ river the big blind checked, Suriano bet 3,000 and the big blind called.

Suriano tabled 9♠9♥ for a set of nines which was good enough to take down the decently-sized pot.
