Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Damour Anthony initiated the action with an under-the-gun raise to 65,000, which Brian Morrison called from the button.

The flop came 5♦A♣4♠, and Anthony continued with a bet of 45,000. Morrison called again.

Both players checked the A♠ turn.

On the 4♦ river, Anthony checked, giving Morrison the chance to bet around 265,000. Anthony promptly folded, allowing Morrison to take down the pot.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Susan Kane was holding a pair of big red pocket jacks against Eric Holtz, who had her crushed with pocket kings. It appeared Kane would deliver the chokeslam on a jack-high flop, but got burned again on the king turn that swung Holtz back on top.

The case jack remained in the deck on the river to count Kane out from the tournament.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

The pot had grown to approximately 450,000 when we entered the scene on the turn. The board displayed K♣6♣A♠A♥, and both Manuel Faure De Fondclair in the big blind and Joshua Eisenberg on the button opted to check.

The river revealed the 4♣, prompting De Fondclair to go all in with 420,000. Eisenberg folded, allowing De Fondclair to nearly double his stack.

De Fondclair mentioned after the hand that he had 10♣9♥ for a pure bluff.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Action picked up with Anthony Pathman all in from middle position and called by Kevin Williams in the small blind.

Anthony Pathman: K♠Q♦ All in
Kevin Williams: 8♥8♦

The board ran out 10♣7♦J♠Q♣4♥ and Williams took a massive hit to his stack. That was until the very next hand when Williams was all in from button and called by Jay Patel in late position who had a shorter stack.

Jay Patel: A♥10♣ All in
Kevin Williams: A♦J♣

The flop was an emotional rollercoaster. The 10♣ in the window elicited a reaction from the table. However the rest of the K♣Q♦ flop put Williams in the lead with a straight. The 9♦ turn and 2♦ river were no help to Patel and he was eliminated. Williams

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Action picked up on a massive pot between Kenny Huynh in the small blind and Eduardo Gutierrez in the big blind. After a bet and a call on the Q♦Q♥9♥6♣ turn the two went to the river with Gutierrez staring at Huynh's stack.

When the 5♥ came on the river Huynh checked to Gutierrez who bet 350,000. Huynh took a few beats before announcing, "all in," for roughly 200,000 more. Gutierrez sighed and folded.
