Garcia Hits the Straight Flush

Level 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Tommy Nguyen raised in late position to 7,000 after a player in early position limped. The small blind and Andres Garcia in the big blind both called and the limper folded. The flop came out as 374 and the small blind checked, Garcia bet 8,800 and Nguyen called and the small blind pulled out the check raise and moved all in for 52,800, Garcia moved all in behind with the bigger stack and Nguyen folded.

Small blind: KQ All in
Andres Garcia: 54

The turn brought the flush everyone was looking for with the 6 and the river was the irrelevant K. The table did not realize at first that Garcia had the superior flush with the straight flush until someone announced it and even Garcia was suprised.

Madison Spikes River

Level 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Andrew Madison was starting to walk away from the table as it was not looking very good for his tournament life.

Andrew Madison: 88 All in
Opponent: 1010

The board already read 752, the turn was the A as Madison walked further away but the river came the 8 eight ball to make Madison stop in his tracks and walk back to the table looking dazed.

Scott Hits His Big Draw on the River

Level 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Preflop, Motyk Scott raised to 2,500 from early position. Sertac Turker made it 6,600 from middle position and Scott called.

The flop came 53J. Scott checked and Turker bet 4,000. Scott called.

The turn was the A. Scott now led out for 10,000 and Turker clicked back to 20,000. After some thinking, Scott put Turker all in. Turker snap-called for his stack of a bit over 80,000 chips.

Sertac Turker: AJAll in
Motyk Scott: 45

Turker was ahead with two pair, aces and jacks, while Scott had a pair of fives and also turned a flush draw and a gutshot.

The river was the 2, bringing in Scott’s wheel, sending a big pot his way and eliminating Turker.

Williams Up Early, Looking to Avoid Jinx

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

The cards were already splayed out in the aftermath of a hand with a board showing Kx8x3x3xQx. The defeated JxJx was turned over and the winning hand of QxQx of Rich Williams was showing as he added some more chips from the fallen player to his own stack which is more the 4X starting stack.

Williams hopes that bringing the attention to his stack does not jinx him as he referred to himself as "Jinx Williams" in the aftermath of the hand when he was asked to identify himself.

Pettersson Doubles Up Through Glasscock

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jan Pettersson was all in and at risk from late position for roughy 12,000 and called by Steve Glasscock in the big blind.

Jan Pettersson: 88All in
Steve Glasscock: A2

The dealer ran out a board of 1082K10 securing a much needed double up for Pettersson. Glasscock told PokerNews that the funniest part of his last name is that his wife is a third grade teacher, which got a chuckle from his tablemates.

Voigt Gets Out of the Hole with a Spade

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Mike Voigt went all in under the gun for his last 12,100. It looked like it might get through when it folded to the blinds, but the big blind woke up with it and made the call.

Mike Voigt: A9All in
Big Blind: KK

The big blind appeared safe until the flop spread 237, at which point he cut out the 12,100 to pay Voigt, just as the 7 peeled the turn before the inconsequential 2 fell on the river.

Voigt clapped his hands before collecting his chips, as he received a breath of life.
