Scott Kateian: A♠K♠ All in
Big Blind: 10♥10♣

The flop came 9♠6♥7♥. Kateian was looking for an ace or king as the turn came the 5♠ to create a flush draw and the river came the 7♠ to bring in the flush and give Katein the winner the hard way.

At the same table, Maurice Hawkins was eliminated when his small remaining amount of 6,000 was evaporated after an all in.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Jorge Kiriakidis in the small blind and his opponent on the button both had relatively short stacks to start the hand. They got it all in preflop. Kiriakidis slightly covered the button’s stack of 36,500.

Button: A♠J♥All in
Jorge Kiriakidis: A♦10♦

Kiriakidis was dominated but the flop 2♥6♦9♦ gave him life with a flush draw. The turn 4♦ brought in the flush and Kiriakidis, who would have been crippled had he lost the hand, got an extension to his tournament.

No Slow Roll Goes Unpunished; Aces Cracked Anonymous

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Neither party was willing to share their name after the result of the following hand:

A player at table 579 limped from under the gun. The player in late position raised it 10,000. The under the gun limper didn't waste any time in going all in.

The late position player took their time, savoring the moment before putting out the call.

Under The Gun: 5♦4♦
Late Positon: A♥A♦

The board rolled out 7♥7♦9♣3♥ and when the under the gun player called for a "Six!", the deck heard his cry as the 6♥ rolled off the deck and awarded him the pot with a straight.

Sharp Needles Cut Deep

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Ryan Sharp was on the turn on a board of 9♦8♠2♣5♥ and a pot of about 20,000 in it. He bet 12,000 and his opponent called.

The river was the Q♠. Sharp fired again, this time for 26,000. His opponent thought for a long time before tossing in the call.

Sharp quickly tabled the A♣A♦ as his opponent flung his cards into the muck to give Sharp the nice pot.

Velasco snap-called the all-in.

Ricardo Velasco: 7♥6♥

Velasco had slow-played his flopped straight, which paid dividends when his opponent made two pair on the river.
