Davis Spikes a King to Stun Maruo

David Salituro

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Tasuku Maruo was all in for around 1,500,000 from early position as Kevin Davis put him at risk from the hijack.

Tasuku Maruo: A♣A♥ All in
Kevin Davis: K♣K♠

Maruo had woken up with aces in a massive cooler as the 7♠6♠3♦ flop left him poised for a double up. The turn, though, was the K♥ and Davis hit a set to take the lead.

The river was the J♠ and Davis took the pot to send Maruo to the rail following a brutal bad beat.

Sami Bechahed: K♦J♦

The pocket pair remained ahead all the way on the Q♠4♥2♥5♠3♣ runout as Ordet survived to extend his deep run.

James Reid: Q♦Q♥ All in
Jonathan Tamayo: A♥10♥

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Abdullah Al-Shanti in the small blind and button Isaac Kempton got all of their chips in the middle before the flop.

Isaac Kempton: Q♥Q♠ All in
Abdullah Al-Shanti: K♣K♠

"It's my time. Hold one time, baby," Al-Shanti yelled out as he shot out of his seat to await the flop.

The dealer turned over 5♣10♦8♥, followed by the 7♠ and 9♠ as Al-Shanti earned the pot with his kings. The stacks were counted down and Al-Shanti had Kempton's remaining 1,700,000 barely covered, sending him to the rail.

"It's okay to show a little emotion," Al-Shanti said following the hand.

Cantu Cracks Kings in Big Pot

Calum Grant

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

The middle position player meant to make it 100,000, but failed to announce raise thus the action was ruled as a call. This prompted Kevin Killeen to raise to 250,000 from the hijack. Action folded to Brandon Cantu in the small blind and he made it 675,000. The middle position player folded. Killeen moved all in for around 2,400,000 and Cantu quickly called.

Kevin Killeen: KxKx
Brandon Cantu: JxJx

Cantu was in rough shape and remained behind after the Q♦2♦2♣ flop. However, the J♣ turn saw Cantu make a full house to take the lead ahead of the 3♣ river.

Cantu didn't even bother stacking his chips, and after pulling off the suckout, he went for a quick walk around the Horseshoe Events Centre.
