Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

John Pierce was all in from the cutoff and up against the button's entire stack.

Button: Q♣Q♥All in
John Pierce: A♣K♥

The 5x7xAx2x4x runout gave Pierce top pair and he took down the pot and knocked out a player.

A couple of tables away, Senovio Ramirez was all in and at risk from under the gun and had been called by a middle position player who covered him.

Senovio Ramirez: A♠K♠All in
Under the Gun: Q♠Q♦

Just as before, the 4♠5♦A♦6♦7♠ runout gave Ramirez the pair of aces to get the double.

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Alec Torelli raised in the cutoff to 10,000 and Mihai Niste made the call from the big blind. The flop came out with 6♥10♥4♦ and both players checked.

The turn K♣ was also checked through.

On the river 8♠ Niste bet out for 12,000 and Torelli contemplated, made the call and mucked when Niste turned over 9♦7♦ for the straight and was so confident he was the winner he pulled back his bet before Torelli mucked.

Mike Grafeo raised to 11,000 from under the gun and three players made the call.
