Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

The pot stood at approximately 10,000 with two players looking at a full board of 6♥4♦K♣5♠2♣.

Ankit Ahuja, who was under the gun, checked the action to the player in the hijack, who bet out 8,000. Ahuja responded by check-raising, moving all in for approximately 43,000, sending his opponent deep into the tank.

The hijack thought for a considerable amount of time before finally laying down their hand with some frustration.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Maria Konnikova opened to 1,300 from middle position. All players from the hijack to the small blind called. The big blind folded and they were five-way to the flop.

It came 10♦10♠9♥ and got checked around, as did the turn K♣.

On the river 6♦, the small blind checked and Konnikova bet 3,000. She got a call from Bobby Gunter, who was in the hijack. The other players folded.

Konnikova showed A♠K♦ and took the pot.

Despite a small setback paying off Konnikova, Gunter’s stack has been going in the right direction. Just the hand prior, he bet 20,000 into a pot of a bit under 30,000 on the board Q♥7♣8♠6♦A♥ from the cutoff. He got insta-called by his opponent in the small blind, quickly turned over 10♣9♠ for no less than the nut straight and took down a sizeable pot.
