Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Donovan Koldoff opened to 6,500 from middle position and picked up two callers: Justin Kalvari and James Miao, both on the button.
Seemingly frustrated, Koldoff suddenly grabbed a tower of 5,000 chips — worth roughly 90,000 — and shoved it into the middle of the table. Kalvari quickly got out of the way, but Miao went into the tank, prompting a visibly anxious reaction from Koldoff.
After a long pause, Miao eventually folded, and Koldoff exhaled in relief before turning over A♥A♦ — the rockets.

Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
A three-way all-in just happened between James Derosa, Jon Nakatani, and Red Banks. Derosa had the covering stack, so he had the chance to bust two players.
Red Banks: A♦K♥ 
Jon Nakatani: J♥J♣
James Derosa: A♥A♣
Derosa started with the nuts holding pocket aces and needed to avoid an unfortunate runout to win the pot. The board ran out 9♦3♥7♦9♥10♠, which was clean for Derosa's aces. Derosa moved up to around 230,000, while Nakatani and Banks were out.

Play was underway on a flop of J♣4♥Q♦ with about 10,000 in the pot. Rick Muniz led out for 9,000 and was called by Michael Coombs on the button.
Both players checked the J♠6♣ runout.
Muniz revealed Q♥10♠ for two pair with the board, but Coombs turned over K♠Q♠, showing the better kicker to take down the pot with a superior two pair.
