Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Limits: 3,000-10,500

Dylan Wilkerson limped under the gun, Shaun Deeb limped next to act, and Todd Ivens limped to his left.

"C'mon, family pot! Let's trap Jim [Collopy] with a piece of cheese," joked Deeb as Jim Collopy was seated in the big blind.

Elie Nakache completed from the small blind and Collopy checked his option in the big blind.

The Q♠J♠2♠ flop checked around to the 10♦ turn, which saw Collopy lead for 6,000 and only Deeb called.

On the 2♣ river, Collopy checked it over to Deeb who announced a bet of 17,000. Collopy was clearly displeased with the situation he found himself in after late registering, but he eventually tossed in the call.

"I like your hand, I have ace-high," admitted Deeb, as he tabled A♠8♣5♣4♣ for just the naked ace of spades bluff. Collopy revealed K♠8♠5♥2♥ for the second-nut flush as he dragged the pot.

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Limits: 3,000-10,500

Six players saw the flop come down 4♦J♦A♣. When it checked around to Ardit Kurshumi on the button, he bet the pot for around 39,000. Tyler Phillips jammed, and Kurshumi called for his last few chips.

Ardit Kurshumi: A♥J♥8♠3♦ All in
Tyler Phillips: A♠8♣4♥3♠

Upon turning his cards over, Phillips said, "I misread my hand!"

Kurshumi had top two pair against the top and bottom pair of Phillips. The rest of the board came 2♦7♦, which meant Kurshumi won three-quarters of the pot as both players had the same low.

Player	Chips	Progress
Ardit Kurshumi	140,000 93,000	93,000
Tyler Phillips	70,000 84,000	84,000
