Tim Baker

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

Limits: 50,000-175,000

Allen Kessler raised to 175,000 under the gun before Dennis Weiss potted it from the small blind. After the big blind folded, Kessler committed his stack of around 750,000 into the middle, which Weiss instantly called.

Allen Kessler: A♥K♥K♣2♦ All in
Dennis Weiss: A♦A♣7♥7♠

Kessler picked up some extra outs with a draw to the wheel on the 4♦5♥9♦ flop. The Q♠ hit the turn, and Kessler needed some help on the river to double-up through Weiss. However, the 9♣ fell, and Kessler headed to the rail in 12th place.

Sam Soverel called from the small blind and Dennis Weiss checked out of the big blind.

Both players checked the 3♦ turn to see the J♠ hit the river. Soverel checked, and Weiss bet the pot for 330,000. Soverel thought for quite some time before reluctantly folding, and forfeiting the pot to Weiss.

Limits: 60,000-210,000

Magnus Edengren opened to 150,000 from the hijack and was called by Dennis Weiss on the button and Philip Sternheimer in the big blind.

On the 8♥6♠5♦ flop, Edengren bet 400,000, Weiss called, and Sternheimer folded.

The 2♦ turn checked through to the 8♦ river which saw Edengren pot for 1,340,000. Weiss, with 1,255,000 behind, had to make a decision for his tournament life. Over four minutes would roll of the clock before Weiss conceded, and Edengren dragged a sizeable one without showdown.
