Adam Lamers

Level 17 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Brandon Wittmeyer was down to just 385,000 chips and contemplated his move by using a time bank before shoving all in from the hijack. Andrew Lichtenberger confirmed the count in the small blind and then called.

Brandon Wittmeyer: K♣4♣ All in
Andrew Lichtenberger: 6♥6♦

The flop came A♥A♦Q♥ and Wittmeyer picked up a few counterfeit outs. The 3♥ on the turn narrowed his outs by one and the 6♣ on the river improved Lichtenberger to a full house.

Isaac Haxton raised to 240,000 from the cutoff, and only Thomas Boivin called, defending his big blind.

Boivin checked for a third time on the 7♥ river. Haxton reopened the action by betting 440,000, which Boivin called straight away.

Haxton tabled A♠7♠ for a rivered two pair, and Boivin mucked his hand.

Level 18 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Ben Heath raised to 260,000 from middle position, and when action folded to Adrian Mateos in the big blind, he moved all in for roughly 850,000. Heath took a moment to check the bet amount and then called to put Mateos at risk.

Adrian Mateos: K♣Q♦ All in
Ben Heath: A♦6♦

The flop brought extra help for Mateos, coming down J♣10♥10♣, although it didn't directly improve his hand. He now had an open-ended straight draw as well as two live cards.

The turn J♦ was no help, and when the river came, the 7♥ his fate was sealed.

Heath absorbed Mateos' stack into his own, and Mateos headed for the exit.
