Level 15 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

The action folded to Brian Rast in the small blind who just limped in. Andrew Pacheco checked his option and the flop of 10♥7♦6♦ was spread across the felt. Both players checked and the 2♦ landed on the turn.

Rast led out with a bet of 60,000 and Pacheco called to see the 5♠ on the river. Rast sized up a bet of 240,000 this time which forced Pacheco to use a time bank before calling. Rast tabled Q♥8♥ for a missed straight draw while Pacheco held 10♠2♠ for two pair.

Level 15 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Stephen Chidwick raised from under the gun to 120,000 and met resistance in the form of Vinny Lingham from the big blind, who three-bet to 275,000. Chidwick called, and they headed to a flop.

Lingham continued for 250,000 on the J♣8♣3♥ flop, to which Chidwick responded by moving all in for 720,000. Lingham wasted no time in calling and immediately received the bad news.

Stephen Chidwick: A♠J♦ All in
Vinny Lingham: 10♠10♦

Chidwick had flopped top pair, and Lingham needed help if he was to drag in this pot.

Alas, no help arrived on the 8♦ turn or the 6♥ river, and Chidwick got the full double-up.

Vinny Lingham	2,750,000 840,000	840,000
