Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

The board already showed 3♠A♣3♦2♣ in a heads-up with more than 850,000 in the middle. Manish Madan sent a bet of 110,000 and it was quickly called by Timothy Tenpas next to him.

The 5♠ completed the board on the river and both layers checked. Madan turned over A♦A♠ for a flopped full house and Tenpas sent his cards into the muck.

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Action picked up on the flop of 10♥4♦2♣ in a hand between Men Nguyen in early position and Marc Fluss in the small blind.

Both players checked to the 9♣ turn where Fluss led out for 100,000 and Nguyen called.

On the 2♦ river, Fluss checked and Nguyen thought for a moment before checking back.

"You have an ace you're good," said Fluss as he tabled K♥J♥ for king-high.

Nguyen turned over Q♠J♦ for a busted open-ended straight draw and the pot was pushed to Fluss.
