Gluszko went deep into the tank as he contemplated calling all in for his last 13,000 and eventually the clock was called.

Gluszko let his hand go and Smith tabled A♦J♦ for a bluff.

"How do you feel right now?" tablemate Nitesh Rawtani asked.

"I learned something," Gluszko responded.

Pot-Limit Omaha

Anderson Ireland from the hijack and Patrick Stacey from the small blind were heads-up to the J♠J♣4♦8♠ board with around 18,000 in the middle.

Stacey checked, Ireland bet 15,000, and Stacey jammed for 20,600.

"I think I might be dead," lamented Ireland before he put in the call.

Patrick Stacey: A♥A♦Q♣6♥ All in
Anderson Ireland: A♠10♦9♠3♣

Fortunately for Ireland, he was not dead with an open-ender and the nut flush draw against the naked aces of Stacey. Ireland had many outs to eliminate Stacey but the A♣ river was not one of them as Stacey made top boat for the full double, but Ireland retains a healthy stack.
