Bad Time for Queens

Erick Torres

Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Mark Davis got his chips in the middle from the hijack position against Zhou Lin in the small blind to be at risk for his tournament life.

Mark Davis: Q♣Q♠ All in
Zhou Lin: A♠A♦

Davis held a strong starting hand in pocket queens, but Lin had the goods as he showed pocket aces in response.

Davis needed a fortunate runout. The flop offered slim pickings as it fanned out 8♠J♣K♥. The 7♣ closed any backdoor opportunities, and the 4♦ sealed the deal in favor of Lin.

Sixes Hold for Keller

Erick Torres

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Istvan Keller went all-in from early position for 1,350,000. The table folded to Paul Vang in the big blind, who called to send the players to a showdown.

Istvan Keller: 6♦6♣ All in
Paul Vang: A♣K♥

Keller held the slight edge preflop, but the J♦7♥J♥ gave Vang counterfeit opportunities. The 10♥ gave Vang even more outs against Keller's pair of sixes, but, luckily for Keller, the J♠ river avoided all of the hazards to score the double and stay in the tournament.

Vang would be left short following the loss, and he was busted shortly after to exit the tournament.
