Jeremy Ausmus: K♠K♣ All in
Jeffrey Thone: A♣Q♣

It was a very safe runout for Ausmus, as the dealer spread a 5♥7♦3♦9♠5♣ board, earning Ausmus a full double up.

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action was joined as the big blind, Jeremy Ausmus, and under the gun player James Morgan were competing for a pot already worth 7,000 chips.

The dealer spread a 9♠3♥3♣ flop, and Ausmus elected to check-raise. Morgan had bet 2,000, which Ausmus increased to 6,500. The flop betting didn't end there, as Morgan then three-bet to 16,000. Ausmus called, and the two took a turn.

Morgan continued for 15,000 on the Q♦ turn, and again, Ausmus called.

The river 9♥ did nothing to slow Morgan down. Ausmus checked for a third time, and Morgan fired 30,000 into the middle.

Ausmus weighed up his options, but on this occasion, chose to fold.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Frederic Delval raised to 1,700 under the gun. Cheng-Jyun Yang made it 6,200 in the next seat over, which Rajiv Sakaria cold-called in middle position. It folded back to Deval, who called, and Yang called as well.

The trio checked through the 2♠2♣10♠ flop, after which Delval bet 5,000 on the 6♣ turn. Yang made a quick fold, but Sakaria flicked in a call.

The 8♦ river saw Delval size up to 13,000. After some deliberation, Sakaria called off. Delval showed Q♠Q♥, and Sakaria's cards hit the muck.
