Farah Galfond raised to 2,500 on the button, and Hertsel Levy defended his big blind.

Hertsel Levy: Q♥4♣ All in
Farah Galfond: J♣J♥

Galfond's full house sent Levy to the rail and his Main Event came to an end.

"You Had Me Seeing Ghosts"

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

There were over 17,000 in the middle on a board that read Q♦2♣10♥7♣A♣ when this hand was picked up. Ramon Kropmanns checked from early position before Charles Ansanelli bet 10,000 from the hijack. Kropmanns responded with a check-raise to 50,800 to put Ansanelli to a big decision on the river.

Ansanelli went into the tank as he cut out the chips for a call and took an estimation of how much he would have left should he call.

"Show me king-Jack," said Ansanelli, presumably expecting the worst as he made the call.

Kropmanns showed K♣Q♥ for a pair of queens instead. Ansanelli tabled Q♠10♦ for two pair to claim the pot.

"You had me seeing ghosts," said Ansanelli. "I almost folded."

Moshi Pressures Richardson

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

There were already three players in an 18,000 pot looking at the 3♠4♣6♥ flop.

Christopher Richardson bet 5,500 on the flop and Mario Vojvoda folded from under the gun. Rivon Moshi called from the cutoff and the pair continued heads up to the 5♣ turn.

Moshi checked, Richardson bet 7,500 and Moshi tanked, counted out his stack, and then raised to 21,300. Richardson made a swift fold, leaving Moshi to pick up the pot just before the dinner break.
