Aces Cracks Aces

Level 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

In an already bloated pot preflop, Nathaniel Wiesner got all in from the hijack on a K37 flop, with Matthew Wolfson in the big blind also prepared to go the distance, both players holding the rockets.

Nathaniel Wiesner: AA975 All in
Matthew Wolfson: AA762

Both players held club draws, but Wiesner's trumped his opponent's as he held the ace. He saw the dream Q turn, meaning he was freerolling and just needed to avoid Wolfson's nut low draw. The J river was as clean as it gets, as he held to soar past the average stack and near the 500,000 chip mark.

A Jolly Good Split

Level 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Michael Christ raised to 20,000 under the gun. Brian Jolly limped behind him, then James Woods raised to 50,000.

The action folded back around to Christ, who called. After careful consideration, Jolly did the same.

The flop hit 338. Christ moved all-in for 31,000. Jolly called, Woods folded.

Michael Christ: AQ1053All in
Bryan Jolly: AK1062

The turn-river combo Q7 brought a split pot, as Christ turned a full house, threes over queens, and Jolly rivered the nut-low.

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

After the action was checked to him, Jonathan Kain raised all-in from the small blind with his last 36,000 chips.

Big blind, Stanislav Halatenko made the call.

Jonathan Kain: A9832All in
Stanislav Halatenko: Q10543

The runout 49JJA went to Halatenko, who hit a flush. There was no low.

Pu Hits Trips to Double

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Andrew Park opened to 14,000 from middle position. Jiang Pu was on his direct left, and shoved for 48,000. Action folded around to Park, who thought for a little while before putting in the call.

Jiang Pu: AK1082 All in
Andrew Park: AJ753

The 10J6 flop came good for Park, but the 10 turn had him in a world of hurt, drawing to just two jacks on the river. The 6 wasn't one of them, as Pu held on to double up and survive.

Wolfson Picks Up Chunk

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

The hand was picked up after a flop of 723 with Peter Ferderber betting 40,000 from the big blind.

Gary Bolden made the call under the gun. Then Matthew Wolfson moved all in with some 200,000 chips.

Peter Ferderber made the call, and Bolden called all-in with less.

Gary Bolden: A7643All in
Matthew Wolfson: A8854All in
Peter Ferderber: AA955

Bolden and Wolfson had flopped the nut-low, while Ferderber had a pair of aces and a nut-flush draw. And everybody had some sort of wheel draw.

The runout of the K6 resulted in Wolfson taking the high with a straight, and splitting the low of the main pot with Bolden.

More Boats Than a Harbor

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Action was picked up on a flop reading J33 with Aaron Kupin facing a decision for his tournament life. With 42,000 of his already out there, he made the call for his final 10,000 against Senovio Ramirez, only to see that his opponent had flopped massive.

Aaron Kupin: AQ972 All in
Senovio Ramirez: AJ433

Ramirez had flopped quads, and paired his jack for good measure, as Kupin stood up knowing he needed a backdoor low. The 4 turn gave him a sweat, but the 4 river sealed his fate, with Ramirez covering the board completely.

Luttbeg Stays Alive

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Michael Khan raised on the button and David Luttbeg moved all-in from the big blind with his 43,000 chips. Khan called.

David Luttbeg: AQJ64All in
Michael Khan: Q6643

The runout of J5K93 barely hit Luttbeg, as he took home the double up with a pair of jacks.
