Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

In a pot of around 90,000, button David Benyamine got his last 102,000 in on the 2♠3♥J♣ flop against Stephen Hubbard in the big blind.

David Benyamine: A♣K♣K♦10♠ All in
Stephen Hubbard: J♠9♠6♣2♥

Hubbard's two pair were counterfeit on the 3♠ turn, and the 3♦ river upgraded Benyamine to a full house to secure a double-up.

Over at another table, Jeff Madsen limped in under the gun. Antoine Sankari then raised to 45,000 in the cutoff, and Ky Nguyen fired a three-bet to 160,000 on the button.

Madsen then called all in for 139,000, and Sankari tossed in calling chips as well after some thought. Nguyen placed a continuation-bet on the 2♠8♣2♦ flop, quickly forcing Sankari out of the pot.

Jeff Madsen: K♥K♦Q♦4♥ All in
Ky Nguyen: A♠A♦A♣5♣

Madsen was in dire shape against the aces of Nguyen, but he spiked a full house on the K♣ turn to leave his opponent with one out. The final ace did not appear on the 2♥ river, cementing Madsen's triple-up.

Jordan Glazer made it 28,000 to play from late position and was looked up by Adam Hendrix in the next seat.

Action folded around to Tom McCormick in the small blind, who moved all in for 68,000. Glazer then four-bet the pot to isolate, and Hendrix got out of the way quickly.

Tom McCormick: A♣K♠K♥7♣ All in
Jordan Glazer: A♥A♠7♥6♦

A tasty flop for McCormick came 6♣5♣2♣ to send him soaring into the lead with the nut flush, and when the 10♥ turn and Q♣ river bricked out, McCormick was shipped the pot for a much-needed double-up.

Ka Kwan Lau and Glen Tinney had gathered a pot of 175,000 preflop. The dealer then fanned the 3♠6♥J♥ flop, which Lau checked to Tinney. Tinney fired a bet of 80,000, to which Lau responded by moving all in.

Tinney's stack of 250,000 was covered by Lau, and he quickly called off to risk becoming the bubble boy.

Glen Tinney: A♥Q♠J♣9♥ All in
Ka Kwan Lau: Q♦6♦5♥4♠

Lau made two pair on the 4♣ turn, which remained the best hand when the river fell the 8♠. Tinney packed his bags in 109th place, and the remaining players were declared to be in the money.

Picking up the action on a completed board of 10♥4♥J♥6♥9♦, Nick Guagenti checked out of the small blind to Kane Kalas in the big blind. With the pot amounting to 200,000, Kalas then put Guagenti all-in for his last 155,000.

Guagenti sighed and spent some minutes in the tank. Eventually, he let go of his cards to leave himself just under 20 big blinds as the bubble inches closer.
