Harrell Doubles Through Murphey

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Imre Makranyi raised to 60,000 from middle position and Susan Murphey called from the small blind. Marie Harrell squeezed all in from the big blind for 345,000, which only Murphey called.

Marie Harrell: AQ All in
Susan Murphey: KJ

Both players had a shot at a royal flush with five cards to come, although Harrell held the lead with ace-high.

Neither player connected with the 96963 runout, which meant Harrell's ace-high was enough to earn her a double-up.

"Only in the Super Seniors"

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Kelley Slay
Kelley Slay

A unique hand that might only be seen in this event was just recalled to PokerNews by Kelley Slay, Jonathan Lemone, and a few others at Table 86.

According to Slay, he opened to 55,000 from under the gun, and Lemone three-bet from middle position to around 175,000, leaving himself about a million behind. When the action got back to Slay, he slid out a stack of green chips, four-betting to roughly 550,000.

Lemone mistakenly thought Slay had put him all in and immediately shoved his entire stack into the middle before turning over KxKx.

With the most information possible, Slay now had a decision to make. Having already seen that Lemone held what was currently the second nuts, he needed to decide whether to commit another half-million chips.

Slay looked across the table and asked, "What do you think I'm going to do?" before making the call and turning over KxKx himself for the two remaining kings in the deck.

The table shared a laugh, and fortunately, there was no sweat on the runout, and the two players chopped up the blinds and antes.

After retelling the story, Slay jokingly remarked, "Only in the Super Seniors," which drew another laugh from those at the table.

With about 450,000 in the middle and the board reading 857J, Dokell moved all in for 195,000 and Batavia thought for a moment before making the call.

Micheal Dokell: 77 All in
Manoj Batavia: K6

Carson Shoves Into Yeo's Aces

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Korte Yeo
Korte Yeo

From early position, Dick Carson raised to 100,000, and Korte Yeo three-bet to 200,000 on the button. Carson ripped it in for about 350,000, and Yeo quickly called.

Dick Carson: AQ All in
Korte Yeo: AA

Carson needed a miracle to crack Yeo's aces, and he found a small glimmer of hope on the 5Q5 flop by pairing his queen.

Nothing more came of it for Carson after the 10 and 2 completed the board, and he was the next player to make his way to the payout desk.
