David Pham Finds a Double

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
David Pham
David Pham

Nathan Pfluger was in late position and raised it up to 40,000. David Pham took a look down at his cards and decided to move all in for his remaining 164,000 chips. Pfluger thought for a moment and eventually called.

Pham was at risk and tabled {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}, while Pfluger was dominated with {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}. "Well, I need a king," said Pfluger.

The flop came {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{a-Spades} and Pfluger laughed after seeing he was already drawing dead. The turn was the {4-Clubs} and the river as the {4-Hearts}, giving Pham a full double.

Make That Double Bacon

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Melissa Gillett raised to 55,000 from the hijack, and Adam Bacon moved all in for 184,000 from the small blind. Gillett thought for a moment and eventually called.

Bacon tabled {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}, at risk against the chip leader who held {a-Spades}{8-Hearts}.

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Bacon still needed either a king or a jack to double up or he was out the door. The turn was the {8-Clubs} and Gillett paired her eight, but it changed nothing. The river, however, was the {j-Diamonds} and Bacon survived to see another hand.

Ivan Starostin
Ivan Starostin

Ivan Starostin shipped all in from the cutoff for 126,000 and Roman Korenev called from the button. Starostin would need some help as his {3-Spades}{3-Hearts} was behind Korenev's {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}.

The board ran out {J-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{7-Spades}{K-Hearts} and Starostin could not catch a three to stay alive, and thus finishes in 14th.

Marquis Mccain Hits an Ace from Space

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Marquis Mccain was under the gun and open-shipped his stack of 426,000 only to be called by Billy Rodgers in the small blind.

Marquis showed {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} and had an anguished look on his face when he saw the {K-Spades}{K-Hearts} from Rodgers. However, the flop fell {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{2-Spades} giving Mccain the lead. He was able to fade the last king in the deck on the turn and the river to score a double-up.
