Mark Davis Sends Two to the Cage

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Alex Peterson shoved for his last 21,000 from middle position and Victa Park, who was next to act, moved all in as well. Mark Davis reshoved from late position, everyone else got out of the way, and the three players tabled their hands.

Peterson: {J-Spades}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Park: {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}
Davis: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{K-Spades}{J-Hearts}

The board ran out {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and Davis took the pot with the ace-high flush to eliminate both his opponents.

Ronald Gesmundo Doubles Through Adam Owen

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Ronald Gesmundo opened to 20,000 from early position and Adam Owen, who was next to act, three-bet to 72,000. Gesmundo called.

The flop came {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Spades} and Gesmundo checked. Owen quickly bet enough to put Gesmundo to a decision for his stack, and he snap-called.

Both players showed pocket kings, but Gesmundo tabled {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{6-Spades} for the flopped nut straight and Owen showed {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades}. The {4-Diamonds} fell on the turn and the river brought the {8-Clubs}, so Gesmundo scooped the pot to double up.

Brent Roberts Chips Up

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

With about 100,000 already in the middle and the board reading {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, Kevin Pionkowski checked from the small blind to his only opponent, Brent Roberts in late middle position. Roberts checked behind.

The river brought the {4-Diamonds} and Pionkowski checked. Roberts bet 45,000, putting Pionkowski to a decision for about half of his remaining chips, and he went into the tank. After about a minute of thought, Pionkowski folded and Roberts stacked the chips.

Rick Alvarado Takes from Rep Porter

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

With about 110,000 chips already in the middle and the board reading {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}, Rick Alvarado bet 90,000 from the small blind into his lone opponent, three-time bracelet winner Rep Porter in late position. Porter went into the tank for just under a minute, but ultimately called.

Alvarado tabled {A-Spades}{9-}{6-}{4-} for trip fours with an ace kicker, which was good enough to win the pot.

Kevin Pionkowski opened for pot, 28,000 from a stack of 77,000. Brent Roberts defended his big blind.

The flop was {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and the rest of Pionkowski’s chips went in with Robert’s covering him.

Pionkowski: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Clubs}
Roberts: {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{2-Spades}

The turn was the {4-Hearts} and the river the {6-Diamonds}.

The better ten was good enough to take it for Pionkowski.

Wong: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Gamble: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{6-Hearts}

The turn was the {10-Spades} and the river the {3-Hearts}.
