Connor Drinan Eliminates a Player

Level 5 : 150/300, 0 ante

We got to the table just in time to see Connor Drinan presenting his cards after an all-in situation.

The board was {5-Spades}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{j-Spades} and Drinan was sliding {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{q-Spades}{q-Diamonds} forward.

"I didn't even see the flush," said the all-in player as he got to his feet.

"I did," replied Drinan stoically as he stacked his chips.

Dan Heimiller Doubles Up

Dan Heimiller got all his chips in the middle on a flop of {K-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{2-Hearts} against the player in the big blind, who had the larger of the two stacks.

Heimiller: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Big blind: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}

Heimiller had the lead with top two pairs, but he needed to dodge his opponent's flush and straight draws in order to double up. The {K-Spades} on the turn gave Heimiller kings full and left his opponent drawing thin, and the {9-Clubs} river ensured that he would take the pot.

Andy Margolis Chips Up Through Loni Harwood

Level 5 : 150/300, 0 ante

With about 8,000 chips already in the middle and the board reading {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{2-Spades}, Loni Harwood bet 8,000 from middle position and her lone opponent, Andy Margolis, called from the hijack.

The {K-Clubs} fell on the river and both players checked. Harwood tabled {A-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for aces and eights, but Margolis flipped over {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} for aces and kings, and he took the pot
