Andy Spears (from a previous event)
Andy Spears (from a previous event)

With the board reading {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, Yue Du was all in and at risk against Andy Spears, who was on the button.

Du was ahead with {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}, but Spears had flush outs with {K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. He hit one of those outs on the {2-Diamonds} turn, making his flush, and the {2-Clubs} river couldn't save Du. He was eliminated and Spears is one of the big stacks in the room with 300,000 chips.

With over 60,000 in the pot and the board reading {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, Steve Sung had a bet of 36,000 in front of him in the cutoff. Action was on Joshua Gibson in middle position. He thought for awhile and called.

Sung tabled {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} for top pair, top kicker and Gibson sent his hand to the muck. Sung collected the pot and is now among the chip leaders as the field is two away from the money.

Two Double-Ups for Short Stacks During the Bubble

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Lucas Blanco was under the gun and raised to 14,000 with 2,700 behind. Mike Watson was on the button and called.

The flop was {k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and Blanco check-called Watson's bet of 2,700.

Watson tabled {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} and Blanco showed {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}. The board ran out {j-Clubs} and the {5-Diamonds} giving Blanco the Broadway straight and the crucial double-up.

On another table Pascal Hartmann and Craig Varnell got it all in preflop. Hartmann tabled {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and Varnell showed {q-}{10-}. The board ran out clean for Hartmann, coming {8-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{6-Spades} and he also survived the bubble as it burst on another table on the same hand on hand-for-hand play.
