Vi Do Bursts the Bubble

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

When there were 312 players left, the tournament staff asked all dealers to stand up when they finished dealing the current hand so they could start hand-for-hand play, if needed.

On Table #147, the player on the button was all in and called by Vi Do in the big blind.

Button: {6-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Vi Do: {K-Spades}{J-Spades}

The board ran out {4-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}. Do hit his jack on the turn for aces and jacks with a king kicker to burst the bubble, and no hand-for-hand play was needed.

Christopher Frank Hit a Flush

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Recent bracelet winner Christopher Frank is also playing in this flight and was just involved in a hand.

The player in the under-the-gun position raised to 2,500, Frank on the button called, and so did the player in the big blind.

The flop came {5-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}, the big blind checked, the under-the-gun player bet 3,000, Frank called, and the big blind player folded.

The turn gave them the {5-Diamonds}, Frank's opponent bet 4,500, and Frank called.

The {3-Diamonds} on the river completed the board and his opponent check-called the 8,000 bet of Frank. Frank showed {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a rivered flush and his opponent angrily mucked.
