Baldwin Cracks Queens

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Jason Wheeler was under the gun and opened the action to 54,000. Eric Baldwin was in the small blind and moved all in for 518,000. The big blind called, having Baldwin covered, and Wheeler folded.

Eric Baldwin: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Big blind: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}

The board ran out {k-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}, and after flopping the king, Baldwin had to sweat a non-heart or queen river. He did just that, vaulting his stack over a million for the first time today.

Gullaume Diaz
Gullaume Diaz

A player moved all in preflop, and Guillaume Diaz jammed all in over top. Ian O'Hara was still left to act and called the all-ins, having both of his opponents covered.

Diaz: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
O'Hara: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

A dream spot for Diaz was completed when the board ran out {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. After the dealer cut down his stack, it was determined Diaz had 921,000. The other player in the hand had about 400,000, O'Hara paid up, and Diaz was pushed a massive pot.

Hanner Wins Massive Flip

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

A player raised to 75,000 from early position and was called by the player in the hijack. Jonathan Hanner moved all in for 614,000 from the blinds, and the original raiser folded. The other player called, having Hanner covered by less than 100,000.

Jonathan Hanner: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

The {6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{a-Hearts} board ran out in Hanner's favor, and he doubled up.

Tureniec Takes a Bit Off Qartomy

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

With about 150,000 in the pot and the board showing {7-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{8-Spades}, Michael Tureniec bet 75,000. Qartomy had checked after both players had checked the street prior, and he thought for just a moment before tossing his cards into the muck.

Double Knockout for Chang Luo

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

The player on the button moved all in for roughly 170,000. Arturs Daugis was in the small blind and moved all in for his remaining 45,000, and Chang Luo, in the big blind, called them both.

Chang Luo: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
Arturs Daugis: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Button: {q-Spades}{8-Clubs}

The board ran out great for Luo, as both players were drawing dead by the turn of the {6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{7-Hearts} board. The river was an inconsequential {10-Spades}, and Luo added to his stack as yet another table was broken.
