Diaz Scoops a Massive Three-Way All In

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

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.

We didn't catch the action, but as we approached the table, the dealer was cutting down David Jackson's stack.

Laying in front of Jackson was his {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}, and beside it, his opponent's {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}. In the middle of the table was a {6-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Spades} board. Jackson had out-flopped his opponent and held to score a massive double-up.
