Ball Pips Cheong

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

Joseph Cheong opened to 2,000 in early position and Scott Ball three-bet to 6,000 in middle position. Action folded back to Cheong, and the two players ended up getting the chips in with Ball at risk for his stack of 37,800.

Scott Ball: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Joseph Cheong: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

The {9-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop kept Ball ahead, although the {10-Clubs} turn provided a sweat. The {2-Spades} harmlessly completed the board to keep Ball in front and he collected the double.

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante
Sofia Lovgren
Sofia Lovgren

Sofia Lovgren was seen with a big smile on her face and raking in a massive pot that she won after going all-in against two opponents for around 33,000.

Lovgren held {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and was against Erik Wigg's {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} and the {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} of Peter Cross. The flop of {j-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} gave Lovgren a set and Wigg a bigger set, but the miracle {j-Spades} on the turn improved Lovgren to quads.

The river brought the {3-Spades} and Lovgren scooped the massive pot, while a side pot went to Wigg and Cross was eliminated.
