Paul Ephremsen: {9-Spades}{8-Spades}
Faraz Jaka: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

The board ran out {4-Diamonds} and {k-Hearts} to keep Ephremsen's flopped two pair in front and secure the double through Jaka.

Guilbert Gets Value

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Johan Guilbert
Johan Guilbert

With roughly 200,000 in the pot on a {q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop, Johan Guilbert bet 67,000 in the small blind and an early position player called.

The {7-Hearts} turn saw a check from Guilbert and a bet of 45,000 from his opponent. Guilbert tanked and a player at the table called the clock. Soon after the floor started counting down, Guilbert called.

The {2-Clubs} completed the board and Guilbert led for 137,000, with about 200,000 behind. His opponent seemed a bit bewildered and thought about it, but ultimately called.

Guilbert turned over {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades} and dragged in the pot as his opponent mucked.

Schulman Spikes Straight to Survive Set Sweat

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Nick Schulman
Nick Schulman

An early position player opened to 20,000 and Nick Schulman shoved for 140,000 in the hijack. Action folded back to the opener who called.

Nick Schulman: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Opponent: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

Schulman had his opponent pipped, but the {9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop put Schulman well behind his opponent's set. The {7-Diamonds} turn gave him gutshot outs, and the {8-Hearts} spiked the river to complete that draw and keep Schulman's tournament life alive.

Flush Doesn't Come for Simao as Rheem Takes the Pot

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Chino Rheem
Chino Rheem

Joao Simao opened from early position to 22,000. From the button, Chino Rheem raised to 80,000 and Simao was the only player to call.

The flop came {7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Spades} and Simao checked over to his opponent bet 75,000. Simao wasn't a believer and called to see the {4-Spades} on the turn. Again, Simao checked to Rheem who bet 190,000, and once again received a call.

Both players checked the {10-Hearts} on the river. Rheem showed {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and Simao briefly flashed {a-Spades}{5-Spades} before mucking his hand.
