Pustina Wakes Up in the Big Blind

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Michael Rossitto was on the button with two smaller stacks in the blinds. Rossitto raised to 600,000 and Vlastimil Pustina shoved all in for 1,050,000 in the big blind. Rossitto flicked in a chip to call and the cards were tabled.

Vlastimil Pustina: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Michael Rossitto: {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}

The flop came {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Pusitna took a big lead with a set of nines. The {6-Clubs} on the turn left Rossitto drawing dead to the {q-Diamonds} on the river.

Jake Schwartz
Jake Schwartz

The action folded to Alex Condon on the button who raised it up to 110,000. Jake Schwartz shoved all in for just over 1,000,000 in the small blind and Condon quickly called to put him at risk.

Jake Schwartz: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Alex Condon: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

Schwartz was in need of some help but the {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades} board provided none of that. Schwartz was eliminated in 23rd place and Condon climbed to an above-average stack.

Ron McMillen moved all in from the hijack for 565,000 and it folded to Zachary Donovan in the big blind who slowly looked at one card at a time before making the call to put McMillen at risk.

Ron McMillen: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Zachary Donovan: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Donovan had McMillen out-kicked and when the board ran out {j-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, the ace-jack held up to send McMillen out in 24th place.

Kicker Plays For Bronshtein

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

The action folded to Calvin Anderson who opened to 100,000 on the button and Yuval Bronshtein moved all in for 640,000 in the small blind. The big blind quickly folded and Anderson made the call to put Bronshtein at risk.

Yuval Bronshtein: {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Calvin Anderson: {a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Both players held an ace but Bronshtein was ahead with a better kicker. The board ran out {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, and the ace-six high kicker played to score the full double up for Bronshtein.

Meanwhile on the other table Alex Condon found a double up off of Mark Zajdner.

McMillen Scores Double Up Off Donovan

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Zachary Donovan opened to 110,000 from the hijack and it folded to Ron McMillen in the big blind who moved all in for 440,000 total. Donovan made the call and the cards were on their backs.

Ron McMillen: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Zachary Donovan: {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

McMillen was ahead preflop but would need to dodge the live cards for Donavan. The board ran out {q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{q-Diamonds} and the ace-queen for McMillen made trips to secure the full double up.
