The Classic Flip with a Twist and a Cold Ending
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
The action was opened by Quingwei Meng in early position before getting three-bet by Georgees Zero in middle position. It then folded all the way to James Pillon in late position who cold four-bet jammed having both players covered...they both called.
Quingwei Meng: Q♠Q♣ 
Georgees Zero: A♠K♠
James Pillon: A♥K♣
It was kind of the classic flip but with the twist that two of the players had each others outs. Meng was looking good through the 10♣3♣5♥ flop but the dealer then peeled the K♥ turn. Meng was drawing slim and the 8♦ river wouldn't come. Despite being in prime position for a triple, the other two players would split up his chips. Meng hit the rail just before break.

Tang Bombs the Turn
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ian Tang opened in early position to 6,000 before the action folded to Mayuran Srithara in the cutoff who called and the rest of the players folded.
The 6♣6♠10♣ flop landed and Tang continued for 6,000. Srithara called and 3♠ rolled off on the turn. Tang sat in the tank for about a minute before putting out a chunky bet of 23,000. Srithara then went into a tank of his own but eventually he mucked. Tang scooped after some well time aggression.

Stephan Used the Tried and True Secret Weapon
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
After significant action all the chips made their way into the middle between Tania Marie Stephan in the small blind and Jamie Sequeira in late position. The cards hit their backs with Stephan all in and at risk and she was gonna need some help.
Tania Marie Stephan: A♦J♥
Jamie Sequeira: K♣K♥
Stephan was being a good sport about being behind but she was already out of her seat and seemed to act as though the loss was a foregone conclusion. The dealer fanned out the 10♠2♠10♦ flop and she began to gather her things. The 4♣ hit the turn and she put on her jacket and grabbed her purse. She was literally walking away when the dealer peeled the miracle A♣ off the top of the deck and the table was sure to let her know.
The old put-on-the-jacket-and-leave-before-the-runout trick has been working for years. Not to worry though, Sequeira would then double back up a few hands later and Stephan would find yet another double a few hands after that.

The action was opened in late position by Sean Ngo to 4,000 before getting called in the cutoff and then the action folded to Stuart Taylor in the big blind who moved all in for his last 46,000. Ngo went deep into the tank. He checked the clock and counted his chips multiple times before flicking in a call to put Taylor at risk.
Stuart Taylor: A♦9♦
Sean Ngo: 10♣10♠
The full board ran out Q♦6♣2♥7♦8♠ and Ngo would scoop and send Taylor to the registration line.

Sequeira Holds for the KO
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
There was an early position limp followed by a raised from middle position by Jamie Sequeira to 6,000. It then folded to Mark Fitzpatrick in the small blind who only took a moment before moving all in for his last 22,500. The original limper went deep into the tank but eventually folded. Sequeira flicked in a call and they were off to a full board with Fitzpatrick all in and at risk.
Mark Fitzpatrick: K♦Q♠
Jamie Sequeira: A♦5♠
The full board ran out J♥6♦9♠5♦7♣ and Sequeira sent Fitzpatrick to the rail. Late registration still remains open so don't count anyone out just yet though.

The Limp Jam Keeps Working...
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
The action folded to Anthony Potis in early position who limped for 2,000. Bryan Robitaille-Fequet then raised in late position to 5,500 before the reamaining players folded and it was back on Potis. He took a moment and then moved all in for about 32,000 having Robitaille-Fequet covered. After about a minute in the tank Robitaille-Fequet flicked in a call and they were off to the races.
Bryan Robitaille-Fequet: Q♣10♠
Anthony Potis: A♣J♦
The full board ran out 6♦J♥5♦10♦K♠ and with a pair of jacks, Potis sent Robitaille-Fequet to the rail. The limp jam has been making chips at Playground all week.
