Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 300 ante

Marius Andreus moved all in under the gun with {6-}{6-} and was called by Jan Ronningen in the big blind who had {a-}{9-} and hit an ace on the flop.

Andreus was then forced all in from the big blind. There was a raise from under the gun and Ronningen called from the small blind.

The flop was {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{j-Spades} and Ronningen check-raised all in and was called.

Ronningen: {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} had the flush draw while his opponent had {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and Andreus showed {k-Spades}{7-Spades}.

The turn was the {3-Diamonds} and the river the {q-Diamonds} to bring the flush.

Gary Farino and Egis Alsauskas Chop It Up

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 300 ante

There was a three way all in with a few raised eyebrows when the cards were shown.

Short stacked Gary Farino showed {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} while Egis Alsauskas had {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and a third player showed {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {9-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades}.

The third player was bust and Farino started to walk away from the table but was called back as it was a chop pot. Farino was not happy though and spent the next few minutes berating Alsauskas for being in the hand with those cards.
