"JessiFilhoQ4" Gets There in Huge Cooler

Level 13 : 500/1,000, 125 ante
"JessiFilhoQ4" Gets There in Huge Cooler
"JessiFilhoQ4" Gets There in Huge Cooler

It was a four-way all-in with "ddaubar" holding aces, "Barathrum15" on ace-queen, THEKIDM8" with big slick, and "JessiFilhoQ4" on jacks. A jack hit the {3-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} flop, but "ddaubar" held ace of diamonds for the flush redraw. {6-Spades}{10-Clubs} on turn and river bricked though, and the flopped set for "JessiFilhoQ4" held for a huge pot.

"Barathrum15" chose not to rebuy, but "ddaubar" jumped back in with another stack.

Guarantee Busted

Level 11 : 350/700, 85 ante

There are now more than 1,000 entries for this one, which means the prize pool is starting to grow beyond the $50,000 guarantee. There is about $51,000 in the middle now, but registration is still open for more than an hour, so it's only likely to grow from here.
