Level 21 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Robert Brobyn
Robert Brobyn

The turned board read {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Spades} and there was around 550,000 in the pot when Robert Brobyn checked to Jonathan Dokler who bet 285,000.

Brobyn check-raised all in, totaling about 1,000,000 and Dokler snap-called, tabling {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} for a set. Brobyn looked surprised as he turned over {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}, giving him a pair with a straight draw.

The {2-Diamonds} river missed Brobyn and he was eliminated by the red-hot Dokler.

Level 21 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Jonathan Gilliam
Jonathan Gilliam

Jonathan Dokler opened to 100,000 from the hijack, Jonathan Gilliam called his last 85,000 all in from the cutoff and Anton Wigg called in the big blind, creating a side pot.

The dealer spread out {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} on the flop and both players then checked to the {k-Clubs} turn card. Wigg tapped to Dokler, he bet 50,000 and Wigg called to see the {j-Hearts} river card.

Action checked to Dokler, he bet 200,000 and Wigg quickly folded, sending the side to Dokler. Gilliam tabled {k-Spades}{2-Spades} for three cowboys but it was not enough as Dokler showed his {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}, giving him a rivered boat, sending Gilliam out the door.

Anton Wigg opened to 125,000 from the button and Justin Liberto pushed his 430,000 stack into the middle. Wigg called and the two turned over their cards with Liberto at risk.
