Bullock Good with Ace-High

Kirk Brown

Level 8 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

The board read J♦4♥3♥4♠6♦ with around 50,000 in the middle when Jason Bullock checked it over to Schuyler Thornton who fired out for 27,000.

After some thought, Bullock slid out a stack of chips to signify a call, at which point he heard Thornton utter the sweetest words in poker...

"You're good,"

Thornton flipped over Q♦8♠ for just queen-high and Bullock tabled A♣2♣ for ace-high to take down the substantial pot.

Thornton was then left short but managed to double up the next hand with deuces and is sitting at 45,000.

Player	Chips	Progress

Not Your Typical Chop

Kirk Brown

Level 7 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

On a heads-up completed board of 9♥3♠3♦Q♦8♥, there was close to 45,000 in the pot when Zachary Vuong checked and then Dedric Williams moved all in to cover him.

After tanking for over thirty seconds, Vuong tossed out a chip to make the call and flipped over 7♦7♠ for just a pair of sevens. Much to his and everyone else's surprise, Williams also tabled 7♣7♥ for the exact same hand. The two players shared a laugh as the table shook their heads in disbelief and they chopped up the pot.
