On a heads-up flop of 76Q, the stacks got into the middle between Dudley Bienvenu and Russell Ross, with Ross covering.

Cord Garcia
Cord Garcia

On a heads-up turn board that read 256, the pot was already swelled when Cord Garcia moved all in against Mark Pertgen.

Pertgen thought for several moments before he decided to make the call, putting himself at risk. He then flipped over 77 for an overpair and an open-ended straight draw but was in second place when Garcia tabled 99 for a superior pair.

The river bricked with the 4 and Pertgen was sent to the rail while Garcia was shipped the big pot, catapulting him into the chip lead.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

On a heads-up turn of QAA5, Jignesh 'Jay' Patel checked to Bryan Broussard who bet 4,000. Patel then check-raised to 13,000 and Broussard responded by moving all in to cover. Patel quickly called to put himself at risk and tabled AJ for trip jacks, ace-kicker.

Broussard was not too happy with the call as he tabled 45 , drawing stone dead.

The river 7 secured Patel's victory in the hand and he was awarded the substantial pot for a big double.

Ho Doubles Through Sundara

Level 4 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

After a couple of players limped, Tony Ho opened to 1,400 and was called by Ravee Sundara and Michael Nichols.

Sundara then bet out 6,000 in the dark and the flop came out 3Q10. Nichols got out of the way, but then Ho and Sundara managed to get it all in, with Ho at risk.

Sundara tabled a strong holding of KK, but it was behind Ho's Q10 for top two pair.

The runout of 8J further improved Ho to a flush and he was awarded the pot for a double.

"You limp-called with kings?" Ho asked Sundara, puzzled.

"You cannot play every hand the same," Sundara simply responded, "You have to mix it up."
