"centrfieldr23" Gets Unlikely Knockout

Blinds: 3,000/6,000

With the bubble looming, some big pots are developing, and in this case, it involved an unlikely knockout. Action started with a raise from "centrfieldr23". Brian “TopCreature” Sherrier three bet it to 39,000, and it folded back to "centrfieldr23", who four bet shoved.

Sherrier quickly called with pocket tens, and was surely happy to see he was in great shape against the {7-Spades}{6-Spades} of "centrfieldr23." The flop of {j-Spades}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts} gave Sherrier middle set, but also gave "centrfieldr23" new life with a flush draw. A red queen o the turn changed nothing, but the {a-Spades} river changed everything.

After that rivered flush, "centrfieldr23" is now second in chips with over 300,000.

"centrfieldr23" Flops a Full House

Blinds: 1,200/2,400

"centrfieldr23" raised from under the gun to 4,800, and he was called by "SAMCROW." From the button, "FRIELnGood" moved all in for 35,000 and change. "centrfieldr23" would quickly shove over the top, getting a fold from "SAMCROW."

"FRIELnGOOD": {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
"centrfieldr23": {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

It was a classic coin flip, but that completed changed after the flop came {j-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. A six on the turn ended things, and "centrfieldr23" claimed another bounty.

"Mferr4" Gets a Double, But Misses On the Knockout

Blinds: 1,200/2,400

Action started with Eric “alwaysliquid” Vanauken shoving his short stack in. "tc_ownz" attempted to isolate by moving all in, having the table covered, but "Mferr4" woke up with {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}.

He was dominating the {a-Spades}{7-Spades} of "tc_ownz" and the {a-Clubs}{8-Spades} of Eric “alwaysliquid” Vanauken, and it looked like the Ace-Queen would hold after the flop and turn. However the {8-Clubs} came on the river, giving Vanauken a triple up, while "Mferr4" scores a big double up to over 130,000.
