Set for Magnus

Following an all in from the button for 43,500, Nadya Magnus committed her last 44,000 from the small blind.

Magnus: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

The{6-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{Q-Hearts} would render Magnus' opponent drawing very slim, and when the {4-Clubs} and {3-Diamonds} completed the board, Magnus would eliminate her opponent and move to roughly 90,000 in chips.

Dominguez Gets Lucky

Thomas Dominguez shoved on the button, and the player in the big blind was agonizing whether to call off her 50,000 or so. Dominguez flashed her the {a-Diamonds}, and she continued tanking for awhile and showed the {a-Hearts}. Finally, she opted to call and showed {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. Dominguez had {a-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and was dominated, but he binked a three on the turn and is among the leading stacks.

Johnson Takes a Hit

Emily Johnson
Emily Johnson

Emily Johnson called a 31,000-chip all-in from the button and was in dominating shape with her {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts} against her opponent's {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}.

The flop of {9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{J-Clubs} gave her opponent additional outs to the straight, and when the {9-Clubs} and {8-Clubs} landed on the turn and river, Johnson's opponent would indeed spike his straight to double through to nearly 70,000 as Johnson took a hit to 173,000.
