Bryne, Filipovic Go to Battle

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Steven Filipovic and Melissa Bryne got into two heads-up all-in preflop spots, with each taking a win.

The first saw a classic coin flip between the two, with Bryne having Filipovic covered.

Steven Filipovic: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Melissa Bryne: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

Board: {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{k-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Filipovic hit the ace he was looking for on the flop, and the aftermath chipped him up to 58,000, and left Bryne with 10,00.

Shortly thereafter, Bryne put that last 10k to work, going all in preflop over the top of a three-bet from Filipovic, and getting the call.

Melissa Bryne: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Steven Filipovic: {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Board: {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Bryne got some of her chips back in the second showdown, and both are still in the hunt going into the second break.
