Liam Gannon

Level 24 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Joshua Kopp raised to 150,000 in the hijack and in the big blind, Dustin Schlickau moved all in for 1,200,000 which sent Kopp into the tank. "Sorry guys, just give me a minute," he said while pondering his decision. After some time he called and the hands were on their backs.

Dustin Schlickau: A♠K♠
Joshua Kopp: Q♦Q♥

The board ran out A♥Q♣10♥K♣3♥ and Schlickau's ace-king could not improve against Kopp's queens and he exited the tournament just shy of the final table.

Level 23 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Michael Brewer raised to 125,000 in late position and Michael Miller moved in his final 750,000 from the cutoff which only Nick Stille on the button called.

Michael Miller: K♦K♣
Nick Stille: 10♦[10h

Miller seemed set up to double, but the flop of 10♣3♠3♣ provided Stille a full house while the runout 9♦10♠ provided Still with four tens. Miller wished his table mates luck as he exited the tournament area.

Level 23 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Mark Homan moved in his final 210,000 from early position which saw Nick Stille call from the button while all other players folded.

Mark Homan: J♣7♣
Nick Stille: A♥J♦

"Payout," Homan joked before seeing the flop of 4♦4♠4♣. The turn and river K♣8♥ did nothing to improve his hand and last year's runner up finished another deep run in The RGPS Council Bluffs Main Event.

Level 23 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Renato Spahiu raised to 110,000 in the hijack and in the small blind, Tyler Westra moved all in for 500,000 which sent Spahiu into the tank. "I think I gotta call this," he murmured while shuffling his chips in one hand. After some thought he tossed in five yellow chips and the cards were turned on their backs.

Tyler Westra: A♦J♠
Renato Spahiu: 3♥3♠

The board ran out 6♥Q♠9♥8♠7♥ and the pocket pair held up for Spahiu to take down a massive pot while Westra exited the tournament area.
