Geremy Dickerson
Geremy Dickerson

Dan Duong raised to 120,000 from the cutoff and in the small blind Geramy Dickerson moved all in for 425,000 which sent Duong into the tank. After some thought he tossed in the chips to call and the cards were turned face up.

Geramy Dickerson: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Dan Duong: {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

The board ran out {9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{j-Spades} and Duong stood up and screamed "yes!" as the jack hit on the river, loud enough that the room turned to look at the table. Dickerson slammed the table and exited the tournament area.

Chad Utke
Chad Utke

Sinan Shathaya raised to 60,000 in early position which Victor Kulish call on the button, and Chad Utke call in the big blind.

The flop of {j-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} checked through to the {k-Diamonds} turn that saw Utke check and Shathaya bet 100,000, seeing only Utke call.

Utke checked once more on the {5-Hearts} river where Shathaya bet 290,000 which saw Utke toss in one chip for the call. Shathaya turned over {q-Hearts}{10-Spades} for just queen high and Utke flipped over {6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} for a pair of sixes which was good and Utke pumped his fist as the pot was pushed in his direction.
