Travis Speck

Jeff Tolbert moved in his final 250,000 from under the gun, and was called by Mark Martin and Pete Petree in the two following seats. Action folded around to Travis Speck in the small blind, who moved all in for 675,000 total and only Petree called.

Jeff Tolbert: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Travis Speck: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Pete Petree: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{q-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and Petree connected with the ten on the flop to send both Tolbert and Speck out of the tournament.

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

Grant Hart raised to 150,000 in first position, and James Herderhorst defended his big blind.

The flop of {8-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades} checked through to the {4-Clubs} that saw Herderhorst bet 200,000 and Hart call.

Herderhorst checked the {9-Clubs} river and Hart bet 250,000. Herderhorst thought for just a few seconds before tossing in the call. Hart turned over {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for a rivered nut flush, and with that pot, Hart has taken the overall tournament lead.
