Tom Guidon
Tom Guidon

Ray Espinosa open shoved and Tom Guidon pushed in behind him with just a few less chips.

Guidon: {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}
Espinosa: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

The flop fell {6-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{q-Spades} keeping the nines out front, but the miraculous {4-Hearts} turn gave Guidon a set. Down to two outs, Espinosa hit the {9-Spades} on the river and jumped from his chair as Guidon went out ninth.

Another River

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Brandon Louvier
Brandon Louvier

Brandon Louvier made it 150,000 to go before Gary Espinosa pushed all in having him covered.

Louvier tank-called with {8-Spades}{8-Clubs} and was well behind Espinosa's {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

The {j-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop was safe for Espinosa and Louvier looked all but dead after the {2-Spades} turn before suddenly spiking a set on the {8-Diamonds} river to come back to life.
