Luck of the Golden Chip

Level 37 : 500,000/1,000,000, 100,000 ante

Neil MacLeod is the other player left with a Golden Chip. He has just doubled up as well. MacLeod open-shoved for all his chips in the small blind and Richard Moreau snap-called from the bug blind.

Moreau: {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
MacLeod: {6-Spades}{5-Spades}

Macleod nailed the flop, hitting two spades with the {a-Spades}{4-Spades}{10-Clubs}. The turn {7-Spades} completed his flush but Moreau also had a spade draw, for a higher flush. The {9-Diamonds} fell on the river and MacLeod's stack doubled in size.

Kegan Cummings Shoves the River

Level 37 : 500,000/1,000,000, 100,000 ante

Richard Figiel just folded the river to an all in shove by Kegan Cummings.

The action started when Figiel opened to 2,400,000 preflop and Cummings defended from the big blind.

The flop came {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and Cummings checked. Figiel bet 3,500,000 and Cummings called. The turn was the {6-Hearts} and both players checked. The river was the {5-Clubs} and Cummings shoved all in. He went all in so fast, he almost beat the river card with his shove.

Figiel waited a moment, then folded.

"You float again?" asked Paul Mohorea.

"He checked the turn, so he didn't have an ace," said Cummings, "any card below a ten and I shove."

Leduc: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Figiel: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}

The board came {5-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, and Leduc faded the board to score the double up.

Richard Figiel and Neil Macleod were in the blinds when they played a huge pot that would put Figiel into second place in the chip counts.

Figiel opened from the small blind to 2,900,000 and Macleod took a moment before calling.

The flop came {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Figiel shoved all in for his remaining 7,800,000. Macleod took some time to make his decision and counted out the chips he would need to call. After another moment he called, sliding forward almost half of his remaining stack.

He showed {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a flush draw and what ended up being two over cards against the {9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} of Figiel. The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and the river was the {9-Diamonds}, giving Figiel the double up and putting him firmly in second place in the chip counts.
