Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

We caught up with the action late, but we joined in time to see the fireworks. In a battle of the blinds, Jim Atwood had shoved the turn of a {3-Spades} {7-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} board. Jim Young put the rest of his chips into the pot with {10-Clubs} {10-Spades}, but his pair was second best. Atwood showed up the superior {Q-Hearts} {Q-Spades}, and Young was dead to two outs.

The river was the blank {7-Clubs}, though, and that's the end of the line for Young.

Atwood, on the other hand, is now the big stack in the room with about 725,000 chips.
