Level 27 : 20,000/40,000, 0 ante

Michael Devornica raised to 80,000 UTG with just 10,000 behind. Matt Waxman called in the small blind but surprisingly (at least to Waxman) Francesco Barbero folded.

The flop was {6-Spades}{A-Hearts}{K-Spades} and the remaining 10,000 went in but neither had much.

Waxman: {Q-Hearts}{J-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} for a gutshot and the nut low draw.
Deveronica: {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for a solitary pair of nines that were currently ahead.

The {A-Spades} on the turn changed nothing but the {Q-Diamonds} on the river made Waxman a pair of queens with a jack kicker just beating Deveronica's ten-kicker.

"Yes, finally," said Waxman.

We have four remaining.
