Holm Finds Help

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jeff Madsen opened preflop and Michael Holm was the only player to get involved, calling behind. The dealer laid {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} on the flop and Holm called Madsen's continuation bet.

On the {5-Clubs} turn, Madsen barreled for 33,000 and Holm moved all in over the top. It was a quick call from Madsen who turned over pocket-kings, the favorite at this point, with Holm holding {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for top pair and a flush draw.

The {2-Clubs} river saved Holm, bringing him a flush and preventing him from hitting the rail.

Teltscher Survives Scary flop, Eliminates Opponent With Ladies

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Mark Teltscher
Mark Teltscher

The under-the-gun player opened for 12,000 and was called by the button player. Action was on the small blind player who three-bet jammed for 77,000 and was called by Mark Teltscher from the big blind while the initial raiser and the button player folded.

Mark Teltscher: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

It was a classic race that was in Teltscher's favor until the flop came {7-Spades}{2-Spades}{6-Spades} giving his opponent a flush draw.

The turn brought the {9-Clubs} and Teltscher dodged all of his opponent's outs as the river fell the {4-Diamonds} and Teltscher raked in the pot.

Ingles Doubles Through Qartomy

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Cards were on their backs in a hand between old rivals Ray Qartomy and Jared Ingles. The latter was all in from the hijack for 163,500, way ahead with {k-Spades}{k-Hearts} against {3-Diamonds}{3-}. The {10-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} board brought a scare for Ingles but the {9-Spades} river was safe for him.

Set Over Set for 1 million Chip Pot

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Things had been going swimmingly for Vlastimil Pustina. He had accumulated a big stack and had remained steady during the last couple of levels. That was until he lost a big pot against his friend Clayton Saliba just now.

Pustina and Saliba explained how the chips had changed hands and it all boiled down to a set v set situation. Pustina had flopped a set of deuces and Saliba turned a set of jacks, which was when they went all in. The river was a brick and Saliba is now over the 1 million mark, whilst Pustina is sent back to the drawing board.

Tang Sends One Home

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jia Tang got in a dominating spot blind versus blind with {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} against a shorter-stacked player, all in for about 90,000 with {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}. The {k-}{3-}{2-} flop didn't help Tang's opponent, and the {a-} on the turn sealed his fate.
