Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Carlo Darelli raised to 225,000 from the button and Alexander Hill defended from the big blind.

The flop came {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and Darelli continued for 350,000. Hill called, then shoved on the {a-Hearts} turn. Darelli snap-called with {9-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for the flopped flush, while Hill had {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for two pair.

The {2-Diamonds} came on the river and Darelli earned the double up.

"I should've ripped it pre," Hill lamented.

Seidman Doubles Stebbins, Blames Lyons

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Barry Seidman had raised pre-flop before Daniel Stebbins went all in for 580,000.

"You haven't played a hand in ages. You must have something," Seidman said.

"It's been that bad," Stebbins responded.

"Don't blame me. I'm calling you with garbage," Seidman said as he put in the remaining chips, showing {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts}.

Stebbins showed {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} and held on the {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{j-Spades}{6-Diamonds} board.

"There's so much noise. I blame him," Seidman said, pointing to the talkative Pat Lyons sitting to his right.

"Screw you," he told Lyons while pretending to sneeze as the entire table erupted in laughter.

Jose Paz-Gutierrez moved all in before the flop for 1,035,000. Clyde Reed, sitting to his immediate left, considered the decision for a moment before calling.
