Walton Beats Payne in Showdown

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Having defended the big blind, Adam Walton checked the 106310 turn and Joshua Payne checked behind from an early position. The 7 river was checked by Walton again and Payne bet 550,000.

Walton called rather swiftly and Payne knuckled the table with a "good call, king high" before exposing the KJ. Walton earned the pot with the 53.

Flush No Good for Valdez

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Fausto Valdez moved all in for his last 865,000 from middle position and was looked up by Daisuke Goto in the small blind.

Fausto Valdez: AQ
Daisuke Goto: 55

Valdez would need to win a flip to survive but fell way behind on the 5810 flop. The 2 turn did give Valdez some flush outs, but the 10 river, while completing Valdez's flush, improved Goto to a full house to send Valdez out of the tournament.
