Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Steven Borella raised in early position to 48,000, which was called by the big blind.

The flop came 6♣3♥10♦ which both players checked.

On the turn was the Q♣ which the big blind checked over to Borella, who bet out 50,000. The blind then decided to raise to 150,000 before Borella instantly three-bet all in for the big blind's last 200,000 chips. After sitting in the tank for over a minute, the big blind laid his hand down.

On a J♦10♥6♠5♥ turn Joe Cada was in a hand against Aaron Thomas.

Thomas had bet 60,000 and Cada had raised out of position to 200,000. Thomas called.

The river was the 4♠. Cada checked.

"Damn Joe," said Thomas, before checking behind. Cada showed A♥4♥ for a missed flush draw and a rivered pair of fours, but it wasn't enough as Thomas showed Q♣10♦ for a pair of tens and won the pot.

Level 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Matthew Greenberg shoved from the small blind on a 2♣3♦K♦ flop into the button who had just under Greenberg's stack. The button took a little while but found a call.

Button: K♠4♠ All in
Matt Greenberg: K♣Q♦

The button was looking to improve on the turn and river but the J♠ and 6♥ was no good and the opponent walked away from the table.

Greenberg added another bounty chip to his stack, and after the hand he sat with ten.

Level 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

A player from early position moved all in for 64,000. Matt Bond called before Clinton Branchen three-bet all in from the big blind for 240,000. With the action back on Bond, he thought before calling to put two players at risk.

Early position: 4♦4♠ All in
Clinton Branchen: A♠J♦ All in
Matt Bond: 8♣7♣

The flop Q♠10♥6♦ gave both Bond and Branchen a gutshot straight draw. The turn K♦ completed Branchen's straight with the 4♣ giving the third player in the hand a set, but it wasn't enough as he was eliminated and Branchen doubled through Bond.
