Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

There were around 15,000 chips in the pot on a board of 9♦10♠10♥6♣ when the big blind checked, and Steven Shkolnik shoved all in. The big blind, who had around 15,000 chips behind, was covered by Shkolnik and eventually made the call which put him at risk.

Big Blind: 3♠3♦ All in
Steven Shkolnik: K♣10♣

The big blind needed to find a three on the river to take down the trips of Shkolnik but it never happened as the A♥ completed the board.

Tuffing Cracks Kings

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

A player from early position opened to 2,800 which was called by a player in middle position and Dave Tuffing in the hijack. Then once folded to the button, he three-bet to 7,000. The player in early position called, the middle postion player folded, and Tuffing made the call as well.

The flop came 5♦8♣7♥ and after the player in early position checked, Tuffing lead out for 20,000. The player on the button then announced all in for 22,200. The player in early position got out of the way, and Tuffing called.

Button: K♦K♣ All in
Dave Tuffing: K♥6♥

Tuffing was behind the pocket kings but could improve to a straight with a nine or four. Tuffing didn't have to wait long as the 9♦ hit the turn leaving the player on the button drawing dead. The J♥ on the river officially eliminated the player and gave Tuffing the pot.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

It was a limped pot preflop with an early position player, a middle position player, the hijack, button, the small blind and big blind all coming to see the flop. Brian Oshust was in the small blind. The flop came out as J♦K♦J♥ and the early position player bet out 1,400, the middle position player called. Oshust raised to 3,000 and was called by both players.

On the turn J♣ Oshust bet again for 1,700 and both players called.

The river 3♦ brought a bet of 15,000 from Oshust who received a call only from the middle position player who held KxKx for the full house and Oshust held J♠10♠ for quads.

Olsen Flops a Miracle to Stay Alive

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

A player from early position limped in, before Gisle Olsen raised to 3,200, and was called by the big blind. The player in early position then three-bet all in to 10,100, when Olsen four-bet all in to 15,600. The big blind snapped called, giving us three players with two all in.

Early Position: A♦Q♠ All in
Gisle Olsen: J♠J♣ All in
Big Blind: K♠K♥

The big blind set the trap perfectly with his pocket kings, poised for the double elimination. But when the flop came 6♠8♣J♥ it was Olsen with the best hand with his set of jacks. The 5♥ on the turn left the player in early position drawing dead, and the 2♠ on the river officially eliminated him, and Olsen scooped the main and side pot.

On a board of 5♦Q♣Q♥5♠K♣, there were around 20,000 chips in the pot when Augie Martinho shoved all in for 11,400. His opponent in the cutoff had some thinking to do but she eventually did make the call which put Martinho at risk.

Martinho flipped over A♣Q♠ for trips, which won him the pot as his opponent had A♦A♠.

Bob Raymus: A♦Q♠ All in
Cutoff: A♥K♣

It was looking bleak for Raymus until the board ran out with 7♦Q♣6♠A♠5♦ and Raymus's pair of queens won him a second life.
