Ham Saved By the River

Tyler Boyer

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Action was picked up on the flop with the board showing 3♥6♠J♣ and Dan Ham was all in for 45,800 with Eric Welch putting him at risk.

Dan Ham: A♠A♣ All in
Eric Welch: J♠J♥

Ham was on the brink of elimination with his pocket aces after Welch flopped a set of jacks. The turn was no help to Ham when the 8♥ hit the felt. But Ham's tournament life was saved when the A♥ came on the river to give him top set and double up against Welch's set of jacks.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

With three players seeing a board of Q♠6♠4♥6♥ and about 5,000 in the middle Victoria Livschitz bet 2,200 and was called by an opponent who was in position.

Livschitz bet again for 9,000 on the 4♣ river and this time it was enough to get a fold from her opponent.

David Salituro

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

David Haas three-bet to 3,000 in the hijack before an opponent in the cutoff four-bet to 10,000. Haas then moved all in for 33,000 and his opponent snap-called.

David Haas: K♦K♥ All in
Opponent: A♦K♠

Haas was ahead with his kings and needed to dodge an ace to keep his Main Event hopes alive. The 4♥4♣4♦ flop was safe, while the rest of the board ran out Q♥6♣ to secure Haas a double up.

"I haven't seen a hand like that all day. When you snap-called, I felt for sure you had aces," Haas said as he took in the pot.
