Dan O'Hair

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Peter Bloch and Chad Lipton were heads-up on a flop of 3♣A♠4♠.

Bloch bet 75,000 from the big blind and Lipton raised to 400,000 from middle position. Bloch called.

The J♣ fell on the turn and Bloch checked to Lipton, who shoved for 840,000 total. Bloch counted the pot and stuck in a call after a bit of deliberation.

Chad Lipton: A♥Q♣ All in
Peter Bloch: J♠10♠

Lipton was ahead, but had to fade a lot of outs against Bloch's two pair and flush draws.

The 9♠ river completed Bloch's flush and Lipton was eliminated.

Bryce McVay opened to 80,000 from early position and Clement Van Driessche three-bet to 235,000 on the button. Once the blinds folded, McVay shoved for around 1,000,000, and Van Driessche snap-called.

Bryce McVay: A♥K♠ All in
Clement Van Driessche: A♣A♦

An unfortunate situation for McVay who did pick up some chop outs on the flop and turn, but couldn't survive after the dealer put out the 4♣3♦5♠6♦J♥ board.

Russell Hits the Jackpot to Send Andress Home

Kai Cocklin

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Charles Russell opened the cutoff to 80,000 and John Andress shoved his stack of around 650,000 into the middle from the button. Once the blinds folded, Russell called.

John Andress: K♦K♣ All in
Charles Russell: 7♦7♣

Andress was in good shape to double up but his hopes were dashed when the flop of 5♠J♣7♠ improved Russell to a set. A J♠ landed on the turn which, despite giving Russell a full house, did bring some more outs for Andress as now any king or jack would see him survive. Unfortunately for Andress, a 10♠ fell on the river which meant he was eliminated.

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Picking up the action on the river, Alex Greenblatt in the small blind was involved in a hand with Joseph Bold on the button.

With the board reading 9♠3♥Q♠4♦7♦ and a large number of chips already in the middle, Greenblatt moved all in for 775,000. After asking for a count, Bold made the call but mucked with some frustration after Greenblatt tabled 9♣7♣ for two pair as he conceded a pot with massive equity considerations to his opponent.

Elsewhere, Giuseppe Vassallo was seen making his way to the payout desk.
