Livello 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Stanislav Zegal raised to 1.8 million from the button with the A♣J♠ and Michael Sklenicka three-bet to seven million from the big blind with the K♥3♦.

Zegal called and flopped the joint when it came down Q♥10♣K♦. Sklenicka, who flopped top pair, continued for 3.8 million and Zegal just called.

"How Good Does This Guy Run?!" Glantz Hits Two Outer

Livello 36 : 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Matt Glantz open-jammed a stack of 16.3 million on the button and Daniel Neilson called in the big blind with a bigger stack.

Matt Glantz: 6♠6♦
Daniel Neilson: A♠A♥

Glantz had run into aces and needed a six. He got some help as the flop of 8♠8♥9♦ gave him a backdoor straight draw, but he didn't need it as the 6♣ landed on the turn to give him sixes full of eights before the 9♥ river improved him to a better full house.

"How good does this guy run?!" exclaimed Norman Chad.
