Livello 7 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Daniel Rezaei and Shannon Shorr both checked a K♥10♥8♣ flop.

When the turn brought the 7♥, Rezaei checked again, Shorr bet 11,000 of his 85,000 remaining chips, and Rezaei called.

On a 5♠ river Rezaei put 150,000 chips in the middle to put the rest of Shorr's stack to the test. Shorr used two time banks before he made the call with A♥10♠. Rezaei showed 9♥8♥ for the turned flush, sending Shorr to the rail or to the cage.

Spencer came back with an all-in shove for around 270,000. Jorstad used up a time bank chip as he considered the decision, but he eventually slid his cards into the muck and tapped the felt as Spencer dragged in the massive pile of chips.

Paur Spikes the River Right After Break

Livello 7 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

On one of the first hands back from break, Taylor Paur was all in from the button for around 95,000 and up against Jonathan Jaffe in the hijack.

Taylor Paur: A♠Q♠
Jonathan Jaffe: A♦9♥

Jaffe jumped into the lead on the 9♦4♠J♥ flop with a pair of nines and left Paur needing help to remain in the tournament. The A♣ on the turn wasn't what he was looking for, but the Q♦ fell on the river and he improved to a better two pair to double up.
