The inconsequential looking 2♥ completed the board and Bhaloo bet 11,000. Sullivan went into the tank but made the fold, as did the middle position player. Bhaloo is now back above starting stack.

William Smith opened to 2,400 and Peter Varga just ripped it in his face for 55,000. Smith considered his options for a bit and eventually decided to call it off and the cards were tabled.
Peter Varga: K♠7♥
William Smith: A♠Q♠
Smith was a favorite going into this matchup but the flop of K♣10♦3♦ immediately gave Varga the lead with his pair of kings. The runout of 5♠7♥ did nothing to help Smith and Varga scored a big double-up with his monster hand.
Smith has since vowed revenge and is eager to get another chance to battle with Varga, who says Smith is the "crazy man".

Nick Lanzi had less than 20 blinds when he decided to make a stand by going all in from early position.
Action folded to a player in late position, who had Lanzi covered and he made the call to put Lanzi at risk.
Nick Lanzi: 8♣8♥
Opponent: A♠K♣
The dealer fanned 3♣5♦8♦ on the flop, giving Lanzi a commanding grip on the hand. Lanzi’s opponent was openly disgusted at the outcome, muttering under his breath over his misfortune. The 6♦ and 3♥ were formalities, but winning the hand gave Lanzi a much-need double up.
