Andrade Saved by the River

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

A player opened to 20,000 in early position, Mark Andrade was next to act and he moved all in for 44,000. Once action got to the player in the big blind he also moved all in, for 79,000. The original raiser folded and they were off to the races.

Andrade: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Opponent: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

The flop was a good one for Andrade as he picked up the nut flush draw {3-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Spades}. The turn was a brick {8-Hearts} but the {6-Spades} landed on the river to keep Andrade alive.

Esposti Wakes Up With Aces to Burst the Bubble

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Action folded to the button who moved all in for his last 24,000. Paul Esposti was in the big blind, made the call then showed his opponent the bad news.

Esposti: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{7-Spades}

The flop left Esposti having to fade a king, seven and backdoor flush and straight draws. {6-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{k-Diamonds}. But the board ran out clean for him {3-Spades}{2-Hearts} and he burst the bubble. The 20 remaining players are all guaranteed $1,367.

Esposti Doubles Through Chief

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The action was all but done, and the dealer was counting out Paul Esposti's stack. Esposti's pocket aces were still exposed with the board reading {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. Codey Chief's ace-king was already in the muck, and his chip stack was decimated as he doubled Esposti up to more than 200,000.

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Ron Lauzon completed in the small blind and Zoe Chua checked his option in the big blind. The flop came {6-Hearts}{7-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Lauzon went all in for 24,000. Chua called it off and the players flipped their cards.

Lauzon: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Chua: {k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

The board completed {5-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Lauzon got the double up to stay alive.
