Blakeman Cracks Law's Aces For Massive Pot

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

After a series of raises before the flop, Dan Blakeman got all 885,000 of his stack in against Chun Law. Blakeman held {A-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} but was destroyed by the {a-Clubs}{A-Spades} of Law.

The flop brought {6-Spades}{4-Hearts}{K-Clubs} and Blakeman paired his king. He was still behind and needed help. He found exactly that when the {K-Hearts} hit the turn and he instantly jumped into the lead. the {5-Diamonds} finished the board and Law jumped away from the table, mortified at what had just transpired. Blakeman, on the other hand, had a grin on his face as he's now well over 1.8 million in chips.

Humphrey Gone; Final 18 Set

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

Emmit Humphrey was eliminated in unknown action. His elimination has thrust us into our final two tables. Seating draw and chip counts are on their way.

McKeldin Doubles

Level 24 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

We have another double up here as we eagerly await to see who makes the final two tables.

Norman McKeldin got all of his stack in holding {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} against the {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} of Emmit Humphrey. Humphrey flopped an open-ended straight draw when the dealer spread out {7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, but ultimately nothing materialized for him as the turn and river were both eights. McKeldin is now sporting about 560,000 in chips thanks to this double up.
