Nível 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

On a heads-up river of 7♣3♣K♥K♦2♣, Daniel Dealmeida was first to act in the massive pot of over 143,000 and he chose to just shove the rest of his stack in the middle. The action was then on his opponent, Eric Hayes, who went deep into the tank.

After a good minute of debating about his tournament life, Hayes decided to let it go and tossed his cards into the muck.

"if I shove turn you fold?" Hayes inquired.

"Maybe, not sure," Dealmeida responded as he raked in the pot.

Michael Lech: J♣J♠
Late position player: A♦K♣

Joe Couden: 7♣3♠

The board came in favor of the Couden when it came Kx7x3x and the rest of cards did not affect the result that Nguyen was knocked out of the tournament.

Nível 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

The player under the gun was all in for 2,000 and the player in late position raised to 6,000, the hijack called and the small blind, Alex Greenblatt also called. The flop came out with 6♣A♣A♦ and the small blind checked, the late position player bet 6,000, the hijack called and Greenblatt raised to 13,000. The late position player folded in fast motion and the hijack made the call.

The turn brought the 2♠ and the player all in walked away from the table while saying, "Goodnight", which raised some eyebrows from the other players. Greenblatt moved all in for 29,500 and the hijack went into the think tank and then made the call.

Under-the-Gun Player: XxXx
Alex Greenblatt: A♠9♠
Hijack: 10♥10♦

Greenblatt was sitting pretty with his trip aces and the river sealed the deal with the 9♣, making it a full house for the win.
