Gregg Bloom raised to 400,000 in the cutoff with A?Q? and got called by Ronald Kaepernick in the small blind with 8?8?.

The flop came 6?5?2? and Kaepernick led for 400,000. Bloom called to see the 9? on the turn.

The players now checked, and did so again on the 9? river as Kaepernick's two pair were good to take the pot, and the chip lead from Bloom.

Ian Auvil was all in for 780,000 from the big blind with Q?8? versus Gregg Bloom's A?10? in the small blind.

The flop came 8?7?3?, pairing Auvil's eight. He still had to fade a pair of overcards, but would do just that as the 7? turn and Q? river completed the board, keeping the lively Auvil in the game.

Kaepernick Doubles Through Chamberlain

Mike Patrick
Mike Patrick
Level 28 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Folded to Ronald Kaepernick in the small blind, he moved all in for 1,700,000 with A?7?. He would run into Paul Chamberlain and his J?J? who called.

The dealer dropped a flop of A?K?10?, pairing Kaepernick's ace to give him the lead. Chamberlain would need a queen for a straight or a jack for a set to eliminate Kaepernick.

Unfortunately for him, the 9?K? turn and river were neither, sending a healthy double-up to Kaepernick.

Chamberlain Doubles Through Auvil

Level 28 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

After Ian Auvil opened to 350,000 in the cutoff with A?6?, Paul Chamberlain moved all in for 1,800,000 in the small blind with 8?8?.

Back on Auvil, he thought for a bit and then made the call.

The flop came K?J?8?, giving Chamberlain a set of eights. To rub salt in Auvil's wound, the board completed 6?A?, giving Auvil a losing backdoor two pair, while Chamberlain doubled up with his set.

After Paul Chamberlain raised to 325,000 under the gun with A?9?, Ronald Kaepernick moved all in from the big blind with K?Q?.

Chamberlain thought briefly but then called to put Kaepernick at risk.

The flop came K?9?7?, pairing Kaepernick's king to take the lead.

The turn was the 7? and the river the 5?, keeping Kaepernick's kings ahead to earn a much-needed double-up.

Miguel Medrano moved his last 270,000 into the middle with 7?7? and got called by Gregg Bloom in the big blind with Q?5?.

The flop came A?3?2?, bringing a world of outs to Bloom.

The A? turn changed nothing, but the 4? on the river brought Bloom everything he could want with a wheel and a flush.

Medrano headed to the payout desk to pick up his 5th place money, while Bloom extended his chip lead.

After Ian Auvil raised on the button with K?K?, Miguel Medrano woke up with A?J? in the small blind and moved all in for about 1,800,000.

Ronald Kaepernick folded and Auvil quickly called with a similar stack.

"No ace," called Auvil as the dealer spread a flop of 10?8?4?. Auvil's kings continued to hold on the 8? turn, and then finally with the 5? river.

The dealer counted down the chips to see if Medrano was still alive. He was barely just so, holding onto 200,000 chips, while Auvil moved solidly back into second place.
