"Fishyfish495" Fades The World

Blinds: 3,000/6,000

"Schultz1" moved all-in from early position for 54,756 which prompted another all-in one seat over from "Fishyfish495" with the covering stack. Action folded around and the cards were turned up.

"Schultz1": {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
"Fishyfish495": {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

The flop came out {8-Spades}{9-Clubs}{k-Spades} which gave additional outs to "Schultz1" in the form of a flush draw, and the turn {k-Clubs} gave them the additional counterfeit outs. The river {4-Clubs} missed the ace-queen and "Schultz1" was eliminated once more.

Arribas Takes A Chunk From Neeme

Blinds: 1,000/2,000

Andrew Neeme opened under the gun to 4,000 which Mario "marioparty" Arribas called in middle position and the big blind came along as well.
