Level 21 : 8,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Bryan Neira

Bryan Neira found himself all in preflop for 242,000 and racing for his tournament life against Alek Givotovsky.

Givotovsky: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Neira: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

Neira needed to improve to stay alive, and while he failed to do so on the {8-Spades}{5-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop, the running {a-Diamonds} turn and {a-Spades} river improved him to a full boat to score the juicy double.

Quads for Herold

Chad Holloway
Chad Holloway
Level 21 : 8,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

A player open-jammed for 318,000 from early position and Ryan Herold, who was in the cutoff, thought long and hard before jamming over the top. The rest of the players folded and the hands were turned up.

Herold: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

Herold had the best of it and he held on the {7-Hearts}{j-Spades}{9-Hearts} flop. The {10-Hearts} turn made things interesting as it gave Herold a set but also his opponent a heart flush draw.

The {10-Clubs} river was overkill for Herold as he improved to quads to claim the $100 bounty.
