"nunu2018" Spikes the River to Double

Blinds: 16,000/32,000

"nunu2018" moved all in from under the gun for 328,000 and change, and "CheRalph" made the call with {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}. "nunu2018" showed {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}, and the flop brought plenty of action, coming down {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. This gave "CheRalph" top set, but also gave"nunu2018" a flush draw. The {j-Spades} turn gave him a few more outs, but he wouldn't need those, as the {q-Clubs} came on the river, giving him a winning flush.

"CheRalph" Doubles to over a Million

Blinds: 16,000/32,000

Following a min raise from "Edsebo", Jason ”RiverMan” Lawhun three bet it to 270,000. Next to act, "CheRalph" shoved all in for just over half a million. "Edsebo" folded, but Lawhun called with {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}. He was in rough shape against the {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} of "CheRalph", and since neither player had a heart, neither player improved on the {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} runout.

This gave a huge boost to "CheRalph", who is suddenly one of the chip leaders.

Himpele Busts Stone in Biggest Pot of the Tournament

Blinds: 10,000-20,000

There was another massive all in preflop confrontation from the blinds, and this one saw Don "dhimp20" Himpele bust Katie "KatieStone" Stone. Stone was in the small blind, and got her stack in the middle holding {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. However, she was dominated by Himpele's {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}. The flop of {7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades} missed both players, and a queen on the turn left Stone drawing dead.

This puts Himpele into the chip lead on the bubble of the final tabe.
