Scott Jacobs open-shoved preflop and the action folded around to Kevin Strehlow who called to put him at risk.
Jacobs: [Qh7h]
Strehlow: [Ad10d]
Jacobs would need to improve to stay alive, and the flop provided for him as it came [Kc7d6d] to pair his seven.
The runout of [Kd4h] changed nothing and Jacobs was awarded the pot for the double.
Jacobs - 108,000
Strehlow - 305,000
After some preflop betting action, Elmo Mitra got it all in against Joe Rubel, who covered.
Mitra: [Js10d]
Rubel: [AhKs]
Mitra would need some help to stay alive, but the runout of [3sAc9h6s3d] gave Rubel an ace on the flop to send him to the rail.
Rubel - 330,000
Ravee Sundara opened to 4,500, Brian Richardson called, and then Vladislav Shovkovyi moved all in for 7,000 total. This re-opened the betting for Sundara who then moved all in, forcing out Richardson.
Shovkovyi - [Qc9d]
Sundara - [2c4c]
"Well, I think I have 60%,"Shovkovyi joked, but the flop came out [7h6c5c] to give Sundara a huge hand with his straight and flush combo draw.
Surprisingly, the turn [8h] gave Shovkovyi the higher straight to the nine, but the river p came the [7c] to give Sundara a flush, sending Shovkovyi to the rail as the table let out a collective good-natured laugh.
Sundara - 110,000
