Francoeur Shoves To Gather Over a Million

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Phong Nguyen and Louise Francouer
Phong Nguyen and Louise Francouer

Three players saw a flop that came down {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Phong Nguyen bet 48,000 from the small blind and Louise Francoeur called from the big blind. The third player on the button called as well.

The turn was the {8-Diamonds}. Action checked around.

The river was the {6-Clubs}. Nguyen quickly pushed out two stacks for a bet of about 180,000. Francoeur instantly announced all in to fold out the third player and Nguyen went into the tank as he was covered with 318,000 behind in his stack.

Nguyen played with his chips and cards and stewed it over for a good while before eventually he folded and Francoeur took in a pot that sent her stack north of a million chips.

Amiryan Overcomes Bad Flop To Double

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Aram Amiryan raised from under the gun. The small blind called and the big blind Kevin Calenzo moved all in, which Amiryan called and the small blind folded.

Amiryan was in a good spot holding {a-}{k-} offsuit against the {a-}{q-} offsuit of Calenzo.

But the flop sent Calenzo into the lead as it came {q-}{j-}{3-}. The turn was a {k-} to make Amiryan emerge back on top. The river came a {a-} and Amiryan gained a big portion of chips.

The turn was the {j-Hearts}. Panjwani bet 125,000. Ros went into a long thought process before eventually folding and giving the nice pot to Panjwani.

Zigulis Shoves and Shows Red Rockets

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Zigulis then check-raise jammed from under the gun to turn the heat up on Francoeur who's stack was very close to Zigulis's. After about 30 seconds she laid it down.

Zigulis showed the {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} and took in the pot.

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action was on the turn on a board that read {8-Spades}{j-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}. Tai Nguyen moved all in and was instantly called by Peter Vitantonio.

Nguyen saw the bad news as Vitantonio tabled the straight with the {9-Hearts}{7-Spades} while Nguyen had the {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}.

The river was the {6-Hearts} and Nguyen was gone and all his chips were moved to the seat next to him to Vitantonio.

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Andrew Wall's short stack was at risk preflop holding the {k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} against the {q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} of Trung Pham.

The board stayed safe for Wall on the {6-}{8-}{j-} flop and the {6-} turn but not so much on the {q-} river as Pham got paired and eliminated Wall.

Zinno Surges Above a Million

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Anthony Zinno was seen collecting the rest of Sam Cosby's chips as the board read {10-}{a-}{k-}{4-}{5-}.

Zinno's {a-Spades}{6-Spades} was showing as the winner as the losing hand had already been turned over into the muck as Cosby waited for the payout slip.
