In a topsy-turvy couple of hands, Jason Wheeler managed to lose half his chips and then double up his chips.

In the first hand, Noel Rodriguez moved all in from the button for 240,000, and Jason Wheeler isolated all in from the small blind with the superior stack.

Noel Rodriguez: J♦J♣ All in
Jason Wheeler: 7♥7♠

The board ran out with A♦3♦2♥6♣5♠, and Rodriguez would double his stack, and Wheeler was on life support.

In the second hand, Jason Wheeler moved all in from the button, and Justin Liberto isolated all in from the small blind for 280,000 effective.

Jason Wheeler: A♥Q♥ All in
Justin Liberto: K♦J♠

Wheeler's luck turned around on the second board A♣4♦A♦A♠5♦, and quads were good for the win.

Quads to Survive

Stoyan Madanzhiev found himself under the gun and raised to 60,000. On his direct left, cutoff Danny Wong shoved, covering the entire table. Madanzhiev had action after the blinds folded. He thought for a while, checked the payouts, and made the call.

Stoyan Madanzhiev: 9♣9♦ All in
Danny Wong: A♠K♣

The flop couldn't have been more of a sweat for either player, as it came down 3♠9♠4♠ giving Madanzhiev top set, while Wong had a flush draw. The turn 9♥ rendered the flush draw irrelevant, as Madanzhiev it quads and became unbeatable. The K♠ river was nothing but a needle to Wong

Victoria Livschitz shoved from the button for 540,000 and Anatoly Nikitin, who had her slightly covered, called from the small blind to put her at risk.

Victoria Livschitz: 6♠6♣ All in
Anatoly Nikitin: K♥Q♥

Nikitin had two overs and a gutshot on the A♠J♣9♠ flop but the 7♣ turn and J♠ river were clean for Livschitz and she doubled up, leaving Nikitin with less than one big blind.

Peter Sloman raised to 75,000 from the hijack, and Danny Wong moved all in for 375,000 from the small blind.

Sloman stated, "Alright, I call."

Danny Wong: 10♦10♠ All in
Peter Sloman: A♦Q♥

The monotone board gave Wong a flush draw and Sloman a pair of aces.
The board went A♠4♠8♠8♦J♠, and Wong hit his flush.

Sloman stated, "Good hand, so it's going to be that kind of day."
Wong replied jokingly, "Yes, it's going to be a day about winning races".

Huge Double for O'Donnell

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Pedro Neves got it all in preflop, with a covering stack against his opponent, Kenneth O'Donnell.

Kenneth O'Donnell: A♥Q♠ All in
Pedro Neves: A♠J♥

Neves was behind and in need of some help, but didn't get much on the 3♠3♥K♣ flop. However, the turn brought in the K♠ and the two players were headed for a chop pot. The river A♣ was a brutal one, as it improved both players' hands, but meant that the pair of threes on the board didn't play. O'Donnell outkicked Neves for the scoop.
