Niveau 17
: 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
2-7 Single Draw
With the smallest of stacks in front of him, Frank Kassela picked No-limit 2-7 Single Draw as the game and went all in for his last 9,000 chips on the first hand. All other players folded, and Kassela took down the blinds.
On the very next hand, Kassela shoved once again from the hijack and got a call in the big blind from Scott Clements. Both players tabled their hands, and Clements drew one.
Frank Kassela:

Yakovenko Still Climbing
Niveau 17
: 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Big O
A player opened for 6,000 in the cutoff and Nikolai Yakovenko potted to 21,000 on his left. The opener tanked awhile and called the shove for about 10,000 on the 
flop.
Yakovenko was in there with a snap-call for all but his last 3,000, holding 
for trips. He was fading diamonds as his opponent showed 
. The turn was a 
and the river a 
, so Yakovenko scored the knockout.
Yakovenko was down to his last 4,000 and peeling his last card behind in a draw hand a little before dinner, and has now got a very playable stack.

After the draw, Samuel Gorr shoved into two players. It was just over 9,000 into a pot of about 15,000. The first player snap-mucked but John Monnette needed longer. Gorr held out his cards as if he was ready and excited to flip them over. Monnette thought better of it and released.
