Bill Klein: 
Opponent:

The flop came out 
, and Klein went all-in, having his opponent well covered. The short-stacked player had 11,000 left behind and made the call, and saw that his middle pair was in bad shape against Klein's pair of aces.
The turn came a favorable for the opponent, however, and the trip queens held up on the river 
.

Jennings Doubles through Donen
Niveau 6
: 300/500, 500 ante
Drew Donen, resplendent in shimmering green and blue sequins, had been steadily building all day, but has taken a hit having flopped two pair against the straight/flush combo draw of Cheryl Jennings.
With a multiway pot of a few thousand built already preflop, the 
flop was checked to Donen who fired 1,100. Over to Jennings, who moved the rest of her stack - 14,400 total - across the line. It only took a moment for Donen to announce, "I call," and turn over 
for top and bottom pair. Jennings showed down 
for the diamond flush draw and bottom end straight draw.
Straight away she hit a fifth diamond with the 
on the turn, and the river was no house-up card for Donen.

Hoyng Nears Six Figures
Niveau 6
: 300/500, 500 ante
Karen Hoyng has consolidated her chip lead at table 30 (and possibly in the whole Silver Section) by eliminating a player with a queens vs. ace-king preflop all-in matchup. Betting started with Hoyng under the gun, who made it 2,500 to play. A player in mid position called, then saw Seat 2 move in for 13,700 and Hoyng make the call, with plenty left behind to cover the middle caller. After a short think, he folded, and it was 
vs. 
all the way to the river.
There was a heart flush draw sweat on the turn: 
, but the 
river eliminated her opponent and boosted Hoyng's stack to just under 94,000.
