What a difference a few hands can make. Just three hands ago, Tad Jurgens needed a non-pairing club on the river to avoid elimination. Now he has 800,000. He took down two more hold'em pots, one against Mitch Schock without showdown.
The other was once again against James Van Alstyne. Van Alstyne raised the cutoff, then called Jurgens' three-bet from the button. When the flop came ace-high,
, Van Alstyne went for the check-raise. Jurgens called.The
on the turn brought a bet from Van Alstyne and a call from Jurgens. Van Alstyne finally slowed down on the 
river, check-folding to a bet from Jurgens.Just like that, Jurgens has 800,000 chips. Talk about picking your spots!
