McCauley Collects All the Eights to Bust Shingala
Level 4
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
On a heads-up flop of 3♦8♠7♥, Christopher McCauley check-called a bet of 4,000 from Vivek Shingala to see the 8♣ peel off on the turn.
McCauley checked again, and Shingala continued for 9,500, which Mcauley called after some pause. The river fell the 7♠, double-pairing the board and McCauley checked once more. Shingala then downbet to 6,000, to which McCauley responded by putting him all in. Shingala thought about it for a second but made the call and tabled A♠A♣ for top two-pair, but it was no match for McCauley's quads with 8♥8♦.
Mcaulety was awarded the pot to boost him up to over 70,000 while Shingala was sent to the rail.

Perfect Turn Card for Hoang
Level 3
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
On a heads-up turn of J♠6♣7♠A♥, the pot had around 20,000 in it when Tri Hoang checked, his opponent bet 5,200, and then Hoang check-jammed for 16,500 total.
After some time in the tank, his opponent made the call, putting herself at risk and tabled A♣Q♣ for top pair of aces. Unfortunately for her, Hoang flipped over A♦7♦ for two pair and the lead. The river bricked with the 5♣ and Hoang was awarded the pot while the other player made their exit.
