Thodoris Bariampas raised preflop from middle position, after which Andrew Hulme three-bet from the hijack. Bariampas made the call, leading to 6,000 chips being in the middle.
Bariampas then check-called a bet of 2,000 from Hulme on the 9♦K♠2♥ flop, and did the same when Hulme sized up to 6,600 on the 10♣ turn.
Both players checked the J♦ river, and Hulme's A♠A♦ beat Bariampas' A♥K♥ at showdown.

On a completed board of 4♦7♣7♦9♦2♥, Dan Samson checked from middle position to Laurence Ryan in the cutoff. Ryan made a bet of 9,000 into the pot of 17,000 and sent Samson into the tank.
"Did you hit the flush?" Samson asked shortly before tossing in a call.
Ryan had indeed hit the flush as he tabled A♦2♦ and scooped a sizable pot to reach double the starting stack.

With 15,000 chips already in the middle, John Federico checked in the cutoff to Narcis Nedelcu on the button. Nedelcu made a bet of 10,000 on the 4♦J♠7♠Q♣Q♥ board, which Federico raised to 22,500, an all-in bet.
Nedelcu was barely covered by this all-in and went deep into the tank. "Will you show me one if I fold?" he asked after some time, to which Federico answered affirmatively.
After some more time, Nedelcu let his hand go and Federico showed the Q♠. "No good," Nedelcu concluded as the pot was shipped Federico's way.

Dan Laidlaw had open-raised from the hijack, after which Wouter Beltz put in a three-bet to 2,500 from the small blind. Laidlaw responded by reraising to 5,500, and Beltz made the call.
On the 5♥K♠2♣ flop, Beltz check-called the 2,500 bet Laidlaw put in, after which the Q♦ turn and J♠ river were checked down.
Laidlaw showed K♥6♥ for top pair, and Beltz could only nod his head as he relinquished his cards and the pot.
