We were walking by the table as a big pot was being shipped to Sam Cohen. We didn't see how the hand progressed but we did catch the {q-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{7-Hearts} board, the two black queens in front of Cohen and a lot of chips in the pot.

Kampanatsanyakorn looks to make another run

Jimmy Pan, a former APPT Macau runner up, raised to 1,800 and he was called by last year's runner-up in this event, Chane Kampanatsanyakorn. Another player joined the action and the flop brought out {8-}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}.

Pan bet and Kampanatsanyakorn called, according to the Thai player, and on the turn, when a {10-} popped up, the remainder of the chips went into the pot.

Pan tabled {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for a straight and flush draw, but he was already drawing dead against Kampanatsanyakorn's {4-}{4-}. Pan was knocked out and Kampanatsanyakorn sits on a good stack heading into the final stages of the day.

Shaq: {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}
Akashi: {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}

Shaq was looking for some help but came up empty-handed when the board ran out {9-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. Akashi took the pot, sending Shaq to the rail.

Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand 'ElkY' Grospellier just moved all in over a raise worth 2,000 and the action quickly folded back to the initial raiser. Grospellier was all in for 14,400 and after a while his opponent made the call.

Grospellier: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

The board ran out {J-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Spades} and the French superstar received a full double up while still remaining short of the current average.

Juicy Jams on Honeyman

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante
Sixiao 'Juicy' Li
Sixiao 'Juicy' Li

Juicy Li raised to 1,700 from middle position and Ryan Pignatelli called from her immediate left. Dylan Honeyman was next to act and he three-bet to 5,200 and quickly the action folded back to Li.

Li, who made the final table of this event last year placing in sixth, tanked for a bit before making the call. Pignatelli folded and the action went heads up to the flop.

The flop brought out {3-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{8-Spades} and Li lead out for 6,500 and Honeyman made the call. On the turn the {2-Diamonds} hit and Li moved all in for 23,200, which put Honeyman into the tank for quite a while. Eventually Honeyman folded and Li raked in this hefty pot.
