Two young players just pushed opponents out of the pot by firing multiple streets at nearby tables.

In one pot, Ryan Olisar watched an opponent check-call his 5,000 bet on a flop of {10-Spades}{j-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}. When the player checked fourth street ({4-Diamonds}), Olisar turned up the heat for 17,500. His opponent tanked for about two to three minutes before folding.

At a table caddy-corner from Olisar's, Joe Altomonte check-raised to 18,500 after his opponent bet 6,500 on with a community of {8-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. The player made the call, and Altomonte bet 22,000 on the end when the {3-Diamonds} fell. His opponent thought for a bit before folding his hand.
