Daniel Carter was all in before the flop for 30,000 with {K-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, and Kristy Gazes was there to meet him with {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}. The flop was {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs} and turn {10-Diamonds}, and Gazes was still ahead. But the river was the {K-Hearts}, allowing Carter to double to 70,000. Gazes slipped to 46,000 on that one.

Soon after, Gazes pushed all in from middle position with {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}, and Miika Puumalainen was her opponent with {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}. The board came {2-Spades}{J-Spades}{9-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, and Gazes doubled back to 100,000. Puumalainen still has 375,000.
