There was a raise from under the gun to 1,200, Boeree called on the button and the big blind also called. The flop was , the big blind checked, the initial raiser c-bet for 1,700, Boeree called as did the big blind. The turn card was the and this time Boeree had the opportunity to bet once checked to. She took it, bet 4,100 and only the initial raiser called. On the river we had the and the initial raiser checked very quickly. Boeree placed her chips in one tower and moved them all-in. The initial raiser asked for a count - it was 11,575 - and he made the call. Boeree flipped over for the winning hand and we couldn't see the initial raisers hand because the dealer accidentally mucked it.
The hijack opened up for 400 and Eric Froehlich moved all-in for 5,850 on the button. The player in the small blind called and the hijack moved all-in. A pained expression came over the face of the small blind as he realised he couldn't call for the rest of his stack. He placed his 5,850 in the middle and folded his hand leaving the pair heads up.

Yesterday was an amazing day for the WSOP with Phil Hellmuth and Phil Ivey both going heads-up for WSOP gold in their respective events. Phil Ivey came up short losing in the $10,000 Pot-Limit Hold'em event to Andy Frankenberger but Phil Hellmuth made it bracelet number 12 when he won the $2,500 Seven Card Razz event.
