Big Pot for Diaz

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

The player under the gun opened and it was called by two players, Guillaume Diaz on the button and the big blind.

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and after three checks, Diaz bet 5,000. Only the player in the cutoff made the call and both checked on the turn {7-Hearts}.

Things heated on the river when a {3-Spades} appeared. The cutoff bet 15,000 and Diza thought about his move for a minute before raising it to 100,000, putting his opponent's tournament at risk. The latter ended up calling all in and Diaz snap-tabled {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for the straight. His opponent mucked his hand and Diaz added the pot to his stack.

Leng Cracks Zhang's Aces

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

With already 14,500 in the middle on a flop of {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}, Ryan Leng was all-in against Chenxu Zhang for 10,100.

Ryan Leng: {a-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}
Chenxu Zhang: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

Leng was in pretty bad shape against Zhang's aces and the {6-Diamonds} on the turn was no help, but the {2-Diamonds} was the perfect river for Leng.
