Three-handed on a flop of J♠4♠6♠, Qing Feng Zheng bet 5,500 from under the gun and an opponent on the button called. Ali Abdulzahra then raised to 13,500 in the big blind and Zheng folded.
The button, though, moved all in for around 30,000 and Abdulzahra snap-called.
All-In Player: A♠Q♦
Ali Abdulzahra: 5♠2♠
The all-in player was drawing to a flush, while Abdulzahra had flopped a flush and needed to hold on to win the big pot. The 5♥ turn was safe, and so was the 7♥ river as Abdulzahra scooped in the pot and sent his opponent to the rail.

Gary Miller had built his stack up past 200,000 as he three-bet to around 12,000 in the small blind. Man Li then moved all in for 40,800 on the button and Miller called.
Man Li: A♦Q♣
Gary Miller: A♥2♦
"Please no bad beat," Li pleaded heading to the flop, which came J♦3♦K♥. Miller couldn't catch up on either the 8♦ turn and 4♥ river and Li earned a double up.

Anthony Toole was all in for his last 31,000 and up against Eliot Catterson.
Anthony Toole: A♦K♦
Eliot Catterson: K♥K♠
Toole had run into Catterson's kings and was looking to hit an ace to survive. One arrived on the Q♠3♣A♠ flop to give him the lead, and Catterson couldn't find his one-outer on the 2♦ turn or 7♥ river as Toole doubled up again.
"Welcome back, sir," another tablemate told Toole.

Four players went to the J♠Q♦9♥ flop where Dan Maunders led out with a bet for his last 6,100 in the small blind. The big blind called, as did an opponent on the button.
Both players then checked down the 7♥ turn and 4♦ river and Maunders showed Q♠5♥ for top pair that was enough to win the pot and triple up.
The next hand, Callum Gordon raised to 2,500 in middle position before Maunders shoved again, this time making it 26,000 on the button. Gordon snap-called.
Dan Maunders: J♠J♦
Callum Gordon: A♠K♠
Gordon hit his king on the K♥5♥9♠ flop, then improved to the nut flush as the board ran out 6♠5♠ to send Maunders to the rail.

Action folded to Constantin Erhan in the small blind who raised enough to put Anthony Toole all in from the big blind. Toole grabbed his stack using both hands and pushed it into the middle, calling for his last 17,100.
Anthony Toole: 8♦8♠
Constantin Erhan: Q♥10♣
"That's the best reaction ever," tablemate Abdullah Alshanti joked as Toole needed to win the flip to stay alive. The board ran out 5♦2♠4♥5♠2♦ and Toole's two eights stayed in front as he earned a double up.

On the first hand back from break, Dan Maunders raised to 2,500 in the cutoff before Jack Sambrook shoved all in for 18,000 in the big blind. Maunders took his time before calling.
Jack Sambrook: Q♦9♣
Dan Maunders: 6♦6♥
Sambrook took the lead on the 10♠A♥Q♠ flop with a pair of queens, and Maunders couldn't find any help on the K♠ turn or 5♠ river as Sambrook doubled up.
