Juan Lyons moved all in for around 27,000 from the button and Vivian Saliba called in the hijack.
Juan Lyons: A♦3♦
Vivian Saliba: A♣Q♣
Saliba had Lyons dominated as the flop came J♥4♣4♥, opening the possibility of a chop. The turn was the 3♥ and Lyons spiked two pair to move into the lead.
"That's even better," Saliba told him as the 7♣ completed the board, earning Lyons a double up.
Darren Delahunty raised to 3,500 in the cutoff and was called by Timothy Slater on the button and big blind Mark Rubbathan.
Rubbathan led out for 4,000 on the 5♠2♥4♠ flop and only Delahunty called. Rubbathan checked the 9♣ turn and Delahunty bet 7,200.
Rubbathan called and the 6♥ fell on the river. He checked again and Delahunty moved all in for 27,000. Rubbathan spent more than a minute in the tank before calling.
"Good call," Delahunty said as he tossed K♠10♠ into the muck. Rubbathan showed A♠5♣ for a pair of fives to win the pot and send Delahunty to the rail.

Dean Hutchison: Q♠Q♦
Yucel Eminoglu: A♠K♠
The flop came 6♦3♦K♣ and Eminoglu took the lead with a pair of kings. The 6♠ turn was no help to Hutchison, while Eminoglu improved to two pair on the A♣ river to secure the pot. The stacks were counted down and Hutchison had 47,500 remaining. Eminoglu barely had him covered and sent Hutchison to the rail.
Yucel Eminoglu raised to 3,500 in early position and James Bott called in the big blind.

The river was the J♥ and Eminoglu bet another 7,200. Bott snap-called. "You win," Eminoglu said as he mucked while Bott showed 10♥8♣ for two pair as he took the pot.
