Peter Chung opened the action with a raise to 1,000 in middle position. Josh Manley flat-called on the button before Mihail Zglavoci squeezed in a three-bet to 4,700 from the small blind.
Chung responded with a four-bet to 11,000, which quickly forced Manley out of the pot.
Zglavoci was not satisfied yet, however, and moved in his entire tack of 49,500. Chung snap-called, revealing the cards in the huge pot.
Mihail Zglavoci: A♦A♣
Peter Chung: K♦K♣
Chung turned some extra outs on J♦9♥J♥10♦, but the 8♥ river was of no use to him. Zglavoci doubled to a six-figure stack, leaving Chung with 15 big blinds.

Jack Dean got his stack of 29,500 in preflop and was at risk against Peter Flynn.
Jack Dean: A♥A♣
Peter Flynn: A♠K♣
Flynn flopped some hope on Q♠10♣5♠. The 4♦ turn nullified his backdoor flush draw, and his gutshot failed to come in on the 10♠ river, seeing Dean double up to a healthy stack of 125 big blinds.

Peter Chung raised to 1,300 under the gun, K.L. three-bet to 3,000 in early position, and Josh Manley four-bet to 7,800 in the hijack. Chung quickly got out of the way, after which K.L. called.
K.L. check-called again when Manley bet 5,000 on the 7♣J♣9♦ flop, but he eventually check-folded when Manley moved all in for 21,100 on the 7♥ river.
