Josh Manley went heads-up with Abel Gongora to a flop with around 23,000 already in the pot. The flop came {q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{7-Spades} and Gongora checked from the small blind. Manley tossed in a bet of 6,500 in early position and Gongora called.

The turn was the {5-Hearts} and both players checked to the {6-Hearts} on the river. Gongora splashed in a bet of 28,700 which put Manley in the tank for a couple of minutes. He eventually laid his hand down and Gongora was awarded the pot.

Mateus Wins; Lappin Folds

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Carlos Da Costa raised it up from middle position and was called by Ricardo Mateus in the small blind along with the big blind. The flop came {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and the action checked to Da Costa who continued with a bet of 1,500. Mateus called and the big blind got out of the way.

The turn was the {2-Clubs} and both players checked to the {5-Hearts} on the river. Two more checks and Mateus turned over {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for two pair to scoop the pot.

At another table, David Lappin was part of a five-way hand heading to the flop of {q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. Lappin was the first to toss in a bet of 1,100 from the cutoff and the button raised to 3,000. The rest of the table folded and Lappin stuck around to see the {k-Hearts} on the turn. Another bet of 5,500 from the button on the turn was enough to get Lappin to muck his cards.
