Heads-up on a completed board of 5♣4♣6♣3♠2♥ with over 40,000 already in the middle, Robert Liu shoved for his last 25,700 from early position.
Louis Luo mulled over his decision before announcing, "If you flopped it you've got it," before putting in a single chip to indicate a call.
Liu had indeed flopped it, as he revealed A♣Q♣ for the flopped nut flush.
"If there wasn't so much already in the middle I wouldn't call," Luo said after showing he held 8♠6♠ for a pair of eights.

Armon van Wijk opened to 2,000 from early position and was called by Zhen Chen in the big blind.
Chen check-called a 1,200 bet from van Wijk on the A♦5♣3♥ flop and then both players checked on the 7♠ turn.
Chen put a hefty bet of 5,200 into the middle and van Wijk quickly called. Chen turned over A♥2♦ for aces-up, but Wijk tabled A♣10♣ for aces-up with a ten kicker to claim the pot.

Plus, Allen Kessler plays the piano, Chad shares highlights from his recent trip to the MSPT Running Aces, and the crew recap recent wins by Shannon Shorr, Matthew Wantman & Brandon Wilson at the U.S. Poker Open, as well as by Daniel Lowery in the Main Event of the RGPS Joplin.

Higor Seibel was already all-in preflop and at risk against Weiran Pu, who had Seibel covered.
Higor Seibel: A♣A♠
Weiran Pu: A♥K♥
Seibel was in commanding shape and the 3♦Q♥Q♦7♣6♠ runout provided Seibel with a sweat-free double up.

Higor Seibel opened to 2,000 on the button and found one caller in Louis Luo in the big blind.
Luo check-called a 1,800 bet from Seibel on the 3♦8♣J♠ flop and a 4,100 bet from Seibel on the A♦ turn.
Both players checked on the 8♥ river and Luo turned over K♠K♣. Seibel couldn't beat it and mucked — conceding the pot to Luo.
