On a heads-up turn of 6♣9♥4♥2♠, there was close to 430,000 in the pot when Sean Cha checked over to Carson Wieland, who thought for a bit before he checked back.
The river fell the 5♣ and Cha checked once more, then Wieland moved all in for around 400,000 and Cha promptly folded.
"Phew!" Wieland exhaled dramatically and wiped the invisible sweat from his brow as he was awarded the pot.
Daniel Anderson moved all in preflop, followed by a shove from James Galloway and a call from another player.
Daniel Anderson: A♥Q♠
James Galloway: A♠J♣
Opponent: K♥9♥
Anderson was in the lead with his ace-queen high, but the board ran out J♠8♠6♥4♠6♦ for Galloway to scoop the pot with his jack while Anderson hit the rail.

David Shaw limped the small blind, and then Wayne Xia raised to 100,000 from the big blind. Shaw then moved all in to cover, and Xia quickly called, putting himself at risk.
Wayne Xia: A♥J♠
David Shaw: A♣10♠
"Yes!" Xia celebrated and clapped when he realized he was ahead.
"Oh, I'm good by the end," Shaw replied with a smile, and sure enough, the flop came out ten-high to give Shaw the lead and when no jack appeared, Xia was sent to the rail.
"I gotta go pull that bounty now, after that hand," Shaw says and heads to the bounty drawing area, where of course, he pulls a $5,000 bounty.

after an open from Tao Zhang, Xiao Probst moved all in preflop for around 195,000. After some thought, Zhang called to put her at risk and the cards were on their backs.
Xiao Probst: A♣2♣
Tao Zhang: A♥9♦
The flop came out A♦10♥5♥ to give both players an ace, but Zhang was in the lead with his nine-kicker. The turn 6♠ changed nothing, but the river sure did as it came the 2♥ to give Probst the win with two-pair.

After an open to 65,000 from Cord Garcia, Derek Normand three-bet to 208,000 and then Kevin Kendrick 4-bet jammed for around 1,000,000, covering Normand. Normand thought about it for a few seconds before he made the call to put himself at risk of elimination.
Derek Normand: J♥J♠
Kevin Kendrick: A♦K♠
An ace appeared right in the window, but luckily for Normand, a jack came right behind it on the A♠J♣9♥ flop to give him a huge lead.
The turn 3♠ left Kendrick drawing dead and the Q♦ completed the board to award Normand the huge double.
"Bet your heart sank when you saw that ace," a player commented.
"I had faith," Normand simply replied as he chipped up to 1,600,000.
