Hand #51 - Dag Mikkelsen

Dag Mikkelsen opens to 290,000 and is called by the big blind, Matthew Woodward. It's a spade-a-pa-looza on the flop, {8-Spades} {J-Spades} {6-Spades}. Woodward checks to the stacked Mr. Mikkelsen, who makes the price of poker 380,000 then peeks back at his cards. Woodward calls to the turn, which is not another spade but was a big card -- the {A-Hearts}. Woodward checks a second time, prompting Mikkelsen to bet three-quarters of a million chips. Woodward is finally convinced to fold.

Hand #53 - Mikhail Tulchinskiy

Matthew Woodward is the button. He raises to 280,000. Dag Mikkelsen asks for a count but folds after hearing the number. Big blind Mikhail Tulchinskiy asks the same question about Woodward's stack before calling the raise. He checks a flop of {Q-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} to Woodward. He opts to bet about half of the pot, 300,000. Tulchinskiy leans forward in his seat, craning his neck to check out Woodward's stack. He then announces all in, having Woodward well-covered. Woodward swallows hard and folds.
