for two pair was good, and he's now at over 80,000.

Ben Vinson led out for 1,475 on the turn of a 


board; his opponent on the button called.
The river was the
and this time Vinson bet 6,000 with just 4,300 behind. His opponent called, but was not happy when Vinson showed him 
for the rivered full house. He threw down the
and muttered to himself, but it didn't do any good - Vinson took the pot (he made a valiant attempt to look like he was sorry even though he clearly wasn't) and is back up to 27,000.
PCA Champion Galen Hall just survived a bit of a scare, all in with 
against 
with the board coming 


...but the river was the
and instead he picked up a small increse in his stack.

Per Linde got his way preflop (possibly) after a bunch of raise-re-raise posturing from the rest of the table. Victoria Coren started it off with a raise to 500, called by Ben Vinson. Linde then repopped it to 2,000, and the button called this threebet. Coren passed, but Vinson slowly counted out another raise - 5,700.
Showing not the faintest surprise or worry (as is usual), Linde calmly moved his whole 30,000 in, and was rewarded with two quick passes and some showdown-less chips.
A surprised Markus Golser prised over 10,000 from opponent Martin Valle having flopped quad aces just now. The turn gave the board a double pair: 


and Golser bet out 2,800 more (we missed who bet the flop). Valle instacalled and saw the pretty irrelevant
river.
Now Golser checked out his remaining 18,000 and then bet 6,200 of it. Again he was pretty much snapped by button Valle who showed 
to Golser's 
.
"It's not a flop you'd think you'd get a lot of money off," admitted Golser (stacking 37,500 total).
Tobias Peters, good-humoured Dutch tank-tapper helpfully added, "He doesn't play queens like this!"
Xuan Liu (small blind) had bet out on the 

flop and Alexander Roumeliotis (big blind) had called before we arrived; when got there the
turn had been dealt and Liu was betting out 975. Roumeliotis raised to 3,025 and after a bit of a pause, Liu called.
The river was the
and this time both players checked. Neither player wanted to turn their cards over; Roumeliotis actually went to open-muck before thinking better of it and turning over 
, just in case. Liu had him just pipped with 
though, and is now up to 45,000. Roumeliotis is down to 21,000.
