Ollie Garland

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Tiago Aguiar Ramos raised to 2,000 from middle position and Kyriakos Papadopoulos defended in the big blind.

The 4♥5♠8♥ flop saw Papadopoulos lead out for 1,800. Ramos made the call.

Matt Warburton

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Vasyl Palandiuk shoved all in from under the gun for 10,800 and action folded around to Daisuke Ogita, who made the call on the button with a much bigger stack. Players turned their cards.

Vasyl Palandiuk: K♠10♠
Daisuke Ogita: 7♠7♦

The flop came 6♠A♥9♠ to give Palandiuk a flush draw along with overcards to his opponent's pocket pair.

"Too many outs," said Palandiuk as the turn came the 9♣. "Yes, I know, too many outs," he said again and stood up to leave. The river came the 2♦ and Ogita held to win the pot, sending Palandiuk to the rail.

Tyler Foran

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Luis Pinho already had 6,000 across the line from the cutoff and faced a raise to 13,600 from Olga Iermolcheva on the button. After about 30 seconds, he made the call.

The Q♣J♣6♦ flop received checks from both players, and the 8♦ landed on the turn where Pinho check-called a bet of 5,500.

The 5♦ completed the board, and both players tapped the table. Pinho rolled over the 9♣9♠ before Iermolcheva showed A♠J♠ for a pair of jacks.
