Myles Mullaly raised to 6,000 under the gun and [Removed:551] called from the cutoff. Conor Beresford squeezed back his cards in the small blind, then jammed for 20,500. Mullaly folded, but [Removed:552] called to put Beresford at risk.
Conor Beresford: A♥K♠
[Removed:551]: A♦10♦
Beresford's big slick had [Removed:552] dominated heading to the J♣2♦2♠ flop that improved neither player. The K♥ turn gave Beresford top pair, while [Removed:552] needed a queen to win the pot. A 5♣ fell on the river, and Beresford scored the much-needed double-up.

The action was picked up on a board of 6♣10♦Q♠7♥K♥ with approximately 30,000 in the pot. Thomas Eychenne in middle position bet 45,000, but Sam Lam on the button raised to 108,000.
Eychenne went deep into the tank and after two minutes, the clock was called. Eychenne grabbed some chips to see Lam's reaction, but eventually folded at the very end of the countdown.

Life Outside Poker is a podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 34th episode, Connor talks with WSOP free-to-play app ambassador Sam Abernathy about growing up in Georgia, studying design, the similarities between gymnastics and poker, finishing third in the 2016 Aussie Millions Main Event, and a notorious slow roll she suffered in that event.
Abernathy also talks about first getting into poker through the WSOP Play app before becoming an ambassador years later, motherhood and being married to fellow poker player Lautaro Guerra, who finished 15th in this year's WSOP Main Event for $450,000.
Takashi Yagura opened the button to 6,500 and Thales De Figuereido called from the small blind. Ren Lin was in the big blind and shoved 65,500, and Yagura didn't need to think for too long before he moved all in. Figuereido quickly folded.
Ren Lin: A♥3♠
Takashi Yagura: 10♥10♦
Lin rolled the dice with his ace, but ran into the pocket tens of Yagura. There was still a runout to come, but Lin didn't find much to work with on the K♠5♦5♠ flop. A J♥ on the turn put Lin one step closer to the door, and the 10♣ river sent him there as Yagura improved to an unneeded set.
After Lin had left, the pot was pushed to Yagura, who noticed a "No Gamble, No Future" patch mixed in with his newfound chips.
"Is this mine? Did I win a bounty?" he joked.

From under the gun, Jason Wheeler raised to 7,000 with Nima Jenabi calling out of the small blind, and Ronnie Lemmens defended his big blind.

The 7♣ hit the river and Jenabi checked the action over to Wheeler, who gathered together a bet of 40,000. Jenabi pondered for a while before making the call.
