The player in the cutoff raised to 4,000 and Edgardo Rosario responded with a three-bet to 12,000 from the small blind. The cutoff pushed back with a four-bet to 27,000, Rosario five-bet all in, and the cutoff called off for around 65,000 total.
Edgardo Rosario:
Cutoff:
Rosario was in a bad spot but not after the flop came down to give him a set. Neither the turn nor river changed a thing and Rosario got the lucky knockout.

Solange Lucas was short-stacked in the hijack and moved all in for 11,500. Action folded to Jorge Gomez, who opted to call from the big blind.
Jorge Gomez:
Solange Lucas:
Gomez had a kicker problem and the flop didn't do him any favors except give him a backdoor flush draw. The turn took away that possibility, but it did put out some chop outs.
There would be no chop but it was even better for Gomez as the spiked on the river to pair his kicker. With that, Gomez sent Lucas to the rail.

Paul Smerdon raised to 7,000 under the gun and Zoltan Czinkota, who has been stuck in reverse as of late, called next to act. A player in middle position came along and it was three-way action to the flop.
Smerdon continued for 15,000, Czinkota called, and the other player folded to make it heads-up to the turn.
Smerdon wasted little time in moving all in and Czinkota thought for a bit before releasing.
