Dylan Linde

Dylan Linde raised to 1,100 from early position and picked up two callers in David White and Yake Wu, who were in the small and big blinds respectively.

Both those players checked the 5♥A♦8♦ flop and Linde continued for 1,300. White folded but Wu called to see the 7♦ turn, which both players checked.

Wu checked for a third time on the Q♣ river and Linde thought for a bit before betting 6,500. Wu folded and Linde took down the pot without having to go to showdown.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

A preflop confrontation resulted in Michael Berk making a move for his last 28,000 and seemingly getting his hand caught in the cookie jar by Bill Klein

Michael Berk: K♠Q♠ All in
Bill Klein: K♥K♦

Berk was about to get up out of his chair but that changed when the flop fell Q♣Q♦9♦ to give him trips. The 6♦ turn kept Klein drawing live to a diamond, but the 6♠ river paired the board and improved Berk to a full house to ship the lucky double.
