A player in middle position raised to 1,200 and Dylan Linde called next to act. Jeremy Ausmus then three-bet to 4,000 from the button and the original raiser called. Linde then four-bet all in, Ausmus called off for 20,400, and the middle-position player folded.
Jeremy Ausmus: J♦J♣
Dylan Linde: 10♦10♠
Ausmus had the superior pocket pair and he shipped the double after the board ran out A♣Q♣5♣J♠2♣ tp improve him to a flush.
Chance Kornuth opened to 1,200 from middle position and received a call from Bill Klein in the hijack before Michael Berk three-bet to 5,200 from the cutoff. Kornuth folded while Klein made the call.
The flop came A♥Q♦8♦ and Klein check-called a 3,500 continuation-bet from Berk.
Both players checked the Q♠ turn leading to the 10♠ river. Klein bet 11,000, Berk shoved with a covering stack and Klein, who had around 25,000 behind, snap-folded.
Action was picked up on the turn in a pot between Hassan Tahsildar from under the gun and David Ha on the button with around 5,500 in the middle.
Tahsildar led with a bet and Ha responded with a jam for his remaining 9,000. Tahsildar did not take long before he stuck in the call and the hands were tabled.
David Ha: A♠10♣
Hassan Tahsildar: J♦10♦
Tahsildar held top pair while Ha just had ace-high and was drawing to three remaining outs. However, in miraculous fashion the dealer peeled the A♦ on the river to give Ha the river as he survived at the expense of a frustrated Tahsildar.
Terrance Reid opened to 1,300 from middle position before Shawn Buchanan three-bet to 3,500 from the hijack. With the action back on Reid, he decided to four-bet jam as the slightly covering stack for 20,500 effective and Buchanan snapped it off.
Shawn Buchanan: Q♠Q♥
Terrance Reid: A♣10♦
Buchanan was ahead with queens but Reid's ace was live. The K♦J♦8♠ flop gave Reid two additional gutshot outs but the 2♠8♦ runout sealed the double for Buchanan and left Reid on fumes.
