With around 20,000 in the pot, Avi Cohen and Brian Battistone went to the turn on a board of K♠8♣Q♣5♦. Cohen then bet 14,500 from the big blind and Battistone moved all in from middle position.
"This would be a light call," Cohen said as he tanked for a minute, but he eventually put in his last 43,000. Cohen showed K♦4♥, but Battistone had him out-kicked with K♣10♦. The river was the 6♠ and Cohen was sent to the rail.

Around 20,000 was in the pot as Victor Paredes and an opponent saw a flop of 7♥4♣2♥. Paredes then bet 15,000 on the button, his opponent raised to 30,000 in middle position, and Paredes called.
The turn was the 7♠ and the middle-position player moved all in. Paredes called for 27,000 with J♦J♥, while his opponent showed A♠K♦. The river was the 9♠ and Paredes' jacks stayed in the lead to earn him the massive pot and a double up.
Justin Young raised to 1,800 in middle position and was called by the hijack and cutoff before Dil Uhlin moved all in for 8,000 on the button. Young reraised to 15,000 and his other two opponents folded.
Dil Uhlin: A♦A♣
Justin Young: Q♣10♣
Young picked up a straight draw on the 8♦J♠6♠ flop, but Uhlin's aces remained in the lead through the J♦ turn and 8♥ river to earn him a double up.
Michael Russell was already all in for 7,500 from the big blind on a flop of 7♦6♣5♦ as Victor Shih raised enough in the small blind to put Yi Lin all in. Lin called for his last 37,400 in early position.
Michael Russell: J♠7♠
Yi Lin: 9♥6♥
Victor Shih: 5♥5♠
Shih was ahead with his set of fives as the 4♦ fell on the turn. The river was the 8♥ and Lin improved to a straight to scoop the pot, earning a double up off Shih while sending Russell to the rail.
Quinn Lowry and Alex Goya went heads-up to the turn on a board of 5♠7♣J♠9♦ with around 15,000 in the middle when Goya moved all in for 11,500 from the small blind. Lowry snap-called in the cutoff.
Goya showed A♠Q♦ for ace-high and was already drawing dead against Lowry's J♥9♥ for two pair. The J♣ river improved Lowry to a full house and sent Goya to the rail.
In a multi-way pot on a flop of A♥5♠7♠, chip leader Kyle Watanabe checked from the big blind and several players checked as Kimon Fountoukidis bet 3,000 on the button. Only Watanabe called.
Watanabe checked again on the K♣ turn and Fountoukidis sized up to 10,000. Watanabe laid it down.
