Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Matthew Beinner raised to 11,000 under the gun and Mohammad Rohani called in the hijack. Chino Rheem was on the button and looked over at Rohani's stack.
"Oh, you raised and he called," Rheem said, finally noticing that Beinner had been the one to raise. He called, and they went three-handed to the 10♦6♥5♥ flop.
Beinner checked to Rohani who bet 17,000. Rheem called, but Beinner raised to 52,000. Rohani then moved all in for 124,000 and Rheem let out a laugh before folding, while Beinner snap-called.
Mohammad Rohani: J♥8♥ 
Matthew Beinner: 6♣6♦
Beinner had flopped a set, while Rohani was chasing a flush draw. The turn was the A♠, while the 3♠ river failed to improve Rohani and he was sent to the rail.
"So happy you raised the flop. I had ace-ten. If you just call the flop, you get mine as well," Rheem said to Beinner.
"I'm not greedy. I'm happy with just the one," Beinner replied.

Jeremy Becker and Cherish Andrews got all of their chips in the middle preflop and it was Becker who was at risk for around 105,000.
Jeremy Becker: A♣J♣
Cherish Andrews: 6♥6♣
"It's a classic!" Becker could be heard shouting in the room. The flop came Q♥10♠6♦ which vaulted Andrews into the lead with a set of sixes. "Not so classic anymore," Becker announced.
The turn was the 2♠ and the river was the 5♠ which sent Becker to the payout desk, leaving him wondering, "When will it ever end?"

Daniel Samson: Q♥10♥
Yansong Kou: K♣Q♠
Both players had flopped top pair, but Kou was ahead with her king-kicker. Samson couldn't catch up on the 4♠ turn or 6♠ river, and Kou sent another player to the payout desk.

Eric Baldwin opened to 10,000 in middle position and Joe Serock jammed all in for his last 42,000 on the button. The action was back on Baldwin who flicked in a chip to call.
Joe Serock: 7♠7♦
Eric Baldwin: A♠K♠
The flop of 3♥2♣2♦ boded well for Serock with the pocket pair. However, the A♣ on the turn put Baldwin way out front. The 4♣ completed the board and Serock was bounced from the Main Event.

Joey Weissman: A♣K♣
Yansong Kou: A♠10♠
Weissman had Kou dominated as the J♣8♦9♠ flop gave her outs to a straight, and she hit the straight on the 7♦ turn. The river was the 8♠ and Weissman was sent to the rail.

Carl Shaw and Joshua Mammen saw the turn on a board of Q♥10♥6♥7♥ when Shaw bet 50,000 from the hijack. Mammen called under the gun.
The river was the 5♣ and Shaw bet another 150,000. "I have the king," Mammen said as he let out a big sigh.
Mammen took a minute before tossing the K♥ into the muck. Shaw went to return his cards face down, but the table implored him to show and he finally obliged by flashing the A♥.
"You deserve the patch," tablemate Thomas Boivin said to Mammen after his big fold.

Jonathan Wang raised to 10,000 from under the gun and was called by Richard Green on his left and Michael Berk in the big blind. The flop came Q♥J♣3♠ and the action checked to Green who bet 18,000. Berk quickly folded but Wang called to see the 7♥ on the turn.
Both players checked and the J♥ paired the board on the river. Wang led out with a bet of 20,000 and Green quickly called. Wang showed Q♠8♠ for two pair but Green held Q♣9♣ for the same two pair but one kicker better.
