Max Sharpe opened to 1,500 in the cutoff before Thomas Parkes three-bet to 4,500 on the button. John Dorsey then moved all in from the small blind, and Sharpe let his hand go.
Parkes stuck in the call, and the hands were revealed.
Thomas Parkes: Q♠Q♦ 
John Dorsey: 10♠10♦
Parkes was pleased to see he was not flipping with Dorsey, and his queens held through the K♥9♣5♥K♣3♥ runout to secure the double.

Arnaldo Gordon opened to 1,500 in the hijack, and Zhenjie Hou made the call on the button. Vincent Pistorino stuck in his last 6,400 from the big blind, and Gordon four-bet to 16,500.
That forced Hou out of the pot, leaving Pistorino at risk heads up.
Vincent Pistorino: K♦7♦
Arnaldo Gordon: A♠A♥
Both players found pieces of the 7♥A♦4♠K♣J♦ runout, but Pistorino's two pair were not enough against Gordon's set of aces. That sent Pistorino back to the registration desk for a fresh starting stack.

Samuel Rosen raised to 1,200 in middle position, with Rabih Vargas making the call in the big blind.
Vargas checked the 7♠J♥7♦ flop, calling again when Rosen continued for 5,000. Another check from Vargas followed the J♦ turn, and Rosen fired again for 10,000.
That was enough to take down the pot, as Vargas let his hand go.
