, it appeared a player in middle position bet 10,000, which was met with a shove from the player on the button for 24,000. Amry Sroka went all in as well for 39,300 from the small blind and the initial bettor folded.
Amy Sroka: 
Button: 
Sroka was up against a better flush draw and was drawing slim. The 
turn changed nothing, however, a 
river improved Sroka to a pair of queens, sending her opponent to the rail in dramatic fashion.

Matt Lydon opened to 1,800 from under-the-gun and was three-bet to 5,000 by Jordan Hogans in the hijack. The big blind cold-called and Lydon then four-bet to 13,800. Undeterred, Hogans shoved for 78,000 total. The big blind quickly folded, as did Lydon after a bit of thought.
Hogans revealed he held 
as he scooped the pot.
