On a multi-way flop of 3♠6♦9♥, there was around 17,000 in the middle when David Ong led for 5,000 and was called by Michael Sy and Bradley Heinsohn, but then Joe Toney moved all in for 18,200.
Ong then moved all in for a little more and Sy called to put both at risk while Heinsohn got out of the way.
Joe Toney: J♥9♠
David Ong: 5♠5♥
Michael Sy: 8♣9♣
Toney was in the lead with pair of nines, jack-kicker, and the runout of 3♣J♠ only improved him to jacks and nines to take the main pot while Sy took the side to eliminate Ong.

On a flop of J♥6♠10♣, all of the chips between Anthony Li and Douglas Apti found their way into the middle, with Apti at risk.
Douglas Apti: Jx10x
Anthony Li: A♠A♣
Apti was well in the lead with his top two pair, but the runout of 3♠3♥ was brutal as the board paired to give Li the superior two pair to send Apti to the rail.

On a multi-way flop of J♣Q♥2♥, Grey Wilson made it 5,100 to go and was called only by Teng Veng to see the turn K♣.
Wilson then announced a bet of 10,000, but then Veng quickly responded by moving all in, which Wilson snap-called to put him at risk.
Wilson quickly flipped over K♠K♦ for top set, but his stomach dropped when Veng rolled over A♠10♦ for Broadway.
The river 3♦ failed to pair the board and Veng was awarded the large pot for the double-up.

Tiger Orn: A♣K♥
David Stanford: J♦J♣
Stanford was in the lead with his jacks, and the runout of 3♠Q♣ kept it that way to award him the big pot and sent Orn to the rail.
