On a heads-up flop of 3♣5♦J♥, Trevor Brown checked to Daniel McGee, who bet 15,000. Brown then check-raised to 37,000, which McGee called to see the turn 2♠.
The action then went check-check and the two players went to the river 10♣.
Brown then announced a bet of 37,000 and McGee snap-called.
"Ten," Brown announced, but McGee responded by flipping over K♣J♣ for a pair of jacks to take the pot.

On a heads-up turn that read A♥4♥Q♣3♥, Ralp Smith checked, James Allen Turner bet 55,000 into the pot of around 110,000, and Smith called.
The river fell the 8♥ and Smith immediately flung out a heft bet of 170,000, which produced a fold from Turner.
"Nice catch, felt like kings with the king of hearts," Turner said and shook his head as the substantial pot was slid over to Smith.

Simpson also discussed the importance of being a responsible poker ambassador and how science can change the world for the better.

After an open to 16,000 from Sanjay Kochhar, James Hartigan moved all in for 36,000. The action folded back around to Kochhar who made the call to put the PokerStars Ambassador at risk.
James Hartigan: A♣7♣
Sanjay Kochhar: Q♦2♠
Hartigan would need to hold with his ace-high to stay alive, but the flop spelled disaster for him as it came J♥Q♠9♠ to give Kochhar the lead with his queen. The runout of 8♦7♦ failed to save Hartigan and he was sent to the exit while Kochhar added to his stack.
