On a heads-up flop of Q♣2♦Q♦, Jon Lewis checked to the button, who bet 6,000. Lewis then check-raised to 20,000, which his opponent called to see the turn 9♥.
After some thought, Lewis placed out a bet of 56,000, which sent his adversary into the tank.
After almost two minutes of intense chip shuffling, the player eventually slid his cards to the muck and the pot was pushed to Lewis.

On a three-way flop of A♦3♣8♦, the action checked to Andrew Munchen who bet 20,000 and was called by Frank Grimes while the third player got out of the way.
On the turn 10♥, grimes decided to take the lead and bet out 20,000, which Munchen called. The river fell the K♣ and Grimes fired again for 30,000, which resulted in a fold from Munchen.
The players are now on their fourth break of the evening and will return to action shortly. The purple 500-chips will also be raced off and colored up at this time.
On a heads-up turn board that read 9♦Q♦3♥J♥, Jon Lewis got it all in against Samip Shah, who covered.
Jon Lewis: K♣10♦
Samip Shah: J♣9♣
Lewis was well in the lead with his nut straight, but still needed to fade the four full house-outs of Shah. Lucky for him, the river A♣ only improved him to Broadway and he was shipped the pot for a big double.
Left with less than a big blind, Shah exited shortly after.
A short-stacked player moved all in preflop and was called by Frank Grimes to put him at risk.
Player: K♥Q♠
Frank Grimes: 6♦6♣
The at-risk player would need to improve to stay alive in this flip, but the runout of 4♠10♠4♦10♣7♥ could not do it and he was sent out two spots from the money.
