Ty Kohler opened the action with a raise to 5,000 before he was called in the cutoff. The small blind elected to go all-in and was called by Kohler. The cutoff folded to create a showdown between Kohler and the small blind.
Opponent: A♥Q♣
Ty Kohler: K♦K♥
Kohler held a healthy lead over his opponent. The flop only improved Kohler to a set of kings when it came K♠8♦10♠, but his opponent improved to a straight draw to still have some outs to crack Kohler's kings.
The 10♦ sealed it in Kohler's favor as it upgraded his hand to a full house. This proved critical as the J♦ peeled on the river to give his opponent a meaningless straight.

The hand began with a limp from under the gun before Rob Zack Grossglauser chose to raise to 6,000 from early position. The button and big blind both called, as well as the limper from under the gun.
The 8♠2♠J♠ flop resulted in a check before Grossglauser fired 3,000. He was only called by the player on the button, and the rest of the players folded.
Grossglauser kept up the pressure on the 8♣ turn with a larger bet of 15,000. This folded out his opponent as he took down the pot.
