Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
A player in middle position opened to 1,000, and received calls from Jesse Lane in the cutoff and a player in the big blind.
The flop came A♣K♣7♥. The big blind checked, and the original opener fired a 1,500 continuation bet. Lane raised to 3,500, the big blind folded, and the middle position player three-bet to 10,000. Lane shoved for 29,500, and his opponent called with a covering stack.
Jesse Lane: A♥A♦ 
Opponent: A♠K♦
Lane had flopped top set, leaving his opponent drawing virtually dead with top two pair. The rest of the board ran out Q♠8♣, securing the double for Lane.

: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
With the board reading 5♠9♠4♥ and around 6,000 already in the middle, a player in the hijack checked, Gary Thill bet 4,200 from the button, and the hijack called.
Thill continued for 10,000 when checked to on the 3♦ turn, and the player in the hijack snap-called. On the 8♦ river, the hijack shoved for around 14,000, and Thill called with a covering stack after taking about a minute to consider the decision.
The hijack showed an overpair with 10♠10♥, but Thill showed a higher pair with Q♠Q♣ to win the hand.
