: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Greg Raymer raised to 2,600 under the gun before Phong Nguyen three-bet to 11,700 in the cutoff. John Wilson was in the big blind and tanked for a few minutes before folding, while Raymer then moved all in. Nguyen quickly called for 38,700.
Phong Nguyen: J♥J♣ 
Greg Raymer: A♦K♦
Nguyen spiked a set on the Q♠2♦J♠ flop, while Raymer picked up a straight draw. The K♥ fell on the turn, while the Q♦ river improved Nguyen to a full house to secure the double up.
"I had pocket tens," Wilson admitted afterward.

A player under the gun raised to 5,000, Elia Ahmadian moved all in from middle position, and his opponent called for 60,000.
All-In Player: A♠K♥
Elia Ahmadian: J♠J♦
It didn't remain a race for long, as Ahmadian hit a full house on the J♥3♦3♣ flop. The turn was the Q♣. "Ten," the at-risk player said going to the 8♦ river as he was sent to the rail.
"Not that it would've mattered. Just for shits and giggles," he added.

Heads-up on a flop of 7♠9♦K♥, a player in the cutoff bet 6,000 and Mo Salem called in middle position.
The turn was the 2♣ and the cutoff moved all in. Salem quickly called for 14,600 and turned over A♣K♣ for top pair, and his opponent could only show A♠Q♣ for ace-high. The river was the 4♠, and Salem doubled up.

A player in early position bet 6,000 on a flop of J♣9♠J♥ and was called by Boris Kravets in middle position, another opponent in the hijack, and Daniel Vanscoy in the cutoff.
The turn was the 5♥ and the early-position player moved all in for 32,600. Kravets called, as did Vanscoy while the hijack got out of the way.
Kravets checked the 9♦ river, then snap-called when Vanscoy bet 30,000. Vanscoy turned over Q♠J♠ for a full house, while Kravets had the same full house with A♥J♦. The at-risk player flung A♦9♥ into the muck as he made his way to the rail.

Four-handed on a flop of Q♦10♣3♦, Frederick Schmidt bet 7,500 from the small blind before Steve Cho raised to 60,000 in the big blind. The table folded around to Schmidt, and he called for his last 30,000.
Frederick Schmidt: 10♦6♦
Steve Cho: Q♠Q♣
Schmidt had a pair and flush draw against Cho's top set, but the 3♠ turn left him drawing dead as Cho improved to a full house. The river was the 9♠, and Schmidt was sent to the rail.

Robert Rothenberger bet 6,000 from under the gun on a flop of 3♥2♠2♦ and Richard Ray called in the hijack.
Both players checked the 3♦ turn. Rothenberger then bet 11,000 on the 8♦ river, and Ray called.
Rothenberger showed 10♠9♦ for a bluff, while Ray turned over A♠5♠ to win the pot with ace-high.
