Larry Carillo opened the action with a raise to 60,000 from early position before Colby Rowe chose to re-raise to 165,000 on the button. Vladyslav Shovkovyi wanted to play for it all and jammed for 465,000. Carillo folded, and Rowe made the call to put Shovkovyi at risk.
Vladyslav Shovkovyi: 10♥10♦
Colby Rowe: A♦10♣
The flop came Q♥J♠6♦ to give Rowe a straight draw to go with his ace outs. The 4♦ turn was of no consequence, and the 10♠ river sealed the deal in favor of Shovkovyi.
Marcus Garza drew the line in the sand when he shoved for 90,000 on the button. Jonathan Park made the call out of the big blind to put Garza at risk.
Marcus Garza: J♠9♣
Jonathan Park: Q♣2♠
The 9♠5♦5♥ flop was good news for Garza as he pulled ahead with two pair.
The 8♦ turn, and the 8♥ river did not alter the standings as Garza scooped the pot.
Bryan Mincher shoved for 330,000 from early position and was called by Jeffrey Hood from the hijack to be at risk.
Bryan Mincher: J♦J♠
Jeffrey Hood: A♣K♥
It was a classic race, and this time the pair won as it came 9♥9♦6♦2♠J♥ to award Mincher the double.
