Three ways to the 10♠4♥3♣J♥ turn, ama58 bet 6,000 and was called both ways. He then bet the 6♠ river for 10,000 and one opponent folded. The other moved all-in for little more than the bet and ama58 called with the A♥J♦ for the top pair. That was good enough to win the pot versus 10♦9♠ for second pair.

With most of the chips in preflop, a shorter stack then got the last few in with J♦10♦ which was good enough for top pair on the 10♠7♠3♦ flop. Onishi looked them up with the 9♦9♠ and found more equity on the 8♥ turn. The river was the J♠ and Onishi improved to a straight.

nako1120 bet the K♦10♣3♦ flop for 1,500 and was called by her immediate table neighbour. She then also bet the Q♦ turn for 6,600 and the 3♥ river for 8,500. Both times, the call followed and she tapped the table while exposing her A♠K♠. However, that was the best hand as Q♠J♥ were no good.

Takaa7 was spotted raking in the chips of two eliminated players and the dealer just killed the board which contained the 10♦. That very card gave takaa7 a set with 10♠10♣ to beat A♥Q♣ and Q♠Q♥ in order to reduce the field by two contenders.
