Jaco Mouton bet the J♥6♠4♦9♣ turn for 100,000 and Trevor Rees called all-in. Mouton tabled the J♠9♥ and Rees needed help with the A♦A♥.
The 10♥ on the river was a blank and Rees departed, mumbling "you again, I should just try to avoid you" towards Mouton.
Damon Fine bet the A♠K♠4♦8♦ turn when checked to out of the blinds and his wager of 30,000 was called. Both players checked the 8♣ on the river and the player in the blinds simply mucked, allowing Fine to claim the pot without showdown.
"Why would I show you," they said with a smirk on the face.
Lissa Szymonowicz raked in a double with her cards and the board still exposed. On the 8♣8♥7♠A♣J♣ runout, her A♦8♦ was good for eights full of aces and Wesley Blom mentioned that Daniel Habib had a flush.
Alexander Rizvi raised to 8,000 with the A♠2♣ in the cutoff and Stephen Courtney three-bet to 29,000 out of the small blind holding the A♦Q♦. Jeebaun Singh only called out of the big blind with A♣K♥, forcing out Rizvi.
On the 8♥6♦5♥ flop, Courtney's bet of 30,000 was called and Courtney then bet the J♣ turn for 35,000. Singh had the best hand still but folded the ace-king high.
Chris Luyt made it 16,000 to go preflop and was called by Brett Kramer only. They checked the K♠Q♠8♠ flop and Luyt led the 10♦ turn for only 10,000. Kramer folded and was shown the Q♥.
Gregory Zetler raised to 10,000 with the 7♠7♣ and Stephen Courtney three-bet to 23,000 holding the A♥A♦ out of the big blind. They checked the A♣8♥2♣ flop to see the 8♦ turn on which Courtney bet 21,000 and Zetler called.
The possible flush completed on the 4♣ river and Courtney bet another 50,000. Zetler found the fold and Courtney extended his lead on the live stream table.
