2025 SunBet Poker Tour Time Square
On a flop of K♣10♥3♥, Giovanni Gaggia got his stack into the middle with the K♥6♥ for top pair and the flush draw. Moon Khan looked him up with the A♦A♥ for the overpair and nut flush blocker. The 3♦ turn and 5♣ river brought no flush for Gaggia and his loud demands turned to silence.

Sean Bloom squeezed to 3,500 and then faced a reraise to 8,300 by Hennie Appel, which he reluctantly called. Appel bet the K♦4♥3♦ flop for 13,500 and Bloom instantly folded.

Three players had 900 chips out in front and Rex Hsu then reraised to 3,500. Gareth Kalil jammed for 22,500 and Hsu was the only caller with A♥K♠. Kalil's Q♦Q♥ took the flop and held thanks to a board of J♦6♣4♠5♠4♥ as he jumped back above the starting stack.

Four ways with 4,000 invested each to see the Q♦Q♣5♣ flop, the action checked around to the 9♣ turn. Adriaan Fourie checked the small blind and Banks Solomons bet 5,000 in the big blind. Giovanni Gaggia called all-in for that very amount, Okkie Fourie called as did the other Fourie.
They checked the 6♣ river and the first Fourie showed 8♠8♦, Solomons flashed the jack-high flush. Gaggia turned over A♣9♠ and it was good for the quadruple up, as Fourie mucked.

On the tail end of a A♠Q♥4♥9♥10♣ board, Eben Lottering bet 10,000 when checked to by Gareth Kalil. The latter reluctantly called and Lottering declared "jack high" before showing his J♥7♥ for a flush. "Two pair and the nut flush draw," Kalil said after conceding the pot.
