Nakia Clark from the hijack and Richard Clayton from the button were tangled in a three-bet pot with nearly 45,000 chips in the middle.
With the completed board reading A♣J♦7♠2♥9♥, Clark checked a final time to Clayton who took quite some time before he elected to check back.
Nakia Clark: J♥J♠
Richard Clayton: A♠2♠
Clark had flopped middle set while Clayton turned aces-up but made a prudent check back on the river.
"You three-bet that hand?" an astonished Clark joked, "And then you check back on that board?"

Action picked up on the turn in a hand between a player from early position and Tyler Patterson on his left with the board reading 10♥8♣2♠J♣.
The early position opponent bet 5,500 before Patterson put out a stack of brown T-5,000 chips to ask for the rest of his opponent's stack. After a short tank, he called off his stack for roughly 19,000 total.
Early Position: A♠Q♦ 
Tyler Patterson: A♥J♠
Patterson paired his kicker on the turn to take the lead and his opponent called off his entire stack with the gutshot and overcards. The river was the 7♠ and Patterson held on to score the elimination as his stack grows to over 200,000.

Spencer Simpson opened from the hijack and was flatted by a player on the button. The big blind then jammed for 22,600, Simpson rejammed for slightly more, and the button folded.
Big Blind: 4♠4♥
Spencer Simpson: K♥J♠
It was a coinflip scenario until the K♦10♣8♣ flop vaulted Simpson into the lead. Nothing changed on the 6♠A♠ runout, and Simpson nearly doubled his stack while eliminating a player.
