Level 7 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

In the first hand, Lei Yu was already all in against Calvin Lee on a completed board of 2♠3♥10♣10♠6♥. Lee had the A♥A♦ in front of him, which was no good against the 2♦2♣ of Lee for a set of deuces to award him the double up holding 80,500.

A few hands later, Yisha Chen called in the small blind and Lee shoved for his last 23,000 in the big blind. Chen called and a showdown was held.

Calvin Lee: K♠Q♥All in
Yisha Chen: 10♣8♣

The 9♥9♠6♥ flop and 4♦ turn were safe for Lee, but the 8♠ river paired Chen's eight to eliminate Lee late in the evening.

Patrik Demus opened to 8,000 from early position and found one caller in Stephen Song in the big blind.

Song kept his foot on the gas for a 75,000 bet on the J♥ turn and Demus again called.

The 3♣ filled the board out and Song checked. Demus put 55,000 into the middle and Song responded by sliding a stack of t-25,000 chips into the middle, which was enough to put Demus all in.

Demus quickly laid his hand down and Song was awarded the sizable pot.
