Travis Northrope bet 5,100 from middle position on an flop, and the player in the cutoff raised to 13,000. Eric Maier called from the button, and Northrope dropped a pile of red T,5000 chips into the middle. The cutoff moved in for approximately 76,000, and Maier asked if the raise covered the all-in player. It was just 60,100, so it did not, and Maier elected to fold, while Northrope called.

Maier was left lamenting his fold after the turned, saying he had , and a river preserved the all-in player's two pair.
"Still just one pair," Maier said of his correct fold.
Will Givens bet 5,000 on an board from the big blind after the small blind checked. Dan Grandestaff jammed from the hijack for 12,200, and the small blind made it 35,000 to go.

Reza Yazdi opened to 4,000 under the gun, and Mike Harris shoved all in from the small blind to put Yazdi at risk for about 100,000 total. That's where we found the defending champ, contemplating calling it off for a couple of minutes. Finally, he grabbed a stack of chips and forcefully placed them in the middle, spinning face-up behind them. Harris had him crushed with , though, and a brought little for Yazdi. The turn brought the sweat with a four-flush for Yazdi, but a red arrived to finish him.
A player limped in middle position, and the player on the button made it 7,000 to go. Mark Hodge moved in for 40,900 in the big blind, folding out the limper. The player on the button stood up and called after getting the count.
"Well, he didn't snap-call so I must be OK," Hodge said, flicking into the middle.

"That helps," Hodge said. The turn meant he had a winner.
Max Chrisp opened to 2,600 on the button and got a call from the small blind before the big blind made it 6,500 to go. Chrisp came along, as did the small blind.
