Tyler Boyer

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Seonguk Huh limped in under the gun, before Mikhail Volfson raised to 5,000 in the hijack. It folded back to Huh who made the call.

Both players checked after the 6♠Q♥7♠ flop, which brought the 6♥. Volfson then called a bet of 3,000 from Huh.

The river brought the 7♣ and both players checked to showdown. Volfson announced, "Kings," and tabled A♣K♠K♦J♦ to take the pot, as Huh mucked his hand.

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jake Parsons opened from the cutoff and Alexander Haber made the call on the button. Ren Lin defended his big blind and the dealer fanned out the J♠2♥Q♠ flop.

"One Lady Gaga," said Lin and he checked. Parsons and Haber followed with checks to see the 2♣ turn. Another round of checks saw the J♥ hit the river, where Lin checked one last time.

Parsons bet 3,000 and Haber called. Lin quickly got out of the way and Parsons turned over A♦J♦10♠3♦ for trip jacks with an ace. Haber showed king-jack and slid his chips to the right.

Newly-crowned $50,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship winner Stephen Chidwick opened to 5,600 in early position and Boban Zhivkovikj called on his left. Alexander Haber came along in the cutoff, as did Ren Lin in the small blind.

The 10♥5♠2♥ flop saw all four players check around and the dealer revealed the 6♦ turn.

Lin checked, followed by Chidwick and Zhivkovikj. Haber asked for a count of the pot and slid 25,600 into the middle. That produced quick folds from all three opponents, including Zhivkovikj who showed K♠K♦ as Haber took it down with no further action.

Action folded to Sean Winter in middle position who limped in, as did Lautaro Cabrerizo in the hijack and Daniel Zack on the button. Bernd Gleissner then raised to 8,000, and after the blinds folded, all three players called.

The flop came 6♥9♥4♥ and all four players checked to the 3♣ on the turn. Winter and Cabrerizo checked before Zack bet out 5,500. Gleissner folded, and Winter raised to 17,500. Cabrerizo got out of the way, and Zack made the call.

After the A♦ on the river, Winter moved all in for 36,300, which Zack snap-called and tabled A♥Q♥7♠6♦ for the nut flush. Winter showed 10♠10♣2♠2♥ as he tossed his cards in the muck.
