Hand #111

Brian Rast had the button. He opened to 210,000, and Ahmed Owais three-bet shoved from the big blind. Rast released, and Ahmed won the pot.

Hand #112

Phil Hellmuth had the button. He limped in, Owais Ahmed completed in the small blind, and Minh Ly raised an additional 250,000. Only Hellmuth called.

The flop was {5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, and both players checked. The turn was the {k-Diamonds}. Ly led for 500,000, and Hellmuth clapped his hands loudly before folding.

Ly now has the chip lead, and the momentum.
