Hamby Puts Suyama to the Test
Jared Hamby opened for 2,800 from early position and received a call from Terrance Suyama in the hijack. The latter called a bet from Hamby on the 
flop, which lead to the 
on the turn.
This time Hamby opted to slow down with a check, only to check-raise all in when Suyama bet 8,500. To call would cost Suyama his remaining 28K, but he thought better of it and laid down his hand. With that, Hamby broke 90K.

Frankenberger Doubles a Short Stack
Andy Frankenberger opened for 2,500 from the hijack and action folded to a short-stacked Gabriel Torres in the big blind. He looked down at his own stack and decided it was the moment to commit. Frankenberger asked for a count, which turned out to be 5,400 total, and then made the call.
Showdown
Frankenberger: 
Torres: 
"Wow, you got it goodm" Frankeberger said after seeing they shared a six. The 
paired Torres, while the 
turn left Frankeberger drawing dead. "One of my favorite hands is 8-6," Frankenberger said after the 
was put out on the river. "Not in that spot," he added.
