David Diaz raised from early position to 1,200. A player in middle position made the call and the bib blind did the same. The three players were all witness to a 
flop. It was here that the big blind checked and Diaz bet out 1,700. The middle position player made the call and the big blind threw out the white flag and folded.
The 
on the turn saw both players tap the felt for checks.
The 
on the river brought with it another check from Diaz, and a bet of 5,000 from his opponent. Three minutes drained off the clock before Diaz mucked his cards. Despite this small set back, Diaz still sits with around a healthy 85,000.

On the turn with the board reading 
, Maria Ho bet 3,800 and her lone opponent in the hand made the call to see the 
land on the river. Ho checked and her opponent bet 8,200. Ho made the call.
Ho's opponent turned over the 
for a pair of aces on the river with a king kicker. Ho showed better with the 
for two pair, fives and fours, and won the pot.

We just watched Brian Meinders rake in a handy little pot over at his table. By the time we arrived, there was a 
flop out on the felt and Meinders and two opponents were each committing 10,500. Meinders was in the big blind position, the small blind was still in the mix, along with a player in middle position. All three players then checked the 
turn and did the same on the 
river.
"I got a king," said Meinders.
That was enough to send the middle position's cards into the muck, while Meinders' other opponent waited a few moments before saying, "nut flush." It would have been a slow roll if that were possible, but the player turned over 
for a busted nut-flush draw.

for a pair of aces.
Taylor Paur picked up another pot on a 
flop. His opponent checked and Paur bet 5,250. His opponent folded and Paul has chipped up significantly since the start of play.

After an early-position player raised to 1,300, a player in middle position reraised to 3,600. Action folded to Maria Ho on the button and she reraised to 8,200. Play folded back to the three-bettor and he made the call.
The flop rolled out 
and the first player checked. Ho bet 9,000 and her opponent check-raised to 22,000. Ho folded and her opponent showed the
