Level 1

Razz

Phillip Hui: {X-} {X-} / {5-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} - fold on fifth street
Yuebin Guo: {X-} {X-} / {4-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} / {X-} - fold on seventh street
Andrey Zaichenko: {X-} {X-} / {8-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{9-Diamonds} / {X-}

Andrey Zaichenko completed with an eight showing and picked up calls by Yuebin Guo and Phillip Hui. Zaichenko bet all further streets. While Hui folded on fifth street, and Guo also did so on seventh street to award the pot to Zaichenko without showdown. Guo finished seventh in this very event one year ago, while both of his opponents already have one WSOP bracelet to their names.

Limit Hold'em

Out of the small blind, George Wolff raised and Peter Neff in the big blind called. Wolff checked the {Q-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop and called a bet by Neff before the {3-Clubs} turn and the {K-Clubs} river were checked. Wolff showed {A-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for the nut flush and Neff mucked.

On a different table, Iraj Parvizi and John David Rogers got into a four-bet pot in a battle of button versus small blind, and Rogers called the four-bet, then checked the {A-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop. On the {2-Diamonds} turn, Rogers checked once more and folded to a bet by Parvizi.

Limit Hold'em

Action folded around to Adam Owen on the button, and he bet before Fabrice Soulier raised and Owen called. The Brit then called a bet on the {a-Spades}{10-Spades}{a-Clubs} flop before again calling for 1,000 on the {3-Clubs} turn.

The river fell the {5-Spades}, and Owen called for the third time, tabling {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} and beating Soulier's {j-}{8-}.

Seven-Card Stud Hi-Lo

Mike Leah: {X-} {X-} / {6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} / {X-}
Eric Kurtzman: {X-} {X-} / {2-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades}{6-Hearts} / {X-}

On the tail end of a heads-up hand between Mike Leah and Eric Kurtzman, the former checked on seventh street and Kurtzman bet. Leah gave it some thought and called to see Kurtzman admit, "Good call, I only have the low," before turning over his {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades}. Leah rolled over the {8-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} for a pair of sevens and won the high pot.

Level 1

Perry Friedman was the first player to sit down before the cards got in the air and was somewhat surprised to see nobody else in sight. However, that soon changed with plenty of other notables to take their seat in quick succession to get things started.
