Phil Galfond: {x-}{x-}/{j-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds}/{x-}
Michael Mizrachi: {x-}{x-}/{2-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}/{x-}
Eli Elezra: {x-}{x-}/{6-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Spades}{10-Hearts}/{x-}

Michael Mizrachi led out out sixth street, and Phil Galfond and Eli Elezra both called. Mizrachi thought it over for a minute before checking on seventh street, Elezra checked behind him, and Galfond put out a bet. Mizrachi called, and Elezra folded.

Galfond turned over {q-Spades}{k-Hearts}{10-Spades}, good for the king-high straight {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{9-Spades}.

Level 11 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Yueqi Zhu: {x-}{x-}/{3-Clubs}{6-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}/{x-}
Michael McKenna: {x-}{x-}/{k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}/{x-}

Yueqi Zhu increased the size of an already considerable pot with a bet on seventh street, and Michael McKenna raised. Zhu stood up and contemplated the decision for a bit before putting in the call.

Zhu threw down his cards in disgust when McKenna showed {9-}{5-}{j-Hearts}, good for the {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{9-}{5-Diamonds}{5-} full boat.

Ben Yu moved all in for his remaining 4,000 chips and Marco Johnson hooked him up.

Yu pulled a flush draw on the same street that Johnson found three queens. Sixth street filled up Johnson's queens and he now had Yu drawing dead to seventh street.
