No-Limit Hold'em

Timofey Kuznetsov jammed for his last 117,000 from the cutoff, and David Oppenheim called on the button.

Timofey Kuznetsov: {a-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
David Oppenheim: {k-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Oppenheim paired up on the {10-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop, leaving Kuznetsov looking for an ace to survive. He picked up two more outs when he paired up on the {4-Spades} turn, but the {j-Diamonds} river bricked off, leaving Kuznetsov to say, "Good game," to the table before departing.

2-7 Triple Draw

Bryce Yockey saw action folded to him in the small blind and he raised. Phil Hui defended his big blind. On the first draw, Yockey took one and Hui two. Yockey continued and Hui called.

Both players took one on the second draw and Yockey checked. Hui bet and Yockey called. Yockey took one on the final draw again and Hui stood pat behind him.

On the river, Yockey bet out. Hui unenthusiastically called.

Yockey tabled {8-}{7-}{5-}{4-}{3-}. Hui turned over {8-}{6-}{5-}{4-}{3-} for a better eight.

"Who needs a deuce?" Yockey joked as Hui raked in the pot.

Stud Hi-Lo

Dario Sammartino: {x-}{x-} / {4-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} / {x-}
Phil Hui: {x-}{x-} / {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{a-Spades} / {x-}

Dario Sammartino was facing a bet on the river from Phil Hui with bets in front of each player from every prior street. After giving his decision some thought, he made the call.

Hui turned over {7-Spades}{3-Spades}{a-Clubs} for a wheel, stating that he had made it by fifth street.

After the hand, there was a small discussion about the call. Hui asked Sammartino if he had another three underneath, indicating that Sammartino made the call knowing three of the four threes in the deck were accounted for. Sammartino confirmed and Hui affirmed that Sammartino had to make the call there given the information.

Level 18 : 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

Limit Hold'em

John Esposito and Josh Arieh were in a pot that saw multiple bets being collected by the dealer as preflop action was finishing. Arieh was in the hijack and checked a flop of {6-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} to Esposito, who was on the button and bet. Arieh put in a check-raise and Esposito made it three bets. Arieh called.

Arieh proceeded to check-call another bet from Esposito on the {7-Diamonds} turn before check-folding to a bet on the {2-Clubs} river.

"Yippee!" Esposito said as he raked in the pot. "Uncle Johnny! Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch!" he chanted.

On the following hand, Esposito opened the cutoff and Arieh defended. Arieh check-folded to a continuation-bet on the flop and Esposito continued with the chant: "Uncle Johnny! Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch!"
