John Fontana: {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}

Van Loo flopped trips on {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{a-Hearts}, but Fontana made a full house. The {10-Hearts} on the turn kept Fontana in the lead, but the {a-Spades} on the river gave Van Loo quad aces and the knockout.

"Quads against my boat," Fontana said as he shook the hands of his tablemates.

No-Limit Hold'em

Ryan Phan bet 38,000 on a flop of {10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Clubs} before Ritchie Cabrera shoved for his last 140,000.

"If I lose I go to bed," Phan said before sticking in the chips to call.

Phan showed {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}, but had been outflopped by the {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} of Cabrera. The board ran out {3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and Cabrera's set won the pot. The stacks were counted down and Phan had Cabrera barely covered by 10,000.

No-Limit Hold'em

Maria Ho moved all in pre-flop from middle position and the player on the button called.

Button: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {2-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and Ho's kings won the pot. The dealer mistakenly counted the stacks and awarded Ho all of her opponent's chips, but a recount showed Ho had 138,000 and her opponent was left with around 10,000.
