Bradley Rogoff raised the button to 325,000 and Chulhan Choi three-bet from the small blind to 600,000. Kyle Yu was in the big blind and put in the rest of his 665,000 and both Rogoff and Choi called.

Both Choi and Rogoff checked to the river on the {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} board where Choi check-folded to a bet of 300,000 from Rogoff.

Yu tabled {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for two pair but was shown the bad news when Rogoff showed {j-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a flush on the river.

Zhang Uses His One Time

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Eric Zhang
Eric Zhang

Chen Balteriski raised in early position and the action folded around to Eric Zhang in the big blind who jammed for 1,035,000. Balteriski thought about it for a while before putting in the chips to call.

"Don't worry its only dueces," Said Balteriski.

Eric Zhang: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Chen Balteriski: {2-Clubs}{2-Spades}

Before the dealer put out the flop Zhang yelled, "One time!" And the flop came {a-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts}, pairing his ace to take the lead. The turn was a sweat when the {j-Spades} landed as Balteriski picked up a flush draw and the {j-Clubs} on the river sealed the double for Zhang.

Mitch Garshofsky shoved the button for 1,150,000 and Kyle Yu was in the big blind and he made the call.

Mitch Garshofsky: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Kyle Yu: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

It was a race and the dealer fanned a flop of {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs} giving Garshofsky top set. The {8-Hearts} on the turn meant Yu was drawing dead as the {6-Spades} hit the river.
