Over on the main feature table, a completed board of saw the pot-sized bet of Jonathan Depa. Gavin Cochrane had some 350,000 behind and called all-in with the top set of aces. However, it was no good as Cochrane had the for a straight.
According to Depa, he had defended out of the big blind against a pot-sized raise from under the gun and they checked through the flop. Depa bet the turn for 130,000 to get called and potted the river for the Brit to call it off with the top set as the far shortest stack on the table.
Ben Lamb raised from under the gun and Emmanuel Sebag called. As they headed to the flop, Lamb bet 225,000 and was called by Sebag as they headed to the turn. Lamb now bet the pot for 625,000 and Sebag used one time bank before calling.
Last but not least, the fell on the river and Lamb bet 950,000 after using all but the last three seconds of his shot clock. That sent Sebag deep into the tank and he used five of his eight time bank extensions before folding with the words "nice hand bro".
Daniel Negreanu checked a heads-up turn of while in the small blind. Jonas Kronwitter bet 225,000 on the button and that won the pot. Negreanu then got some chips back with a successful flop bet, as did Aaron Mermelstein one hand later.
