Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Qing Liu opened for 700 from early position and was called by the hijack, Joao Simao in the cutoff, Joseph Gargiulo on the button, and the big blind.

The flop came {5-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{j-Spades} and after Liu checked, the hijack put out a bet of 3,500. Only Gargiulo called.

The turn brought the {7-Spades} and the hijack fired again, this time for 4,500. Gargiulo quickly called.

The river brought the {q-Hearts} and the hijack went for a third barrel to the tune of 6,500. Gargiulo called. The hijack turned over {q-Spades}{10-Hearts} and Gargiulo turned over {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for top two pair and the win.

Strelitz Raises Flop

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Daniel Strelitz raised to 700 in early position and was called by a player in the cutoff. On the button another player three-bet to 3,100 and both Strelitz and the cutoff called.

The flop came out {a-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades} and action checked to the button who continued for 7,500. Strelitz check-raised to 19,000 which folded out both players and the recently crowned Razz champion took down an early pot.

After Anton Wigg bet 1,200 on a flop of {k-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades} from under-the-gun, Loni Hui called from the big blind.

When the {7-Diamonds} fell on the turn, Wigg bet again to 3,500 after Hui checked. She didn't take long to make the call to set up a river.

The {5-Spades} river completed the board and Hui led for 12,000, to which Wigg announced ''All in''. Hui counted her stack out and after about 30 seconds she threw in the call.

Wigg tabled {9-Spades}{8-Spades} for the nuts, while Hui had {6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for the bottom end of a straight. Wigg had the bigger stack and sent Hui to the rail.

Davis Back to Starting Stack After Doubling Up

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

There was already around 21,000 in the pot on the {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} board when Chase Davis tossed his final 15,500 in front of him. His opponent quickly called and Davis flipped over {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

His opponent spiked his cards down in anger, being on the wrong end of it and only leaving himself with about 6,000 in his stack.

Davis, meanwhile, got himself back to a touch above starting stack.
