Level 7 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Five-time WSOP bracelet winner Jeremy Ausmus and Sergio Aido were involved in a postflop hand, which had the pot at approximately 61,000.

On a board of 4♥10♦J♣, Ausmus checked his option in the big blind and Aido, who was in late position, made a bet and Ausmus called.

The turn revealed 3♣, which Ausmus once again checked. Aido bet 90,000, which drew a call from Ausmus.

The river produced 2♦ and Ausmus checked. Aido didn’t slow down and bet 225,000. Ausmus took a few seconds but made the call.

Aido tabled K♥Q♣ for a king-high hand and busted straight draw, while Ausmus showed Q♦J♦ for a pair of jacks and the win.

Chamath Palihapitiya: Q♥Q♦
David Peters: 10♦10♠

The board ran out 7♠2♣8♣8♦4♥ to give Palihapitiya a much-needed double up.

The river saw 5♦ on the board, which both players checked. Kornuth tabled 10♠8♣ for a flopped bottom two pair, which won the pot after Martirosian mucked his hand.

Sam Soverel raised to 17,000 in early position and Zachary Schwartz called on the button. Jason Koon pushed out a raise to 85,000 in the big blind, leaving just 1,000 behind. Soverel got out of the way but Schwartz elected to call.

The flop came J♥9♠8♣ and the two players stuck in the rest of the chips and tabled their hands. Schwartz was out front with K♣J♠ but Koon had outs with A♦10♥. The Q♥ on the turn gave Koon a straight and held on through the 5♠ on the river in order to double up.

Ren Lin and Darren Elias were heads-up in a pot with around 60,000 in the middle. The board read A♣Q♣4♥3♥ and Elias bet 25,000 on the button. Lin check-raised all in from the hijack and Elias quickly stuck in the last of his 150,000 chips.

Darren Elias: A♠Q♦
Ren Lin: 4♠4♦

Elias flopped two pair but ran into a set of fours from Lin. The 3♦ paired the board on the river but it was not the right pair for Elias who was sent to the rail.
