Landon Tice raised from middle position to 8,000 and Joseph Kuczewski came along in the big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of 7♦5♦4♦ and both players quickly checked to the 10♠ turn. Kuczewski pushed forward a bet of 7,000 and that was enough to force Tice out of the pot.
Level: 14
Blinds: 2,000/4,000
Ante: 4,000
Michael Lavin in middle position raised to 6,000 met by the resistance of Shouyi Gao in the cutoff who three-bet to 16,000. The preflop action was yet to be over as Lavin returned with a four-bet to 41,000. Gao called.
The flop came K♠2♠5♥ to which Lavin continued for a very small bet of 8,000, less than 10% of the pot. Gao raised to 28,000, Lavin called and the players headed to the turn.
The 10♥ halted the action as this turn card checked through to a river of the A♥.
Lavin re-took the betting lead by firing out one big blind, a minuscule bet of approximately 2% of the pot. Geo snap-called.
Lavin tabled Q♥Q♦ which was the losing hand against Geo's A♦8♦ which had pulled ahead by the river.
Joseph Kuczewski raised to 8,000 on the button and was looked up by both Noah Sharp in the small blind and Rosalie Petit in the big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of 10♠6♥3♠, Sharp quickly checked and Petit jammed her last 30,000 across the line. Kuczewski snap-mucked and Sharp made the call.
Rosalie Petit: 8♠4♠
Noah Sharp: 7♣7♥
Petit had flopped a flush draw, and the J♠ turn brought in the flush, sealing her double up as the 6♠ completed the board.
Nicholas Hobbs raised under the gun to 7,000. Christopher Zenonos sat directly to his left and reraised to 20,000, and both players went to a flop.
The board came 9♣10♦8♥. Hobbs checked to Zenonos who continued for a large portion of Hobbs' stack. Hobbs put in the extra chips that remained, officially putting himself at risk, and Zenonos called.
Nicholas Hobbs: Q♦Q♥
Christopher Zenonos: K♣K♥
The board ran out with no help for Hobbs as Zenonos settled himself as one of the contenders for the Tournament of Champions chip lead.
On the turn of Q♦5♦4♥Q♥, Rania Nasreddine fired out a bet before Terry Harrell raised to 36,000.
Nasreddine decided to play for more chips as she put four green chips across the line, totaling a raise of 100,000. After a few moments Harrell tossed his cards into the muck, sending the pot to Nasreddine.
Ryan Dodd opened to 6,000 from early position and was called by George Coleman in middle positon. Ori Hasson then moved all-in from the small blind for 74,000 and was called by Coleman after Dodd folded.
Coleman had the covering stack, leaving Hasson at risk.
Ori Hasson 8♦8♣
George Coleman 10♥10♦
Things were looking good for Coleman's tens on the K♣5♦5♣ flop. The turn K♥ improved neither player, but the 8♥ river gave Hasson the best hand and the double.
Christopher Lawrence raised the button to 7,000. Stephen Bartlett in the big blind defended.
On a board of 8♣5♠4♥, it checked to Lawrence who continued for 9,000 , after which Bartlett check-raised to 26,000. After a call, both players went to the turn.
The 9♥ set Bartlett up to shove all in for his remaining 75,000. After minutes in the tank, Lawrence surrendered the pot propelling Bartlett to a stack of 143,000.
