Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Marco Johnson opened on the button and was called by Phil Ivey in the big blind.
Ivey checked and then called after Johnson continued on a flop of Q♦A♣Q♣.
The K♣ turn saw Ivey take over the betting lead only for Johnson to respond with a raise. That raise was met by a swift fold from Ivey who did not seem too pleased with how the hand had progressed.

No-Limit Hold'em
James Obst raised to 40,000 out of the small blind and was called by Johannes Becker in the big blind. Both checked the 10♠9♦8♠ flop and Obst checked the 4♣ turn. Becker now bet 45,000 only for Obst to check-raise to 160,000, which Becker called after a few seconds of consideration.
The A♦ fell on the river and Obst almost immediately announced the all-in, sending Becker into agony. He counted the 575,000 behind and dropped a single chip in for the call after around one minute.
Becker already exposed his J♦10♦ for a pair of tens and Obst flung his cards towards the muck.
"Sorry, I have to see them," Becker said and other players also pointed out that the cards had to be shown according to the showdown roles. The K♠5♥ of Obst were briefly exposed before he paid off the double to Becker.

Pot-Limit Omaha
After John Racener opened to 40,000 in the hijack, Josh Arieh was in the small blind where he asked Racener, "like 600?" referring to Racener's remaining chip stack.
"530," replied Racener, before Arieh made the call, as did Dzmitry Urbanovich in the big blind.
The flop came 6♣A♣2♠, and after checks from Arieh and Urbanovich, Racener bet 50,000. Arieh then check-raised to 250,000 which got a fold from Urbanovich, but Racener then moved all in for what was actually 515,000 and Arieh called to put Racener at risk.
John Racener: A♠A♥Q♥10♠
Josh Arieh: K♣Q♣6♥5♦
Racener's top set was up against Arieh's flush draw. Arieh picked up more outs on the 3♠ turn, giving him a straight draw, but it also gave Racener an added flush draw too.
The river 2♥ filled up Racener to give him the double up and take a chunk out of Arieh's sizeable stack.

Omaha Hi-Lo
Phil Hellmuth defended the big blind against a button raise by Phil Ivey and then stuck around all the way on the 9♦7♦4♠8♥9♣ runout, check-calling all the way. Hellmuth's A♠Q♣7♠3♠ were the second nut low with nines and sevens. He only earned one quarter of the pot, as Ivey had the A♥K♣9♥3♥ for trips nines and the same low.
That loss left Hellmuth rambling with a small rail gathered right behind him in the Horseshoe Event Center.

Seven Card Stud
Talal Shakerchi: XxXx / 8♦K♥A♠6♣ / Xx
Brian Rast: XxXx / Q♦6♥4♣8♣ / Xx
Talal Shakerchi bet all the way from fourth to sixth street to get called down by Brian Rast. When both were supposed to receive their final down card, the 7♣ was accidentally revealed for Shakerchi and the floor was called.
The card was placed back on top of the deck, which was then reshuffled and both players received new down cards.
Shakerchi's subsequent bet was called and he tabled the A♦K♣J♠ for aces and kings to win the pot.

Pot Limit Omaha
Maxx Coleman limped in from the small blind and John Racener checked his option.
Coleman check-called a bet from Racener on 3♠K♦6♦ and the 2♥ turn and 6♣ river checked through, with Coleman showing down Q♠10♠10♦7♦ for two pair, tens and sixes.
In the next hand, Coleman was involved with Hal Rotholz, with Rotholz check-folding a flop of J♥Q♦5♠ after defending his big blind from a Coleman button open to 35,000.

Hal Rotholz raised on the button and got a call from Josh Arieh in the big blind.
On the A♠J♦4♣ flop, the players checked to the 6♦ turn. Arieh checked and then Rotholz peeked at one of his cards and bet.
Arieh then check-raised, and with action back on Rotholz, he now peeked at his other card and then raised again.
Arieh called, and on the 3♠ river, he checked and then faced another bet from Rotholz. Arieh opted to fold his hand at this point to send the pot across the table.
