In the first hand, PokerNews picked up the action with A.C.R. Pro, Jon Van Fleet of Team Van Fleet, who goes by Apestyles online, betting all of his chips on the river, sans a single 500 chip, from early position and being called by a Xavier Brezniak of Team Brezniak on a board reading J♣8♥J♥10♣6♥.
Van Fleet showed down K♣Q♦ for a missed straight and Brezniak tabled A♣10♥ for two pair, jacks and tens.
In the next hand, Van Fleet would toss that remaining 500 chip in from early position and was called by Liam Murphy of Team Murphy in middle position.
Jon Van Fleet: A♣8♣
Liam Murphy: 10♦7♦
Van Fleet would turn a pair of aces on a final runout of 5♥3♣9♦A♦9♠ for a small double-up.
In the final hand, Van Fleet moved all-in from early position once more and was called by Murphy again in middle position.
Jon Van Fleet: A♥Q♠
Liam Murphy: Q♣Q♥
"Oh, you have a real hand," commented Van Fleet upon seeing Murphy's queens.
Both players would hit the flop in the form of a queen, but of course, Van Fleet's top pair was still behind the top set of Murphy on the Q♦4♥10♣ flop. The K♠ turn gave Van Fleet straight outs, but the 3♠ on the river would send Team Van Fleet to the rail.
