Cards were on their back in an all-in hand between Scotty Nguyen and Yong Wang, with Nguyen the player at risk.
Scotty Nguyen: A♦A♣10♦2♥
Yong Wang: K♣J♠8♠Xx
Wang was ahead with a king-high straight on a board reading 9♣10♥9♥Q♥, with Nguyen drawing very thin.
With one card to come, Nguyen would need to spike an ace or a nine to stay alive and to his surprise, and Wang's disappointment, the A♥ hit the river, giving him the full house and the double-up and leaving Wang with less than starting stack left.

The flop came out 6♣3♣7♦ and Montgomery was ahead with ace-king high and a 7x6x3x2xAx low.
The 8♥ gave Montgomery a pair of eights to move further out in front, but then a 2♥ river counterfeited Montgomery's low and gave Diebold a life-saving chop. "Found a deuce!" he said.
