Men "The Master" Nguyen was all in with the board showing 6♠J♦Q♦ and two other players left in the hand. Both checked a 6♣ on the turn.
The river was a 5♣. The small blind bet 10,000 and got a fold from the hijack.
Men Nguyen: Q♥8♥
Small Blind: A♠K♥
Nguyen's two pair was good enough to take the hand, and tripled him up.
The early position player bet 6,000 and was met with a raise by Brett Murray on the button to 16,000. The early position player responded by moving all in and was under-called by Murray for 64,000.
Brett Murray: A♣K♥
Early Position: J♠J♦
Murray was flipping for his tournament life and it looked like his night was to be cut short until the king on the river on the board of Q♦4♥2♦8♦K♠ secured him the double-up.
In a blind versus blind pot, the flop read J♣7♠8♣ when Martin Jacobson bet 3,000 and Esther Kim opted to call.
The turn revealed the 8♠ and this time Jacobson checked. Kim tanked a minute and bet 5,000, which was enough to make Jacobson muck his cards.
All the chips went in the middle preflop between David Lappin, at risk for his last 31,000 and his opponent who had him covered:
David Lappin: A♥K♦
Opponent: Q♣Q♠
Lappin had to win the flip to survive, which he did thanks to a board A♠K♣9♦9♥3♣, giving him top two pair.
The board J♠Q♥5♥9♣5♦ was already tabled with the cards face up.
Dion Firooznia was the player at risk for a stack worth 28,000 and held K♣Q♦ for a pair of queens and the winning hand as Adrian State held A♥10♠ and conceded the double up to Firooznia.
Mike Leah raised to 5,000 and Guang Chen three-bet next to him to 11,500. It folded back to Leah who didn't take long to call.
The flop appeared K♦2♣8♣a nd Leah check-folded after Chen continued for 12,000. Chen tabled a A♣ before grabbing the pot.
Level: 12
Blinds: 1,000/2,500
Ante: 2,500
In a heads-up raised pot, the flop showed K♠3♦10♥ when Rogério Castro checked in the big blind to Samuel Gagnon who bet 6,000. Castro made the call.
A 5♥ appeared on the turn and Castro checked again. Gagnon decided to bet 14,000 and after some thinking, Castro tossed a pile of 5,000-chips in front of him for a raise. Gagnon immediately folded.
On a flop of 2♥10♣7♥, the player in the cutoff bet 8,500. Benny Glaser called from the big blind.
The turn fell an 8♦ and both players checked.
A 5♠ on the river got the same treatment. Glaser turned over J♠7♦ and his opponent mucked.
