There was no more action on this street as both players checked. However, on the river 4♠, Okamoto bet 2,300. Her neighbor waited a few seconds and folded.

Action checked to Hawkins who bet 2,800 on a board reading 10♥7♠9♦Q♥ and only Raleigh called.

"Bargain shopper," Hawkins said after the hand "Bargain shopper getting a little bit of value!"

The river came the Q♣ and the middle-position player checked over to Benohod, who fired out another 4,000. His opponent called and Benohod turned over K♥9♦ for two pair to win the pot and climb near 100,000 on the first level of Day 1D.
Jason Alvarez checked from the big blind to Susan Choi on a board of 10♦7♦7♣2♥, and Choi fired for 1,200.
When Alvarez checked again on a K♦ river, Choi, wearing a Minnie Mouse hat to represent her home near Disneyland in Orange County, California, calmly threw two red 5,000 chips in the middle.
"Wow, that's a lot," said Alvarez, folding. "Nice hand."
Tsugunari Toma opened to 500 from the hijack and was three-bet to 1,400 by Andrew Butler on the button. Action folded back to Toma and he four-bet to 5,100. Butler called.
Both players checked on the 8♠7♣2♥ flop and then Toma fired 12,200 into the middle on the J♥ turn. Butler called.
The 8♦ completed the board and Toma bet 14,400. Butler thought for a while and decided to look Toma up with a call. Toma tabled A♥Q♥ for a whiffed flushed draw and Butler turned over 7♥6♥ for eights and sevens, which was enough to drag the large pot early in Day 1d.
