Alexandra Botez bet 12,000 from under the gun on a flop of A♣7♣Q♦ and a player in the big blind called.
The turn came the 4♦ and the big blind immediately moved all in for around 30,000. Botez snap-called with Q♥Q♠ for the flopped set, while her opponent was already throwing his Ax10x into the muck.
The river came the 5♣ and Botez scored the knockout as another player at the table came over to tell her he folded two jacks.
The pot stood at approximately 22,000 with two players looking at a flop of 4♦6♦8♠.
Gijsbert van Doesburg in the big blind checked the action to Chris Hunichen on the button. Hunichen bet out for 12,000 and Vandoesburg raised to 35,000. Hunichen elected to see a turn.
The J♥ peeled and Van Doesburg chose to jam for 129,500. Hunichen took several minutes before making the call.
Gijsbert van Doesburg: 8♥4♥
Chris Hunichen: 10♣10♠
The river fell the Q♠. Hunichen's big hero call with the pocket tens fell short of the flopped two pair of van Doesburg.
Johnny Chan opened to 8,000 from the hijack and a player on the button three-bet to 26,000. Chan put in a four-bet to 55,000 and the button made the call leading players heads up going to the flop.
The flop came A♥3♣4♦. Chan made a small bet of 20,000 which was a bit under twenty percent of what was in the current pot. The button quickly made the fold and a sizable pot was slid in Chan's direction.
Picking up the action on the river, Brad Ruben in the small blind was involved in a hand with a player in middle position. With the board reading 5♦2♠3♠5♠2♥ and a substantial pot already in the middle, Ruben bet 30,500. His opponent took his time making a decision but ultimately called. Ruben tabled 5♥3♣ for the full house, good enough to take down the pot and keep the four time bracelet winner chipping up.
Brian Hastings opened and Kyle Cartwright three-bet to 20,000. It came back to Hastings who four-bet to 48,000 and after a minute, Cartwright let it go.
George Wolff opened 6,000 in middle positon before Nikita Luther three-bet 12,500. The action folded back to Wolff and he took some time before making the call.
The flop came 5♦3♦3♣, and Wolff check-called a bet of 10,500 from Luther.
The 5♥ hit the turn and both players tapped the table.
The dealer dropped the 7♥ on the river, and Wolff splashed a bet of 68,000 across the line and Luther snap-mucked.
Maurice Hawkins and another opponent went heads-up in a blind versus blind battle to the river on a board of 4♦3♦J♠6♠10♠ and around 50,000 already in the middle.
Hawkins shoved forward a tower mixed up with yellow 1,000 chips and reds worth 5,000. The small blind quickly called and Hawkins showed J♦10♦ to win the pot.
"I'm not like the other guys. She said it was 38, I was like, okay," Hawkins said about his bet.
"If I had a million, I would be like 'f**k it, too," another tablemate joked with Hawkins.
Ana Cintra raised to 6,000 from middle position. Eli Elezra, the small blind, made the call. Patrik Zidek, the big blind, reraised to 26,000. Cintra folded, and action moved to Elezra.
Elezra turned over his 7♣6♣ as he folded. "I don't have enough chips to call you!" he joked.
