Ken Keating limped in from early position, Carol Fuchs limped behind from middle position and Robert Tanita raised to 3,800 from the cutoff. Both Keating and Fuchs made the call.
The flop came Q♥5♣2♠ and Keating moved all in for 8,900. Fuchs called with a covering stack to put him at risk while Tanita got out of the way.
Ken Keating: 6♠4♦3♥2♦ 
Carol Fuchs: A♦8♥6♦4♥
The rest of the board ran out J♠5♠. No low was possible and Keating had connected with his deuce to take the pot while Fuchs was left short-stacked and busted shortly afterwards.

Mike Holtz opened to 2,000 from middle position and received calls from a player in the cutoff and Benjamin Gilbert in the small blind.
All three players checked the K♠8♦4♣ flop leading to the 2♦ turn. Gilbert moved all in for about 7,000, Holtz got out of the way and the cutoff called with a covering stack to put Gilbert at risk.
Benjamin Gilbert: A♦9♠6♦3♦
Opponent: A♣Q♥6♥5♦
Gilbert already had the nut-low and the 7♦ river gave him the nut flush for the other half to score a full double up.

James Woods raised to 1,600 from under the gun and was called by Leif Force on his direct left. Action folded to Ryan Roeder, and he defended his big blind.
Woods continued for pot (4,800) on the K♥Q♥8♣ flop and was called in both spots.
Action then checked to Force on the 5♣ turn. He jammed for 18,500 and was called by Roeder, who wasted little time in calling. Woods found himself in a tough spot, saying he would need some time over his decision while lamenting that the board contained two flush draws. He ended up folding and the cards went on their backs.
Leif Force: K♣Q♠Q♣7♣
Ryan Roeder: A♥8♥5♠4♠
The J♣ river denied Roeder any chance of taking the low half of the pot. Force improved to a flush and scooped.

In a four-way limped pot to the J♠8♦3♣ flop, the small blind checked, as did Ken Aldridge from the big blind. The under-the-gun player and the hijack were also in the hand and checked.
Action checked to the hijack on the 4♠ turn, and he bet 1,500. Only the blinds called.
The 10♥ river then checked through to showdown.
The hijack tabled his hand first, showing A♥9♦6♠3♦ for an eight-six low. Aldridge tabled K♦J♦8♠2♠ for jacks and eights. The small blind couldn't beat either hand and mucked, for the the hijack and Aldridge to chop the pot.
