Kristen Foxen
Kristen Foxen

In a three-way pot on a flop of 99J, a player bet 6,000 and Matthew Fields called before Kristen Foxen raised to 18,000. The initial bettor folded and Fields raised all in for around 40,000 to bring a quick call from Foxen.

Matthew Fields: K10 All in
Kristen Foxen: A9

Foxen had trips to be in front of Fields' gutshot, and the A turn gave her a full house to have her opponent drawing dead headed to the 10 river.

Erik Seidel
Erik Seidel

Erik Seidel had just busted deep into Event #16: $5,000 8-Handed No-Limit Hold'em with a rivered one-outer before the Poker Hall of Famer tried his luck in the $25,000 event.

Early into Level 7, Seidel was all in against the bigger-stacked Stephen Chidwick across the table.

Erik Seidel: QQ All in
Stephen Chidwick: A8

Seidel's queens were well ahead, but the board proceeded to run out 6JKA10 to give Chidwick the superior flush and mark the ten-time bracelet winner's elimination.

Justin Saliba opened to 10,000 from the hijack and Punnat Punsri three-bet to 27,000 from the cutoff. Saliba made the call.

Saliba checked the Q86 flop. Punsri put out a continuation bet of 22,000 and was met by a check-raise all-in by Saliba. Punsri made the call for his remaining 110,000 chips.

Punnat Punsri: J9 All in
Justin Saliba: 86

Punsri had a lot of outs to stay alive, but the 4 turn and J river were not any of those outs and he was sent to the rail.

Big Freeroll for Big Huni

Level 7 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Chris Hunichen
Chris Hunichen

Ren Lin opened to 10,000 in early position and the cutoff three-bet to 30,000 before Chris Hunichen four-bet to 85,000 in the small blind. Lin folded and the cutoff five-bet jammed a stack of around 300,000. Hunichen called with a bigger stack.

Cutoff: AK All in
Chris Hunichen: AK

"I don't like that you have two flush draws," Hunichen joked prematurely as the flop landed 2Q9 to give him the flush draw.

Hunichen groaned at the teasing red K turn, but the 7 river gave him the flush as his opponent hit the rail shortly after moving to the table.
