Level 5
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Action was picked up in a three-bet pot between Maria Konnikova on the button and Nikolai Mamut in the big blind.
The flop read 3♣K♣4♠ and Mamut bet 16,000 which Konnikova called.
On the A♦ turn, Mamut sized up to 45,000 and Konnikova quickly called, with both players checking the 4♣ river.
"Nitty check," Konnikova said as she tabled A♥K♦ for aces up which was good against Mamut's J♥10♥.

A flop of K♣7♠2♣ had been spread across the table and Chongxian Yang had bet 15,000 into Punnat Punsri, who called.
The 6♥ hit the turn and Yang fired another bet of 45,000, and after using a time extension chip, Punsri made the call.
Yang slowed down with a check on the 8♠ river and Punsri shoved all in, which put Yang to the test for his last 65,000 chips. It was Yang's turn to use some extra time and after mulling it over for a minute, he made the fold.

Niall Farrell raised to 6,000 from the hijack and in the cutoff, Scott Ball three-bet to 21,000 which Farrell called.
Both players checked the 5♥J♥6♥ flop to the 7♥ turn where Farrell check-called a bet of 12,000 from Ball.
The river peeled off the A♣ which saw Farrell check over to Ball who bet 43,000.
"Did you just flop it?" asked Farrell as he contemplated his decision. After some more thought he put in the chips and mucked after seeing Ball's A♥3♥ for a flopped flush.
