Action was caught on the flop of Q♥9♦7♠, where the pot was already 1,200. Rongshan Li bet 2,000 from under the gun and Steve Kendrick on the button called.
The turn was the 4♦. Li bet 4,500 and Kendrick raised to 9,000. Li called.
The river was the 6♠. Li checked and Kendrick bet 10,200. When it came back to Li, he went all in. Kendrick thought for a moment and let go of the hand, sending an early pot Li’s way.

The flop showed 6♥8♥6♦ and Craig McCorkell from the cutoff checked to Deividas Daubaris on the button. Daubaris bet 300 and McCorkell called.
The A♥ on the turn got checked through for the 3♦ to come on the river.
This time McCorkell bet 1,000. Daubaris responded by raising to 3,500. McCorkell thought for a while before reraising to 10,000. Daubaris snap-called and McCorkell turned over A♣A♦ for a full house. Daubaris showed 8♦8♣ for a worse a full house as his chips were sent over to McCorkell

The turn on the board A♣6♠7♦A♦ was seen by three players. The player on the button bet 500 and Shawn Beaupre raised to 1,500 from the big blind. Matias Gabrenja was in the hijack and called. The button folded.
On the river, which was the K♠, Beaupre again made it 1,500, and Gabrenja called. Beaupre turned over A♠5♣ for trips, but Gabrenja had A♥9♣ and was just a tad better with the nine kicker.
