Samuel Bekerian raised to 4,000 from under the gun, a player in early position three-bet to 12,000 and Bekerian called.
Both players checked to the river as the full board now read J♥6♥6♦5♥6♣. Bekerian checked again and his opponent checked back. Bekerian rolled over A♦4♦ for ace high, which was seemingly enough to see his opponent's cards into the muck.

The under the gun player raised, Denis Ethier called in the hijack and Alan Weiland three-bet jammed for 28,000, from the button. The original raiser called, Ethier back jammed for his stack of approximately 85,000 and the player under the gun called off the bet for their tournament life.

Under-the-Gun: K♥Q♥
Denis Ethier: 7♣7♥
This three-way all in fell in the favour of Weiland on the J♣J♦2♣ flop. Weiland had the main pot locked up on the A♣ turn, ensuring his triple up. The K♣ river gave Ethier a flush to eliminate the player under the gun, winning him the side pot.

The player under the gun limped in, as did a player in early position. Johnny Kelly, in middle position, moved all in for 14,500. The original limper called and the player in early positon got out of the way.
Johnny Kelly: 8♣8♥
Under-the-Gun: Q♦J♥
Kelly was ahead and the 4♥5♣6♦ flop was a safe one. The A♣ turn and 10♣ river proved no danger and Kelly found more than the full double up.
