Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

The board was showing 2♦7♦2♥10♥ and there were around 23,000 chips in the middle. The big blind checked and then faced an all in of 26,500 from Eric Afriat on the button.

The big blind thought for so long that eventually, Afriat called the clock on him. His time ran out and his hand was mucked. Afriat asked his opponent if he wanted to see one card, but the big blind chose not to see any.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Action was caught on the flop of 6♥8♥3♦, in a hand between Vamerdino Magsakay in middle position and the player on the button.

With 5,600 in the pot, Magsakay check-called a bet of 2,800. The turn brought the 5♦ and Magsakay check-called again, this time for 8,500.

On the J♥ river, Magsakay led out with a bet of 16,000 and the button reluctantly flicked in the call after some deliberating. Magsakay turned over J♦J♣ for a set of jacks, and pulled in the pot.

Haxton Folds an Overpair

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

With around 17,000 in the pot, the flop showed 4♦J♣7♣ and Isaac Haxton had checked out of the small blind. An early position player bet 6,000 and the cutoff called. After a few moments, Haxton check-raised to 20,000. His first opponent asked to look at Haxton's stack, which amounted to around 45,000, then moved all in for the covering stack. The cutoff quickly folded, but Haxton went deep into the tank, thinking for around a minute.

Eventually, Haxton folded and showed Q♦Q♥. He asked his opponent to "show a bluff," but instead, his opponent dragged in the pot and insisted it was no bluff.
