: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
The player in middle position raised to 600, the players in the hijack and cutoff both called, and the player on the button three-bet to 4,600. David Chase then cold four-bet to 10,000 in the small blind, and only the button called.
The flop rolled out 5♥3♦J♣ and Chase moved all in for about 10,500, putting himself at risk.
The button folded and the pot was pushed Chase's way.

Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
The player under the gun rasied to 600. Rania Nasreddine called from the cutoff, as did the button and the small blind. Harrison Gimbel, in the big blind squeezed to 5,800. The original raiser folded and Nasreddine called.
The button thought before putting in a four-bet to 17,000. Gimbel five-bet jammed for 51,400, Nasreddine made a frustrated fold and the button made the call.
Harrison Gimbel: A♦K♦ 
Button: A♣K♠
Gimbel was at risk but the hand was likely to be a chop, until the 10♥9♦4♦ flop gave him a flush draw. The 9♠ turn and 3♦ river saw him complete his flush to scoop this massive pot.

Middle position went into the tank before eventually giving up his hand.
