Garik Tamasian raised from middle position to 6,000, and David Hipperson three-bet all in. Tamasian snap-called.
David Hipperson: 9♥9♣
Garik Tamasian: A♠10♠
The flop came Q♥3♥A♥ to put Tamasian into the lead, and Hipperson needed to spike a nine or heart to stay alive. The turn did not help with the 3♠ coming and nor did the 6♦, and Hipperson was sent packing.

Brent Francis: A♠J♣
"I'm dead, nice hand," said Francis before the 10♦ landed on the river.

Michael Mcfadden raised to 4,000 in the hijack, Ricardo Nakamura flatted on the button, and Carlos Saucedo three-bet to 41,000 in the small blind, leaving himself with just 1,000 behind. Mcfadden called and Nakamura got out of the way.
The flop came 2♦4♦10♦ and Mcfadden put Saucedo all in and he made the call to put himself at risk.
Carlos Saucedo: A♥Q♣
Michael Mcfadden: A♦A♣
The 10♠ turn left Saucedo drawing dead and the meaningless Q♠ rolled off on the river.

Pot-Limit Omaha
On a flop of A♥9♦2♦ with the pot already bloated and nearly at 50,000 Tyler Spaugh had moved all in for his last 39,500. Fabien Larcher went into the tank for two to three minutes before he made the call.
Tyler Spaugh: K♦5♦4♣3♣
Fabien Larcher: A♠J♥8♣8♦
The 5♠ dropped on the turn and made Spaugh the wheel and left Larcher drawing dead. The pot was shipped to Spaugh with the irrelevant 7♥ coming on the river and Larcher was left on fumes.
