Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Rajesh Vohra started the action with an all-in of 3,500 in under the gun. Dinesh Alt was the button and raised it to 7,500, finding a caller in Gerald Stogner in the big blind.

On the 10♦5♦8♦ flop, Stogner checked and Alt led out with another bet of 3,500. Stogner instantly grabbed two green chips and raised to 50,000. Alt smiled and mucked his cards, leading to a showdown.

Rajesh Vohra: 5♠3♠ All in
Gerald Stogner: 10♠8♠

Vohra needed some help from the turn and river, but the turn brought the 6♥ and the river the 6♦. Stogner's two pair were still stronger, and none of the opponents had diamonds to complete the flush. Stogner claimed the pot and sent Vohra to the rail.

Dylan Linde: 9♠9♣

Camillo Baggiani raised from under the gun to 4,000, and Drew O'Connell three-bet to 12,000 in the hijack. All of the other players folded, and Baggiani made the call. The flop came out with A♣9♦J♥, Baggiani checked, O'Connell bet 7,000, and Baggiani made the call.

On the turn Q♣ Baggiani checked and O'Connell bet out 12,000. Baggiani just flat called.

The river 8♥ saw a bet from Baggiani for 15,500, a raise from O'Connell for 75,000, which would effectively put Baggiani all in. Without hesitation, Baggiani made the call, and the entire table was shocked to see set over set.

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Dinesh Alt opened for 5,000 in hijack and got called by Nevan Chang on the big blind taking both players to the flop.

The flop came Q♥10♣10♠. After action was passed to him, Alt fired another 3,500 but Chang went beyond and made it to 9,500. Alt took a few seconds before calling.

The same dynamic happened on the Q♦ turn. Chang, poker faced, took his time before deciding to check. Alt keeping the action going, bet 7,000 and once again, Chang raised him to 14,000. Alt, shuffling his chips and deep in thought, called.

On the river Q♣, Chang shoved all-in and patiently waited for Alt to respond. With a full house on the board, Alt went into the tank, seriously considering his next move. Finally he called.

A huge smile spread across Chang's face as he tabled K♠Q♠ for quads, prompting Alt to throw his hand to the muck pile. Chang took out his phone to record the hand as the chips were shipped towards his direction.

Player	Chips	Progress
Nevan Chang	111,000 111,000	111,000

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Jack Kizilarslan opened the action from the cutoff with a raise to 6,000, and Jason Pritchard responded with a three-bet to 18,000 from the small blind. After some thought, Kizilarslan made the call.

On the 5♦A♣A♦ flop, Pritchard check-called a 12,000 bet from Kizilarslan.

Things slowed down from there. Both players checked the 2♦ turn, and Pritchard checked again on the 4♠ river. Kizilarslan looked like he considered firing one more bet but ultimately checked it back.

At showdown, Kizilarslan tabled 8♥8♠, but Pritchard had the better pair with 10♦10♥ to take the pot.

Jack Kizilarslan	130,000 25,000	25,000
