Blaise Bourgeois raised to 3,000 from the button and was called by Yunye Lu in the big blind. The dealer fanned a 9♣3♠4♣ flop. Lu check called a bet of 5,500 from Bourgeois.
Action checked through on the Q♠ turn.
The river was the K♣, Lu bet 5,500 and was called by Bourgeois. Lu tabled 9♦4♦, good for two pair and the win.
Action was picked up with Youngsik Eum in the tank after he opened for 3,000 and both Ashton Nikzad and Todd Van Kleeck shoved all-in - in the small blind for 28,000 and in the big blind for around 70,000, respectively.
Visibly amused with the situation, Eum made the call taking the trio to showdown.
Ashton Nikzad: A♥J♣ 
Youngsik Eum: J♥J♣
Todd Van Kleeck: A♣Q♠
Ahead with his pocket pair, Eum let out a small cheer when the hands were tabled. The flop dropped 3♦7♦8♦. Still happy he was ahead, he voiced out that there were enough diamonds on the board.
But the turn 2♦ fell and Eum was beginning to show slight frustration at the possible chop if another diamond fell. Sure enough the 9♦ was dealt on the river evoking a frustrated "Oh My God," exclamation from Eum.
The players pulled back their chips as the dealer divided the pot for a three-way chop which took away Eum's chance to boost his chip stack.
With already around 31,000 in the pot and the board showing A♠8♠5♠6♥3♠, Jacob Stone checked to Yuliyan Kolev, who laid out a bet of 25,000, which Stone called, leading to a showdown. Kolev turned Q♣9♣ for a bluff, and Stone showed Q♠J♠ for a flopped flush and scooped the pot right away.
Joonhee Yea opened the action from the hijack with a raise to 3,000, and Fabian Gumz made the call on the button. Qun Dang, however, had other plans and moved all in for 10,500. Yea called in a flash, while Gumz took a moment before deciding to come along as well.
The flop, turn, and river ran out A♠3♣8♣5♣4♣, and with four clubs on the board, the players checked it down to showdown.
Gumz revealed 10♦10♥ for a pair of tens, but Dang tabled K♣J♦ for a flush and claimed the pot for his triple-up.
Gabriel Moura, under the gun, opened with a 3,000 bet and got called by Michael Liang on the button and James Sowers in the big blind.
The flop came 10♠3♥4♠ and after a check Sowers, Moura continued with a 3,500 bet. Liang re-raised to 13,000 prompting Sowers to ask how many chips he had behind. After a few seconds of thought, he folded and Moura folded right after.
