Joseph Santagata: XxXx/7x2x6x7x/Xx
Jeff Lisandro: XxXx/6x4x6x9x/Xx
Joseph Santagata placed a bet on fifth street, Jeff Lisandro called with his paired board, and check-called on sixth street when Santagata also caught a pair. He checked in the dark on seventh street, facing a bet once again.
Lisandro made a quick fold as he left himself with just over two big bets.
Joseph Villella raised from the hijack, and Tony Ma called in the big blind. Ma check-called Villella's bet on the J♥4♥Q♠ flop before leading out on the K♦ turn.
Villella called to the 8♣ river, which both players checked. Ma announced a set and tabled Q♦Q♣10♣6♣ for three queens. Villella showed K♥Q♥ and tossed his other two cards in the muck, admitting his defeat.
Joshua Damm had committed most of his small stack before the flop from the cutoff against Thomas Taylor in the hijack, and the rest flew in when 5♣A♠4♣ was put on the table.
Joshua Damm: K♣10♦
Thomas Taylor: A♣8♣
Taylor had a dominating lead with his pair and flush draw, and Damm was left without outs after the 5♠ turn. The A♦ river made Taylor a full hosue to finish the hand in style as Damm headed to the exit.
Alex Livingston raised from early position, and David Singer called in the seat next over. Livingston check-called Singer's bet on the 10♠8♦Q♦ flop before the check-raised his opponent on the 6♥ turn.
Singer called to the 5♦ river, where he called Livingston's final bet as well. Livingston tabled A♠9♦7♥5♥ for a straight to the ten and a eight-seven low, and he took down the entire pot when Singer mucked his cards.
