Jason Viriyayuthakorn raised on the button and Joseph Bertrand called in the big blind. "I'll try not to scoop you," Viriyayuthakorn told him heading to the 7♠K♦Q♣ flop.

"I'll try not to scoop you, too," Bertrand replied. Bertrand then led out with a bet. "I guarantee that hit me more than it hit you," he added as Viriyayuthakorn called.

Both players checked the 3♥ turn and Bertrand also checked the 4♣ river. Viriyayuthakorn then bet and Bertrand called.

"Three fours," Viriyayuthakorn announced, turning over A♦10♥4♥4♦.

"I saved money on the turn, I guess, because you were definitely calling," Bertrand said as he mucked.

Blinds: 4,000-8,000

Joseph Bertrand raised from the button and Christopher Viox defended his big blind.

Viox check-called a bet on the 8♣7♥4♥ flop.

The K♣ turn checked through to the K♥ river which saw Viox lead with a bet and Bertrand begrudgingly put in the call.

Viox tabled just the A♠4♦ sheepishly as Bertrand revealed Q♣7♦6♠3♣ and his two pair and weak low were enough for the scoop.
