Limit Hold'em
Alex Livingston raised in the hijack and Maximilian Schindler reraised in the small blind. Livingston called and they saw a flop of 9♠5♠4♦.
Schindler continued with a bet and Livingston called. Both players checked down the 7♦ turn and 8♥ river, and Livingston showed A♠K♣ to win the pot.
Schindler then raised on the button and Jason Mercier called in the big blind.
Schindler bet on the K♥Q♣8♦ flop and Mercier called. The turn was the A♠ and Schindler bet again. Mercier called and they checked the 3♥ river. Mercier showed Q♠J♣ for a pair of queens and Schindler mucked.
Marco Johnson won a small pot on the flop off Kristopher Tong the next hand, but it was notable that Tong finally lost one of his blue 100,000 chips.
"I'll buy it for 95,000, Marco," Scott Seiver offered.
"Let the word go out that I have a blue," Johnson said.
