No-Limit Hold'em

Heads-up on a completed board of 10♠4♦2♣8♦4♣ with about 5,000 already in the middle, Tomasz Gluszko had a bet in front of him from the big blind and was faced with a shove from Dan Smith, who was in the hijack.

Gluszko went deep into the tank as he contemplated calling all in for his last 13,000 and eventually the clock was called.

Gluszko let his hand go and Smith tabled A♦J♦ for a bluff.

"How do you feel right now?" tablemate Nitesh Rawtani asked.

"I learned something," Gluszko responded.

Mascio led out for a bet again on the 5♣ river and only Yockey called.

Mascio turned over 7♣6♠3♣A♥ for the low and Yockey tabled Q♦10♥9♣8♣ for a higher flush for the high and they chopped the pot.

Pot-Limit Omaha

Anderson Ireland from the hijack and Patrick Stacey from the small blind were heads-up to the J♠J♣4♦8♠ board with around 18,000 in the middle.

Stacey checked, Ireland bet 15,000, and Stacey jammed for 20,600.

"I think I might be dead," lamented Ireland before he put in the call.

Patrick Stacey: A♥A♦Q♣6♥ All in
Anderson Ireland: A♠10♦9♠3♣

Fortunately for Ireland, he was not dead with an open-ender and the nut flush draw against the naked aces of Stacey. Ireland had many outs to eliminate Stacey but the A♣ river was not one of them as Stacey made top boat for the full double, but Ireland retains a healthy stack.
