Andrew Yeh: Q♠J♥J♦10♣

Yeh had a pair of jacks and a wrap while Taylor had two pair. Taylor improved to a flush on the K♣ turn, leaving Yeh drawing dead, and after the 2♥ river, she doubled up.

Pot-Limit Omaha

Erick Lindgren opened to 80,000 on the button, with Joao Vieira making the call in the big blind.

Both players checked the A♥7♠5♦ flop, with the dealer flipping over the 6♠ turn. Vieira led out for 150,000, and Lindgren took some time before sticking in the call.

Vieira led again on the 10♠ river, this time for 245,000. Lindgren counted out a raise to 750,000, representing most of his remaining stack. After taking some time of his own, Vieira announced all in, putting his opponent to the test.

"For real?" asked Lindgren smiling and he counted the rest of his stack. Lindgren slid in the call.

"Straight flush," said Vieira as he revealed J♠9♠8♠2♣ in his hand. Lindgren slid his cards to the dealer, who tabled A♠K♣9♦4♠ for an ace-high flush, not good enough to avoid hitting the rail in 11th place.

Albert Daher: 7x6x / 4x4x3xJx / Xx

Albert Daher completed and short stack Christian Roberts called. Daher quickly called a bet after pairing on fourth and then raised Roberts bet on fifth street. Roberts called with his last few chips.

Roberts was ahead with nine-eight, which improved to an eight-five on sixth street. He peeled a Jx on seventh.

Daher needed a five, deuce or an ace to lock up the pot.

"You win," Daher said after he peeled his final card. It was never tabled and the pot was pushed to Roberts.

Mizrachi showed K♣K♥, which was no good as Yu tabled 8♦7♦5♦5♥ for a straight to claim the pot.

Joao Vieira raised from under the gun and called when Bryn Kenney reraised from the hijack. Vieira check-folded to a bet after the K♥8♥2♦ flop.

Soon after, Andrew Yeh raised from the button and Marco Johnson called from the big blind. Johnson check-called a bet on the K♠9♦7♦ flop, and then check-raised after the 3♦ turn. Yeh called the increased wager.

Johnson bet after the 2♣ completed the board. Yeh quickly called and showed a small sign of frustration after Johnson tabled J♦8♦ for a flush. Yeh flashed his KxKx to Johnson.

Kenney then raised from the small blind, and called when Esther Taylor raised from the big blind. Kenney check-folded to a bet on the Kx6x6x flop for E-Tay to take one down.

On the next deal, Taylor raised in the small blind. Yeh made it three-bets from the big blind and was called. Taylor called a bet on the A♦10♠5♣ flop, and then check-raised Yeh's bet after the J♣ turn. Yeh called.

Taylor fired out another bet on the Q♠ river and called when Yeh raised.

Taylor and Yeh chopped the pot after showing down K♥Q♥ and A♠K♣ respectively.
