Benny Glaser checked the small blind on a Q♣J♦8♥ flop. Dylan Weisman then bet 20,000 from the big blind, which Richard Bai called in the hijack.
Glaser also came along to the K♥ turn, where he took some time before leading out for 51,000.
Weisman and Bai both called, after which Glaser reverted to a check on the 2♦ river. Weisman bet 75,000, Bai called, and Glaser quickly mucked.
Weisman and Bai both tabled the nut straight with A♥K♣9♣10♣5♠ and A♣10♥8♠2♠2♥, and they chopped up the pot.
Ali Abduljabbar moved all in for 125,000 from middle position on a board of 10♥9♥8♦A♣ and John Monnette called for his last 60,000 in the hijack. Sam Soverel then called in the big blind to put both opponents at risk.
Monnette showed A♥A♦K♥K♠Q♠ for top set, but both Abduljabbar and Soverel had a straight, Abduljabbar with A♠Q♣J♣5♣3♠ and Soverel with J♦8♣8♥6♠2♦.
The 3♣ fell on the river, and Soverel ended up with a low to chop the pot with Abduljabbar. "Every hand is like that. It's insane," Monnette fumed as he made his way to the rail.
Ryan Miller raised to 15,000 under the gun and Joao Vieira reraised to 45,000 in the cutoff. Chino Rheem then potted to 149,000 on the button and Miller folded, while Vieira called all in for an additional 50,000.
Joao Vieira: A♠J♣J♠8♣3♠
Chino Rheem: A♣A♦10♠5♥3♦
The flop came K♠2♥5♠, while the 7♠ turn gave Vieira the nut flush with a low. Rheem had the same low, and Vieira ended up taking three quarters after the 9♥ fell on the river.
After heavy preflop action, Doug Lorgeree was all in for 387,000 in middle position, being looked up by Qinghai Pan in early position.
Doug Lorgeree: A♠A♦Q♥6♣3♦
Qinghai Pan: A♣K♥K♣8♣3♠
Pan flopped best on Q♠3♣8♦, but Lorgeree made a runner-runner flush on the 7♦10♦ turn and river to scoop the massive pot and double up.
Four players went to a flop of J♠Q♦5♦K♥ when Tyler Brown bet 22,000 from the hijack. Sam Soverel called in the cutoff, and Eli Karp then moved all in for 105,000 on the button. Brown folded, while Soverel called to put Karp at risk.
Both players showed the nut straight, Karp with A♥Q♥10♣5♣2♥ and Soverel holding A♣Q♠10♠4♣4♥, but Karp spiked the 5♥ on the river to make a full house and earn the double up.
Picking up the action on a 2♣Q♠K♠6♣ flop, Bruno Furth bet 75,000 into the pot of 77,000 from the hijack. James Obst then raised the pot to 302,000 on the button, which Furth called after some thought.
Furth quickly checked the 6♥ river, seeing Obst move his last 123,000 over the line in response. Furth went deep into the tank, spending several minutes thinking through the hand.
Eventually, he verbalized a call. Obst quickly tabled A♥7♣3♠2♥2♦ for a full house, besting the A♠A♣K♦J♠8♣ of Furth to scoop the pot and nearly a million in chips.
Yuhong Liu bet 75,000 from the button on a flop of 10♠2♦3♦ and Adrian Buckley then moved all in from the big blind. Liu snap-called for 145,000.
Yuhong Liu: A♦A♠5♥5♦3♣
Adrian Buckley: A♣K♥10♣8♣3♥
Buckley had outflopped Liu's aces with two pair, and the K♣ turn improved him to kings and tens. The J♥ completed the board on the river, and Buckley scored the knockout.
