Cong Pham on the button bet 75,000 on a board of A♥J♣3♣10♠4♦ with 100,000 in the pot. Christy Sheng in early position raised all-in for a bit more than 100,000 and Pham called.
Christy Sheng: K♦Q♥J♥10♥ 
Cong Pham: K♠Q♣8♦7♣
Both players had the same straight so they split the pot.
Cong Pham opened the action from early position for 3,500 and saw three players call behind. Christy Sheng called on the button, Lawrence Chang defended his small blind and Affif Prado defended his big blind.
The 10♦2♦6♦ flop saw all check to the 6♣ turn. Prado bet 3,500 and only Chang called.
A A♠ saw both check to showdown. Prado took the pot after showing A♥Q♠8♣6♠ for two pair.
Three-way on a flop of 2♠J♦5♥, Cong Pham in the hijack bet 6,000. Daniel Geeng on the button called but Lawrence Chang in the big blind check-raised to 24,000. Pham was the only one to call.
Both Chang and Pham checked the 4♦ turn leading to the 10♥ river where Chang bet 66,000.
Pham eventually made the call. "Straight? No," he said as Chang revealed J♠9♣8♠6♦. Pham had a set with A♠10♣4♥4♠ and won the hand.
The action was joined with 8,500 in the pot, and a 2♣K♠7♥K♥ board face up on the felt.
Richard Gryko bet 3,000 from the big blind, and Yang Wang called on the button.
The action checked through on the A♠ river, and Gryko announced jack-high. Wang tabled Q♦8♠8♣2♦ to claim the pot with his two pair, kings and eights.
"Don't report that hand", Jan-Peter Jachtmann at the table advised, "Nobody will understand it. One person bets, another calls, and nobody has anything".
"That's when you know you've made it as a poker player", Gryko added, "When you play a hand that doesn't make sense, and people presume the reporter got it wrong".
Gergo Nagy limped in from middle position, and Jordan Glazer raised to 4,500 from the hijack. Kyle Sturgis called on the button, and Nagy called, too.
The action checked through on the K♠6♠J♣ flop, and again on the 5♠ turn.
Nagy bet 5,500 on the A♦ river, and only Glazer looked him up.
Nagy tabled 7♠4♠4♦2♦ for a small flush, and Glazer mucked his hand.
Robert Cowen raised from middle position and was called by Billy Tarango to his left. Aaron Mermelstein on the button potted to 9,500 and was called by both Cowen and Tarango.
Mermelstein continued for 7,500 on the 7♠K♥2♦ flop and was called twice, then Cowen led out for 42,500 on the 8♣ turn. Tarango folded but Mermelstein made the call.
The 10♠ river was checked by Cowen who saw Mermelstein bet 55,000. Cowen with roughly 65,000 behind went deep into the tank and called with A♥Q♣2♥2♣ for a set. Mermelstein had A♠A♣K♣8♦.
Levon Khachatryan opened to 2,500 from under the gun and Stephen Hubbard three-bet to 8,500 from the small blind. Khachatryan called and the players went to the 10♦7♥9♣ flop.
Hubbard check-called a 7,500 bet by Khachatryan and the pair were taken to the 9♥ turn.
Quick checks came again and the Q♥ river card was placed. Khachatryan bet out 32,000 which sent Hubbard into the tank. He used two time cards and counted out the 32,000 chips from his stack but kept them in his hand.
He eventually called and Khachatryan showed his A♦Q♦10♣5♥ for two pair which saw Hubbard push his hand into the muck.
