With K♠10♥, Martin Kabrhel raised the button to 2,500 and Julien Sitbon three-bet to 12,000 from the big blind holding A♠K♥. Kabrhel called and the flop fell 5♣10♣J♥.
Sitbon bet 8,000, which Kabrhel called to see a Q♠ arrive on the turn.
Sitbon fired a second barrel of 40,000, which was enough to get Kabrhel fold.
With the board showing 2♣8♣5♣6♥, Ivan Deyra bet 2,000 from the big blind and Thomas Muehloecker called on the button.
A final bet of 3,500 came from Deyra when he saw the K♠ river. Muehloecker called, but then mucked upon seeing the Q♣7♣ from Deyra for a flopped flush.
Phil Ivey raised to 10,000 preflop with pocket eights 8♦8♥, then fired another 8,000 on a flop of 7♠5♠Q♥.
Shota Nakanishi made the call with his flush draw 10♠4♠.
The board paired on the turn of Q♦, and Ivey again led out, this time for 20,000. Nakanishi stayed in.
The river brought the 3♠, which finally slowed Ivey, who checked. Nakanishi bet 100,000 with a flush.
Ivey's eyes darted from the board to Nakanishi and back, for just over a minute before he elected to fold.
Doug Polk raised to 3,000 on the button and Nikolai Mamut three-bet to 12,000 from the big blind. Polk four-bet to 36,000 with 10♠8♥, and Mamut continued with a call holding K♦K♠.
On the 3♥6♥4♣ flop, Mamut went for a check, and Polk bet 48,000. Mamut raised to 96,000, which got Polk to fold.
Phil Ivey raised to 3,000 and Shota Nakanishi defended the big blind.
Nakanishi check-called a bet of 1,800 on the 2♣Q♦A♥ flop.
An 8♠ on the turn checked through for the 4♥ to hit the river. Nakanishi bet 3,000 and Ivey made the call.
Nakanishi turned over 2♠2♥ for a flopped set to win the pot, as Ivey mcuked 9♣8♥ for a pair of eights.
Julien Sitbon raised to 3,000 on the button, and Martin Kabrhel called in the big blind.
The dealer spread a A♥Q♣10♥ flop, which saw the action check through.
Both players checked on the 5♣ turn as well, prompting Kabrhel to lead out for 8,200 on the K♦ river.
A curious Sitbon looked him up, but it was bad news. Kabrhel had rivered a straight with his J♠8♠, and which Sitbon could not beat with his 10♠4♠.
