Justin Liberto: XxXx/K1028/Xx

Shack-Harris bet on seventh street to see Liberto raise him all in for his final bet. Shack-Harris called.

Both players tabled their hands, with Liberto tabling AK6 for an ace-king-ten high flush. It was no good against Shack-Harris, who tabled AQ7 for an ace-king-queen high flush and a seven-five low to scoop.

Naoya Kihara: 85897 / Q / Xx All in
Robert Mizrachi: 34673 / 5 / 8

Naoya Kihara was all-in on fifth street against Robert Mizrachi, and both players had already meshed their boards until then. Mizrachi improved to the seven-high straight on sixth street to leave Kihara on very thin ice, needing one of the three remaining sixes to improve to a superior straight.

Mizrachi then further improved to an eight-high straight on seventh street, and Kihara bricked.

Michael Mizrachi can also be found on the same table and has already more than doubled his stack.
