Pot-Limit Omaha

Qinghai Pan raised to 4,200 under the gun and Naoya Kihara called in the hijack.

The flop came 8♦4♠10♦ and Pan bet 11,400. Kihara then moved all in for 43,000, and Pan called.

Naoya Kihara: K♥J♠10♥8♣ All in
Qinghai Pan: K♦Q♥J♥7♦

Kihara had flopped top two pair, while Pan had straight and flush draws. The turn was the A♥, while the 6♠ river was safe for Kihara to secure the double-up.

"PLO specialist," tablemate Christopher Vitch told him.

Dara Taherpour was all in against Dario Sammartino in a hand of Seven Card Stud and ended up with a diamond flush. Sammartino mucked, but the rest of the table insisted that Sammartino had a higher flush and should've won the pot to eliminate Taherpour.

Taherour didn't dispute it, and they asked tournament officials to check the cameras. It took nearly 20 minutes, but it was determined that Sammartino's cards couldn't be conclusively determined on the footage, and Taherpour was allowed to stay in the tournament.
