Big O
Carlos Sanchez raised to 90,000 in the hijack, and Jon Turner came along in the small blind. The dealer revealed the J♦7♦J♣ flop, where Turner bet the pot to put Sanchez all in. The call was made, and the hands were turned up.
Carlos Sanchez: A♣Q♦10♥4♦3♣
Jon Turner: A♥K♠7♣3♥3♦
Turner spiked the 3♠ turn to make a full house, while the K♦ river was not enough for Sanchez despite completing his flush, while also leaving no low on board.
That sent Sanchez to the payout desk, while Turner colored up several stacks of his T-5,000 chips.
Big O
Farhad Jamasi limped under the gun. Cory Blum raised to 65,000 on the button.
Scott Abrams, who was in the small blind, potted it to 245,000, almost his entire stack.
After Brevin Andreadis and Jamasi got out of the way, Blum raised enough to put Abrams all-in.
Scott Abrams: A♣J♣J♦10♦2♠
Cory Blum: A♥8♣7♥4♦3♣
The runout A♠8♦4♣6♥9♥ wasn't kind to Abrams, as Blum's two pair won the high and he managed a seven-low for the scoop.
Five Card PLO
Cory Blum raised in early position, making it 60,000 to go. Action folded around to Andrew Ostapchenko in the big blind, who made the call and checked the 7♦3♦Q♥ flop.
Blum continued for 70,000, and Ostapchenko quickly sent his cards into the muck.
"I'll show you two," said Blum before tabling A♦Q♦ as he raked in the chips.
Big O
Cory Blum raised from under the gun to 60,000, and Scott Abrams called as next to act. Liam Murphy tossed in a call from the big blind, and the dealer fanned out the 6♦K♠8♦ flop.
All three players opted to check through to the 8♥ turn, where Murphy checked again. Blum tossed out a bet of 65,000, producing folds from Abrams and Murphy to take down the pot.
Shortly after, Jun Weng was the next to make his way to the payout desk.
Five Card PLO Double Board
A♦7♣K♦6♥3♠
10♣A♣7♥10♦10♠
Sergio Benso bet 135,000 on the flop. Robert Galbraith moved all in with 200,000 chips. Benso made the call.
Robert Galbraith: Q♥Q♦J♠6♦5♦
Sergio Benso: A♥J♦10♥4♠2♦
Before tabling his hand, Galbraith declared that he needed some help. He was right. He was behind on both, with a flush draw on one board, and just his queens with two tens on the flop for the other.
The full board didn't save him, Benso had quads on one board and his pair of aces was good on the second.
Big O
Andrew Ostapchenko opened to 55,000 in early position, and Brevin Andreadis made the call on the button. Farhad Jamasi came along in the small blind, with Hokyiu Lee sliding in a call from the big blind.
Action checked around to Andreadis on the Q♥5♦10♣ flop, who bet 60,000. Only Jamasi called to see the J♥ turn, where both players checked. Another pair of checks followed the 3♣ river.
"Two pair," announced Jamasi.
"Which two?" asked Andreadis.
Jamasi tabled A♠Q♠5♣4♥2♥ for queens and fives, taking down the pot as Andreadis mucked his hand.
