Sitbon Shows a Flush
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Blinds Julien Sitbon and Johan Guilbert both checked on a flop of 5♥3♦3♥, leading to a bet from Ren Lin in middle positon, which both of his opponents called, creating a pot of 86,000 in the process.
The 2♥ turn and 2♦ river was then checked by all players, and Sitbon tabled his 10♥7♥ for a flush as the first to show. The other players mucked their cards and Sitbon was awarded the sizable pot.

Brewer Plays It Tricky
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
The action folded to Chris Brewer in the small blind and he limped in. Eelis Parssinen sat in the big blind and raised to 7,000 before Brewer three-bet to 27,000 shortly thereafter. Parssinen made the call and the pair saw a flop of 8♦7♦A♦, which they both checked.
The 4♥ turn then saw Brewer up the aggression again with a bet of 30,000. Parssinen made the call and the Q♠ river completed the board. Brewer upped the ante to 95,000 on this card, and Parssinen followed with a swift fold, extending Brewer's chip lead by a bit.

"Show One" at Table 44
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Santhosh Suvarna opened to 4,500 in early position and Timothy Adams three-bet to 17,000 on the button. Alexandra Botez made the call in the big blind, with Suvarna also calling.
All three players checked the 3♣Q♥2♠ flop before Botez led out for 35,000 on the 2♦ turn. Suvarna mucked, as did Adams. Botez smiled as she showed the Q♦ while raking in another pot.
The table has decided to "show one when you win" and Botez was happy to show her two pair.

Guilbert On Half a Stack
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Johan Guilbert had already taken some hits to his stack when he raised to 4,500 from under the gun. Ben Heath made the call from the cutoff, as did Joakim Andersson in the big blind.
The flop of 6♥5♦K♠ saw Andersson check to Guilbert, who continued for 5,000 chips. Heath made another call before Andersson got out of the way.
The 9♠ turn was then dealt and Guilbert slowed down with a check, prompting Heath to fire a bet of 20,000. Guilbert quickly mucked his cards and was left with less than half of the 500,000 chips he started the day with.
