: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Christian Pedersen opened to 100,000 from the button and Boris Kolev called from the big blind.
Kolev check-called for 80,000 on the 7♦5♠3♠ flop, before leading out for 110,000 on the 5♥ turn. Pederson called. The K♦ river checked through to showdown, where Kolev tabled A♠J♣. Pedersen had that beat with 8♥8♣.
On the next deal, Mike Watson raised from the hijack to 110,000. Pedersen three-bet to 330,000, which took down the pot preflop.
On the other table, Mehdi Chaoui opened to 100,000 from middle position. Zackary Estes defended the big blind. The 7♣6♦4♦ flop checked through to the 5♥ turn. Estes fired out 100,000 and folded out Chaoui.
