There was a middle position open by Bryan Robitaille-Fequet to 3,500 before it folded to Danesh Luthra in the cutoff who called and then the big blind defended.
The 9♣A♥5♣ flop landed and the action checked all the way to Luthra who put out a bet of 2,500. Only Robitaille-Fequet called on their way to a flush completing K♣.
The action slowed down and checked through to a 3♥ river. Robitaille-Fequet checked again before Luthra went for another bet of 4,200.
Robitaille-Fequet went into the tank for a moment but eventually flicked in a call. Luthra tabled K♥9♥ for two pair and Robitaille-Fequet mucked.

There was an under the gun open to 2,400 that got four calls from middle position, the button, Peter Raimondi in the small blind, and the big blind.
The A♦6♦2♦ flop landed and the action checked all the way to the button who bet 6,500. Only Raimondi called.
The 6♠ rolled off on the turn and the action checked through to a 7♠ river. Raimondi checked again and the button bet 18,000. Raimondi took a moment and then moved all in having his opponent covered. The button called and got the bad news...it was a cooler.
Raimondi rolled over K♦8♦ for the nuts and the button tabled Q♦7♦ for the second nuts. Raimondi scooped and is still running pure

Christopher Baoukian open jammed in early position for 27,000 before the action folded to Alexander Tan in the small blind who flicked in a call and the big blind folded.

Alexander Tan: 8♠8♥
The full board ran out 10♥2♠K♥A♦J♣ and Baoukian earned the pure double with the rockets.
The very next there was a middle position limp followed by Tan jamming the button for his last 13,000. Baoukian was in the big blind and rejammed. The remaining players folded and it was the same players heads up, two hands in a row.

Christopher Baoukian: K♠Q♠
The full board ran out 4♣2♣K♣10♠5♣ and in just two hands, Tan hit the rail and Baoukian built himself a workable stack.

There was an early position limp before middle position and the cutoff also limped. The button then raised to 5,500 before the small blind cold called and action was on Michael Trickey in the big blind.
There was hefty pile of dead money out there and some limpers left to act. Trickey thought for a moment and them moved all in for his last 29,000 with multiple players covering him.
One by one each players mucked till it got to the small blind. He sat in the tank for over a minute before finally finding a fold. Trickey didn't need to get tricky on this one. He just ripped it in and scooped it back. Easy game.

Peter Raimondi opened under the gun to 1,600 before the action moved to the button who flat called. The small blind folded and then the big blind put in a three-bet to the tune of 6,100. Raimondi called and then the button back jammed for 28,000. The big blind then rejammed for 75,000. Raimondi thought for a moment and then put in the chips to put himself at risk.
The cards hit their backs.
Button: 8♦8♠
Peter Raimondi: 10♥10♣
Big Blind: A♣Q♠
Raimondi was in the lead but needed to fade a lot to hold. The full board ran out K♠J♦9♠9♥7♥ and Raimondi scooped a massive pot with his pair of tens after his opponents put on all the pressure.
