With around 17,000 in the pot on a board of 7♠6♣A♦9♣, Brandon Wilson bet 6,000 from the hijack and Adam Hendrix called in the small blind.
The river came the 3♣ and Wilson bet another 15,000, leaving himself just one yellow 1,000 chip behind. Hendrix quickly raised enough to put him all in and Wilson tossed in his last chip.
Wilson had A♠10♥ for top pair, but Hendrix had spiked the river with K♣7♣ to make a flush and send Wilson to the rail.
Matt Berkey and Mikita Badziakouski have taken their seats at this table.

Andrew Moreno raised to 4,000 from the hijack before Ben Lamb, next to act, three-bet to 14,000. Action folded back to Moreno, and he stuck around with a call.
The flop came 6♣9♥7♥ and Moreno checked over to Lamb, who bet 17,000. Moreno quickly called and the 6♠ fell on the turn.
Moreno checked once more and Lamb fired out 41,000 this time. Moreno gave it some thought before sliding his cards back to the dealer.

Brandon Wilson bet out 18,000 on a board of Q♠10♥3♣ and Chris Brewer called from the button. The turn brought the A♦. Wilson checked, Brewer bet 40,000, and Wilson called. Wilson checked again on a 2♦ river. Brewer shoved 75,000 into the middle, holding back only one purple 500 chip. Wilson called instantly, showing A♣K♣, and Brewer a failed bluff attempt with J♥9♥.
Brewer was moved to another table where he found himself immediately all in. Darren Elias raised 4,000 from under the gun, Brewer called for his last 500, and both blinds called. No one could best Brewer's 8♠9♠ when he made two pair on a K♦10♥K♥9♣4♦ runout, and Brewer had increased his stack to 2,000.
Brewer doubled up again, shoving those 2,000 chips into the middle. The button and big blind called. There was no further action on the side on a board of 3♣4♣8♦4♦2♣. Brewer showed his Q♣4♣, the other two mucked, and Brewer said, "Wow, 15x in two hands!"

Daniel Negreanu opened from under the gun for 32,000 into a 50,000 pot on a board of K♠9♣2♥Q♠2♣. Mitchell Halverson raised to 80,000 from the big blind.
Negreanu took a moment to employ his famous reading skills, putting Halverson on "Queen-jack or king-jack of clubs," and then called. Halverson showed 9♦9♠ for trips on the flop and boat on the river, and Negreanu mucked.

Jake Kalb three-bet to 8,000 from the button before Brek Schutten, in the cutoff, reraised to 22,000. Kalb five-bet to 50,000 and Schutten called to see the 8♦10♠8♥ flop.
Schutten announced he was all in and Kalb snap-called for around 70,000 with K♠K♥. Schutten turned over A♠K♣ and needed to improve to earn the knockout.
The 6♦ turn and J♥ river missed Schutten as Kalb doubled up and left Schutten on an extreme short stack.
Justin Bonomo recently took his seat at this table.

Shaun Deeb raised to 3,000 from the button before Corel Theuma, in the small blind, moved all in for around 20,000. Kevin Rabichow in the big blind gave it some thought before he moved all in for around 50,000. "Call," Deeb quickly said, having both players covered.
Corel Theuma: Q♠4♠
Kevin Rabichow: A♥Q♣
Shaun Deeb: A♦K♥
Deeb was ahead and poised for a double knockout as the flop came J♠7♠6♦. The 8♠ fell on the turn to improve Theuma to a flush and he secured the triple up when the 7♥ came on the river. Deeb won the side pot with his king-kicker to send Rabichow to the rail.
