Pot-Limit Omaha

After Talal Shakerchi raised to 37,000 on the button, Benny Glaser put 62,000 of his remaining 64,000 chips in the middle.

Shakerchi reraised to get the last 2,000 in and Glaser called.

Benny Glaser: A♦K♣J♠5♥
Talal Shakerchi: A♠A♣6♠5♠

The K♠Q♣2♥ flop gave Glaser hope, pairing his king, but the 2♣ on the turn left Glaser needing only a king or ten to survive.

instead the dealer put the 3♠ out on the river, ending Glaser's day and bringing the field down to 22 players.

Talal Shakerchi raised to 31,000 from early position and James Obst three-bet to 75,000 from the button.

After a brief deliberation, Obst made the call.

Shakerchi tabled J♦J♣10♥6♠ for one pair, jacks and Obst showed down, 10♠7♦5♠3♦ for two pair, enough to take the pot.

Pot-Limit Omaha

Phil Ivey opened to 35,000 from middle position and was called by Elior Sion in the big blind.

Sion checked and then called a bet of 40,000 from Ivey after the flop came A♠J♥K♦.

The 6♣ turn saw Sion check for a second time and then call again after Ivey pushed 150,000 into the middle.

Once the 8♦ river completed the board, Sion checked for a third time. Ivey responded by counting out a bet of 400,000, putting Sion to the test for almost all of his remaining chips. After several minutes, Sion, who appeared to be going through the wringer, folded his hand, showing the table A♦A♣ while keeping his other two cards face down to leave himself fairly short as the money bubble approaches.

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Kristopher Thong had previously been bluffed out of a pot by Josh Arieh on a king-high river when the latter showed 5♠4♠ for a missed straight draw. "I had a rebluff, I had queen-high," Tong mentioned to his table mate before the game variant switched.

Maxx Coleman raised to 30,000 on the button and Tong three-bet to 130,000 in the big blind. The call by Coleman led to the drawing round on which both players discarded one.

Tong bet 185,000 for Coleman to tank-call and the 8x7x4x3x2x of Tong won the pot.

Pot Limit Omaha

In a battle of the blinds, the turn showed 9♦6♥2♥3♣ and Johannes Becker made it 164,000 to go out of the small blind for Phil Ivey to call in the big blind. That brought them to the 7♠ river and Becker moved forward a bet worth 492,000 for a large portion of his remaining stack.

"How much do you have?" Ivey inquired and glanced at his table neighbour. Ten seconds later, he announced "all-in" and that sent Becker into a world of pain. He instantly sighed and leaned back, groaning, then moved up his hoodie to stare at the board with just one eye.

The tank of Becker lasted just two minutes before he sent the cards into the muck, allowing Ivey to drag in a large pot and join the chip leaders.

After Talal Shakerchi raised in the cutoff, James Obst three-bet in the small blind and Shakerchi quickly called.

The flop came A♥4♠9♣ and Obst bet, which Shakerchi quickly called.

On the A♣ turn, Obst now checked and then faced a bet from Shakerchi. The chip leader went into the tank for about a minute then made the call.

The river brought the 5♣ and after another check from Obst, Shakerchi bet once more. This time he was met with a check-raise from Obst, prompting Shakerchi to quickly fold.

John Monnette opened to 30,000 from under the gun before Marco Johnson three-bet to 100,000 from the cutoff. Ray Dehkharghani then put in a cold four-bet to 275,000 out of the small blind, getting a quick fold from Monnette. Johnson, meanwhile, went deep into the tank as he considered his options.

After a while, he did send his holding into the muck to avoid a potentially massive clash with his opponent, instead taking a small hit to his stack.
