Middle Position: K♣J♠
Brandon Casper: A♥10♦
The board ran clean for Casper, 3♥8♥4♥4♦6♣, knocking the other player out and giving Casper new life.

David Lay called from the big blind after the cutoff bet 3,000 on a K♦J♦7♠ flop.
Both players checked the 8♠ turn, then Lay pushed 7,000 in front of him when the 8♦ hit the river. The cutoff folded, and Lay added to his growing stack.

Alex Lavoie was seen doubling up with queens, happily sharing his thought process while his opponent across the table laughed the situations off, paying heed to all the attention the table was getting.
Shortly after Lavoie went all in on a flop of 2♠K♠5♠ and when his opponent folded, he couldn't help but show the A♦K♣, explaining he had to and how he hated to play ace-king. An opponent across the table chirped in that he would gladly play it every hand if he could.
Just one hand later Jerry Yang, Alex Lavoie, and Bentola Akpata saw a flop of 7♠Q♠10♦. Yang led with a bet of 6,000 and Lavoie was at a decision. Akpata, not realizing that the action was on Lavoie, went all in out of turn for 11,100. Lavoie laughed, folding, and mentioned Akpata only made his decision easier. Yang was then at a decision but was well priced in against the short stack.
Bentola Akpata: K♥J♣
Jerry Yang: Q♣J♣
The turn brought the A♣, making Broadway for Akpata and when the Q♦ fell, it made no difference to Yang, forced to more than double up his opponent.
Lavoie went on to say he folded a queen as well and Yang seemed to be the only one without much to say.

Teresa Jacquez raised 5,000 from early position and a late position player called. Jacquez continued for 12,000 on a A♠K♥5♦, and that's when her opponent locked himself in a torture tank.
For over three minutes he put his hand to his forehead, pinched the bridge of his nose, and smacked his forehead until he finally let his cards out of his hand as reluctantly as if they were the last two cards he would ever be dealt.
"Please don't tell me you had jacks," he said.
Jacquez chuckled, started to turn her hand over, and instead twisted the knife one more rotation as she set them in the pile by the dealer.

After the 5♦Q♠K♠ flop was checked around, the big blind led out 4,200 on the 3♠ turn, a late position player and Diane Hartley called.
When the 4♠ river was checked to her, Hartley went all in for 17,200. The big blind riffled his chips, and then flipped several of them in his hand while he thought, and then folded.
The late position player folded also, telling the big blind, "I hoped you were going to call her. I want to know what she had."
"Nice bluff," the big blind told Hartley, but the late position player disagreed. "She calls your 4,200 after I call in front of her? No, she had something. I just don't know if she flopped it, or got there."
