Jason Daly bet 4,500 from the cutoff on a board of 7♦2♣10♦9♠ and an opponent in the small blind called. George Dolofan then raised to 15,000 in early position and Daly called, while the small blind got out of the way.
The river was the 5♥ and Dolofan bet 20,000. Daly quickly called and Dolofan showed 8♥6♥ for a straight.
"That's good," Daly said as he mucked.
Action was caught after the turn of 2♥10♣Q♥7♠ and middle position fired for 1,100. Gabi Livshitz made the call from late position.
The river was the A♥ and the middle position checked to Livshitz.
He fired for 7,000 and received a quick fold from his opponent.
Koray Aldemir opened to 500 from middle position. Serge Bottelli called from the hijack before Ron West three-bet to 1,500 from the cutoff.
Aldemir thought for a few moments before four-betting to 6,000. This was followed by two quick folds from Bottelli and West.
Picking up the action on the river with a sizable pot already brewing, Jose Rodriguez on the button was involved in a hand with Ruoxiao Shi in late position.
With the board reading A♣8♦J♥6♠6♦ Shi bet 15,000. Rodriguez responded by moving all in for 20,200 and was promptly called. Shi showed A♥K♥ but came up second best against Rodriguez, who had a full house holding J♣J♠ to secure a full double, leaving Shi relatively short.
Eric Wasylenko raised to 500 from under the gun and the cutoff made the call.
The flop came Q♠Q♣J♠ and both players were quick to check.
While the turn and river peeled the 8♣5♣, both players checked it down.
Wasylenko's "best ace high" with A♠K♥ was good enough to take it down.
Clément Michaud opened to 500 from middle position, then called after the cutoff three-bet to 1,500.
Both players checked the 6♦7♥8♠ flop to find the K♥ turn where the cutoff bet 2,000. Michaud check-called.
The 4♦ river landed on the felt. Michaud checked, then the cutoff fired a second barrel of 5,000.
Michaud went into the tank and called, but threw his cards into the muck when the cutoff flipped over 8♦7♣ for two pair.
Picking up the action on the flop, Hal Marcus in the big blind was involved in a hand with Michel Leibgorin in middle position.
With the board reading Q♣3♥10♣ Marcus check-called a bet of 800 from Leibgorin.
Leibgorin bet again after Marcus checked to him on the 3♠ turn, this time making it 2,100. As before, Marcus called.
Neither player put any more chips in the pot following the 9♥ river with Marcus emerging best holding Q♥J♣ to continue his solid start to the day.
Ryan Brauer limped in from under the gun before the big blind raised to 700. Brauer reraised to 2,200 and his opponent called.
Brauer continued for 1,600 on 8♦5♠3♠ and the big blind made the call.
Action went check-check on the Q♠ turn before the big blind bet the minimum of 200 on the 3♥ river. Brauer called and tabled A♥A♣ for the winner. The big blind showed 8♥7♥ before mucking.
There was around 10,000 in the pot as four players went to the turn on a board of 10♠3♣6♠J♣. Urs Blunier then bet 6,000 from the hijack and was called by the cutoff, Glenn Difurio in early position, and another opponent in middle position.
The river was the 9♥ and Blunier bet another 8,000. Only Difurio called this time.
"Ace-ten," Blunier said, but Difurio showed K♠J♠ for a pair of jacks as he took the pot.
"I thought for sure somebody had a set," tablemate and 2009 November Niner Steven Begleiter added.
