Chris Lee and Ali Imsirovic invested 30,000 each on the flop and Lee then bet the turn for the size of the pot, making it 107,000 total. Imsirovic stuck around and the on the river was checked.

Ryan Hartmann in the cutoff saw a flop of against Ben Yu on the button with around 60,000 in the middle.
Hartmann checked on the flop and called a bet of 22,000 from Yu. Hartmann then led all-in on the turn and Yu snap-called.
Yu flipped over for a full house. Hartmann showed that he had an ace-high flush and threw his hand to the dealer face-down before a brick peeled off on the river.
Michael Heritsch ended up at risk on the turn and tabled the for the top two pair and the nut flush draw. Matthew Wantman looked him up with the superior stack and for a set and inferior flush draw. The river was a brick and Heritsch was sent to the rail.

"Diamond-diamond," Andjelko Andrejevic cheered from the seat beside Schwartz. The on the turn and the on the river gave Schwartz a back-door flush to double.

The board ran out and the aces of Foundoulakis were no good, as Foster made broadway to triple up and Cheong won the bigger side pot with an inferior straight.
