HomeWith a possible big pot brewing, a 4♦ Q♠ 7♦ A♦ board saw Marcuss Liow get all his remaining 7975 chips in the middle. SJ Kim and the big blind player called. The river of 6♠ was then dealt and the bb player pushed all in, a total of 3775 chips to start off the side pot. Kim called and it was time to show cards. Kim had 9♦ 6♦ for a flush giving him the side pot against the bb’s Q♣ 4♣ two pairs, but he would lose the main pot against Liow who held J♦ 10♦ for a higher flush.
Catching the action after the dealer felted the river card, the board was 4♠ 7♣ 9♦ 5♣ 3♣. The sb player bet 2500 and Rivera flat-called. Rivera won with his 5♠ 5♦ set.
Michael Artis was all in with his short stack of 4900 and was called by Royly Oracion. Artis had A♠ Q♠ which were two overcards to Oracion’s J♣ J♠. With the board running 5♥ 7♥ 2♣ 3♥ Q♣, Artis got his double up.
Lester Edoc just bluffed a player out of a pot in a hand that saw a board of 3♠ 6♣ J♥. Edoc checked to the hijack player who bet 700. Edoc responded with a raise to 1775 which was answered back with a re-raise to 3775. Edoc then fired once more, this time for 6275 and the hijack player surrendered his hand. Edoc showed his 9♣ 5♣ bluff.
With no limpers before him, a player in the hijack seat shoved with his 8k stack, a very playable stack at 40 times the blind, and quickly Sebastian Benz called. The rest of the table folded and it was a showdown with the hj player holding 4♠ 2♦ and Benz with A♦ A♥. The board bricked and Benz busted another.

Kunal Patni got aggressive and shoved all in on a board of 7♥ 9♠ 6♣. After tanking for some time, he was called and it was a showdown. Patni had J♠ 8♠ and the caller had A♥ 7♠ mid pair. The turn of 9♣ was no help to Patni, but the river sure was as it landed one of his outs 10♣ for a straight. Patni doubles up to 25k.
Lester Edoc likes his suited connectors, especially when it wins him a healthy pot. The recent hand began with a min raise by Edoc to 300, was three-bet by the button player to 825, and Edoc called. At the flop of 7♦ 5♦ 5♥, Edoc checked then called a 1k bet. On the turn of 6♥, Edoc changed it up and led out 3k which, in reverse, was called. On the river of 6♣, Edoc continued and led for 6k. After being called, Edoc won the pot with his 8♠ 9♠ straight.
