Before the flop, the cutoff moved all in for around 25,000 and Taylor Howard wasn't going to let that fly on his watch so he made the call from the small blind to put him at risk.
Cutoff: K♥9♥
Taylor Howard: A♥J♠
Howard was in the lead to start, but on the turn 6♠4♦5♥K♠, his opponent took the lead with a pair of kings. Unfortunatley for him, the river was the pesky A♣ to pair Howard's ace to take the pot, eliminating his opponent.

A player opened to 3,100 preflop and was called by three players before the big blind raised it up to 12,000. Only Jon Gibbs and one other player made the call to see the flop of 2♣6♥2♥.
The big blind player then moved all in and Gibbs quickly called to put him at risk after the other player got out of the way.
Big Blind: Q♠Q♣
Jon Gibbs: 2♠4♠
Gibbs was only dodging a queen to stay in the lead, but the turn quickly fixed that as it came the 2♦ to improve him to qauds and he was awarded the pot when the 6♦ hit the river.
"Just knew it was coming, huh?" the table joked to Gibbs, who just smiled as he raked in the pot.

On a heads-up completed board of K♥3♣8♦6♥Q♣, Dan Kline led for 5,000 but then Ray Rife immediately bumped up the price to 20,000.
Klibe wasted no time and quickly tossed in a chip to call, but was then shown 8♥8♣ for a flopped set of eights by Rife.
"Wowww," Kline said, stunned, as he then flipped over 6♠6♦ for a turned set of sixes as the pot was pushed over to Rife.

On a three-way flop of K♥10♠5♠, action checked to Greg Raymer who bet 3,300 and was called only by one player to see the turn A♥.
Raymer continued for 6,000 and again his opponent check-called.
The river fell the 8♥ and after another check, Raymer fired for 15,000, resulting in a fold from his opponent to award him the pot.

After checking through the flop of 2♣6♠9♦, Daryl Oppelt led the turn Q♠ for 3,000 into the pot of 10,500. His opponent then shoved all in for around 20,000 and Oppelt quickly called to put him at risk.
Oppoennt: A♦J♦
Daryl Oppelt: 9♥9♠
Only running diamonds could lose the pot for Oppelt, but the runout of Q♠6♣ did not do it and he scooped the pto while his opponent was sent t the rail.
