Ekrem Bozkurt
Ekrem Bozkurt

Heads-up on a flop of A87, Ekrem Bozkurt bet 5,000 from under the gun and Andrey Santos raised to 15,000 in the big blind. Bozkurt called and the 4 fell on the turn.

Santos bet 25,000 and Bozkurt moved all in for 108,500. Santos snap-called with A8 for two pair, while Bozkurt had AK as he was at risk.

The river, though, was the K and Bozkurt spiked a higher two pair to win the pot and double up. Santos snapped a photo of the board before handing over the massive pot worth around 250,000.

Quinn Lowry
Quinn Lowry

Quinn Lowry opened to 2,500 in early position and Terrence Reid called from the next seat before Matthew Olsen three-bet jammed a stack of 12,500 from the cutoff. Both opponents called to bring a groan from Olsen.

Lowry bet 6,000 on the flop of 856 and Reid called. Lowry then pushed out a stack of 50,000 on the A turn to put Reid in the tank. Reid eventually folded to hold onto his remaining 45,000.

Matthew Olsen: QQ All in
Quinn Lowry: 87

Olsen was in front with queens until the 4 landed on the river to give Lowry a straight.

"I thought someone hit the ace," Olsen said before leaving the table.

Charles Honkonen

Heads-up on a board of 4K3J, Caleb Piderit bet 4,500 from middle position and Charles Honkonen raised to 20,000 in the big blind. Piderit then moved all in and Honkonen called for 59,600.

Piderit had A9 for the nut flush draw, while Honkonen had KJ for two pair. The river was the 3 and Honkonen held on to double up off Piderit, who busted him earlier in the day.

"He's going to note that as my revenge hand," Honkonen said as he took in the pot.

Death by Quads For Platt

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Jeff Platt
Jeff Platt

A player in early position raised to 2,200 and Jeff Platt called in the cutoff. Satheesh Francis then three-bet to 11,300 in the small blind and the early-position player called. Platt then moved all in for 47,000, Francis reshoved, and the original raiser got out of the way.

Jeff Platt: AQ All in
Satheesh Francis: KK

Any hope Platt had of surviving the hand completely disappeared once the KK10 flop fell to give Francis quads. "He dealt those off the bottom. He's laughing," a tablemate joked about the dealer.

"That's a tough hand to beat," Platt said as the 99 completed the board. Platt headed straight to the registration desk to reenter and ended up drawing the same seat.
