Jesus Delgadillo raised to 9,000 from the hijack, and was called by the big blind Christopher Preziotti.
The flop came J♠Q♥2♣ and Preziotti check-called a bet of 21,500 from Delgadillo.
Both players checked after the 8♠ on the turn, which brought the 5♣ on the river. Preziotti then bet out 12,000, which Delgadillo debated his decision for nearly a minute, before mucking to give Preziotti the pot.

: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
A player raised to 7,000 from early position, and it folded to the small blind Rich Hasnip who three-bet to 22,000. Once the big blind folded, the original raiser made the call to see a flop.
After the K♠8♣9♠ flop the early position player called a bet of 16,000 from Hasnip.
Once the 6♥ hit, Hasnip checked to his opponent, who bet all in for Hasnip's stack of 51,000. After giving it some thought, he made the call to put himself at risk.
Rich Hasnip: Q♥Q♦ 
Early Position: J♣10♣
Hasnip correctly called with his pocket queens, but would have to fade the open ended straight draw of his opponent. But once the river brought the 5♦ the pockets queens were still best to give Hasnip the double up.

Action was picked up on the flop, the board was showing 10♠K♣7♠ with roughly 70,000 in the pot.
A player was all in for 44,000, L.D. Gray was all in for 150,000, and a covering stack putting both players at risk.
All in Player: K♦J♦
L.D. Gray: K♠Q♠
Opponent: Q♦Q♣
