Earlier on table 368, our reporter picked up the action between Praz Bansi and Steven Burkholder on a flop of {4-Spades} {4-Hearts} {K-Clubs} , Bansi led out for 5,000 and Burkholder called, then Bansi checked his option on the turn of the {10-Clubs} , only to fold after Burkholder opened for 8,000.

Then on table 370, we saw Michael McDonald and Benjamin Pollak go heads-up to a flop that read {2-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {2-Clubs} . Pollak bet 13,400 and McDonald called from the button, but he then folded after Pollak potted all-in on the turn of the {8-Diamonds} .
