John Goyette: A♦Q♥3♣2♣

The board came 8♣5♣9♥8♥6♠, chopping the low with each player's ace-deuce, while McCarthy's pair of fives was enough to take the high half of the pot for himself.

Mike Linster limped from middle position and Michael Rodrigues limped along from the cutoff. John Goyette then raised to 250,000 on the button and both Linster and Rodrigues called.

Action checked to Goyette on the 6♠9♣2♣ flop and he continued for a 330,000 bet. Both players called.

Linster shoved for 1,400,000 on the Q♠ turn, which got a fold from Rodrigues, but a call from Goyette to put Linster at risk.

Mike Linster: A♠Q♣4♠2♠
John Goyette: A♣K♠10♠3♣

The A♥ completed the board, bricking Goyette's flush and straight draws and improving Linster to aces and queens for the full double up.

The 6♠ completed the board and Goyette wagered 885,000. Kopp thought for a bit and then announced a pot-sized raise, which was enough to put Goyette all in.

Goyette went deep into the tank, but eventually found a fold and Kopp took down the pot.

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

After Loni Hui raised to 280,000 from the cutoff, Michael Rodrigues re-potted and Hui committed her entire 1,045,000 chip stack.

Loni Hui: A♦K♦6♣3♦
Michael Rodrigues: A♠K♣Q♥2♥

The 8♣2♣7♦ flop gave Hui the nut low, while Rodrigues had a pair of deuces. The 3♥ however changed everything, as it gave Hui a better pair of threes, while her ace-six was also still in play for the low.

The 8♠ hit neither player and Hui doubled with her pair of threes and ace-six low.
