On the tail end of a 9♠9♣2♣J♥6♣ board, Ramon Miquel Munoz bet 9,300 out of the big blind and the dealer already tossed the all-in triangle towards him. The Spaniard then moved his hands away to reveal one T-25,000 chip behind and the all-in triangle vanished again.

Daniel Ferketa called the bet and was shown the A♣5♣ for the ace-high flush by Miquel Munoz, which won the pot.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Sam Johnson, Robert Burlacu, and Todd Phillips were three-ways to a turn of 6♣5♦6♦7♠. Johnson and Phillips had checked from the small blind and early position respectively before Burlacu made a bet of 13,500 into the pot of 23,000.

Johnson then jammed all in, covering the other two players. Phillips quickly folded but Burlacu tanked for 30 seconds or so before committing his stack.

Robert Burlacu: K♠K♦ All in
Sam Johnson: 7♣5♠

Burlacu had the higher two pair with his kings and sixes, but the 5♥ river gave Johnson a full house to eliminate his opponent.
