Santhosh Amingad opened the cutoff to 3,000 and Benny Glaser three-bet from the small blind to 12,000. Once the big blind folded, Amingad made the call.
They saw a flop of 2♦Q♦6♠ where Glaser bet 7,000, and Amingad called.
When the A♥ landed on the turn, Glaser continued the aggression with another bet of 25,500, and again Amingad called.
On the J♥ river, Glaser slowed down with a check, and after some thinking, Amingad checked back.
Glaser tabled K♦J♦ for a pair of jacks, but Amingad had the winner with A♦9♦ after he turned a pair of aces.

Tom Dwan raised to 3,000 in early position before Johannes Becker three-bet to 12,000 on the button. Dwan called and they went heads-up to the K♣10♦3♦ flop.
Becker bet another 11,000 and Dwan called. Both players then checked the A♣ turn.
The river was the K♥ and Becker fired out 34,000. Dwan immediately turned around the table and leaned back in his chair as he shuffled his chips for several minutes. He eventually tossed them in to call and Becker showed him K♠Q♠ for trips to win the pot.

Action folded to a player in middle position, and he raised to 3,000. Jordan Spurlin called from the hijack, as did Stanley Tang on the button.
The flop came 3♣A♠Q♣ and all three players checked to the turn.
After the 8♦ on the turn, the middle position player bet out 4,000. Spurlin called, and Tang folded.
The river was the 4♦ and the middle position player checked to Spurlin, who bet 26,500 to put his opponent all in. After taking a minute to think over his decision, he did make the call.
Spurlin tabled A♥10♥ for a pair of aces, and the all-in player tossed K♠K♥ into the muck as they left the tournament area.

Heads-up on a board of Q♦J♦7♦8♣, a player in the small blind bet 12,000 before Michael Wang moved all in for 32,000.
The small blind was barely covered by Wang and tanked for a minute before he called, showing A♥K♠ for a straight draw. Wang had 8♠8♦ for a set of eights and held up on the 6♥ river to send his opponent to the rail.
