Valentin Oberhauser opened to 8,000 on the button and was called by the player in the big blind.
Oberhauser's opponent check-called a 5,000 bet from Oberhauser on the Q♣6♣10♠ flop and the both players checked down on the 10♥ turn and 4♦ river.
The big blind turned over 9♦7♣ for a whiffed draw and Oberhauser tabled K♣5♥, which was enough to take down the pot.

The action was caught as Dwayne Pelham, in the cutoff, was all in and at risk for his effective stack of 40,500, against Marcelo Giordano, in middle position.
Dwayne Pelham: 3♥3♣
Marcelo Giordano: A♣K♣
The dealer fanned the action flop of 8♣10♣3♦; Pelham had made a set, but Giordano picked up outs to a flush draw. The Q♥ turn gave Giordano even more outs to make Broadway.
"Don't do me like that," Pelham politely said to the dealer. However, the J♣ river did not oblige, completing Giordano's flush.
"Straight flush!" Giordano joked to the table.

Robert Goldbaum: K♥K♦
Jordan Breitbach: Q♠Q♥
The board ran out 4♣9♣A♦8♠10♥ and Goldbaum held on to build some momentum and chip up midway through Day 3.

Derek Nold had his entire stack of around 55,000 in the middle from the hijack and had been called by Taras Sopotnytskyi on the button & the big blind.
On the 10♠6♦5♦ flop, the big blind checked, Sopotnytskyi bet 75,000, and the big blind folded.
Derek Nold: A♣10♦
Taras Sopotnytskyi: Q♦Q♠
Nold was looking to improve but neither the 2♥ turn nor K♣ river could keep him alive.
As the river was dealt, the big blind slammed his fist onto the table and revealed that he had A♠K♠.
"I should have shoved over you pre," said the big blind.
