Nível 6 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau limped the small blind and James Chen checked his option.

When the 7♠6♣4♣ flop hit the felt, Vaskaboinikau fired 12,000 and Chen called.

The J♥ landed on the turn, and Vaskaboinikau continued for 33,000 before Chen raised to 100,000. Vaskaboinikau made the call.

The dealer dropped the 2♦ on the river and Vaskaboinikau checked to Chen as he slid a stack of greens across the line to bet more than Vaskaboinikau's stack. Vaskaboinikau wasted no time tossing his cards into the muck as the dealer pushed the pot to Chen.

A board of 7♠3♠A♥J♠10♠ was out on the table and with 400,000 chips in the pot, Ben Heath checked it over to Isaac Haxton. It took a while for Haxton to make a decision but he eventually checked back.

"You got it," said Haxton upon seeing Heath's holding.

Nível 5 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Carlos Chadha opened 11,000 under the gun and Ren Lin jammed 102,500 from a few spots to his left as he asked politely, "Please don't snap-call."

The action folded back around to Chadha and he did indeed snap-call as both players tossed their hands face-up.

"Ah, snap-call and double me up. Okay." Lin said excitedly, and looked over at his neighbor, "High-five."

Ren Lin: J♣10♣ All in
Carlos Chadha: A♣K♠

Lin was behind but only momentarily as the J♦9♣3♥ flop hit felt, giving him a pair of jacks. The 9♠ turn and 9♦ river improved him to a full house as he collected his double.

"You gamble too much," Lin joked as he raked in the pot, "Call me with just ace-high."

Nível 5 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Brandon Steven opened to 12,000 from early position and David Peters three-bet to 33,000 from the cutoff. Steven opted to come back over the top for 107,000 with Peters calling to generate a large pot before the flop.

Peters checked following the 9♥6♠Q♠ flop then snapped off a shove from Steven to put himself at risk.

David Peters: A♠A♥ All in
Brandon Steven: K♠K♦

Peters found himself in excellent position to get the full double and managed to hold on the J♠ turn and A♣ river to get a much better start to the tournament on his second bullet.

Kirk Brown opened to 13,000 from early position and Zhiyuan Xu three-bet to 37,000 from middle position. The rest of the table folded.

They both saw a flop of 8♥Q♣2♠ and after Brown checked, Xu bet 50,500. Brown looked at his cards one last time before he tossed them into the muck.

Nível 5 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Carlos Chadha opened 11,000 in early position and Ren Lin three-bet to 30,000 from the hijack. The action quickly folded back to Chadha and he made the call.

The dealer spread a flop of 9♠7♥2♠ and Chadha checked to Lin who continued for 15,000. Chadha called.

When the 10♣ fell on the turn, Chadha checked once more before Lin fired two green chips across the line for a bet of 50,000. Chadha thought about it for a few moments and announced all-in.

Lin started to sing while thinking, and eventually turned to Leon Sturm beside him and asked him to slap his hand. Sturm obliged, and Lin asked for him to do it again but harder. He obliged again, and then Lin pushed his cards into the muck.

Moments after he doubled up, Stephen Chidwick defended from the big blind when Bruce Buffer opened from the hijack.

Both players checked the Q♠6♥J♥ flop, leading to the 7♠ turn where Chidwick moved all in for approximately 55,000. Buffer snap-called.

Stephen Chidwick: J♠8♦ All in
Bruce Buffer: Q♣Q♦

"Sorry bro," Buffer said when he discovered the 9♦ river. "There is no reason to apologize," Chidwick answered while leaving the tournament area.
