Four preflop limpers saw a flop of 8?7?5? and everyone checked around.

Action began postflop with the board showing 7?3?9?. Left short stacked, Matt Schievo jammed all in for 17,500. One opponent called as both players flipped over their hands.
Shievo: A?A?
Opponent: 9?8?
The board ran out with the 6?7? to give Shievo the double up to 52,000. It was a lucky break as one player reported that "everyone at the table was in the hand" and Aces still managed to hold.

Adam Cohen raised preflop to 3,000 under the gun. The player next to him called from early position, as did the button and Bin Weng in the big blind.
The flop came 9?2?Q? and Cohen bet 4,500. Only the player in early position called. Cohen fired another bet in the amount of 8,000 on the 2? flop. His opponent then called.
Cohen checked the 9? river. His opponent then bet enough to put him all in. Cohen put in his last 25,000 and was delighted to see that his A?Q? was good against his opponent's J?10?.

Opponent: A?K?
Wheeler: A?A?
The river came 7? to seal the hand for Wheeler. "A cooler," he said to his opponent.
"I should have known," was the response.
