Long Tran: A?A?Q?8?
John Holley: A?K?6?4?
Tran's two pair were in front before the 8? turn completed Holley's flush draw. The 3? river gave Holley the best low, scooping the pot and knocking out Tran in seventh place.

Dylan Weisman raised the pot in the small blind and called when Dzmitry Urbanovich moved all in from the big blind.
Dzmitry Urbanovich: A?K?Q?4?
Dylan Weisman: A?A?K?2?
Weisman was in a commanding position as the board was fanned out, with the 4?2?J?5?9? runout keeping his aces in front without a possible low.
Urbanovich's final table lasted just two hands, hitting the rail in eighth place.

Calen McNeil limped the button and Ryan Hoenig did so from the small blind, John Holley checked in the big blind.
Hoenig bet the A?5?4? flop for both opponents to call and the J? turn was checked to McNeil, who pushed all-in for 325,000. Hoenig folded and Holley asked for a count as McNeil started fist-bumping and declaring "I can't lose".
"You are a nice guy," Holley said after mulling it over for half a minute and he then called.
Calen McNeil: A?5?4?4?
John Holley: A?K?7?6?
Holley had top pair, plus straight and flush draws against the middle set of McNeil with the latter asking for a low card.
That wish was granted but the 3? river gave Holley a flush and low to send McNeil out in tenth place for $37,663.

Calen McNeil opened to 110,000 from under the gun and Ryan Hoenig called to his immediate left. Anton Smirnov then three-bet to 465,000, seeing a call from McNeil and a fold from Hoenig.
The flop of 5?J?8? brought a bet of 450,000 from Smirnov, leaving just 20,000 behind. McNeil called to the 5? turn and the rest of the chips found the middle.
Anton Smirnov: A?A?7?4?
Calen McNeil: A?K?3?2?
The J? river left Smirnov's two pair in front while leaving no low on the board, good for the double-up through McNeil.

Calen McNeil raised to 125,000 on the button and John Holley called out of the big blind. On the A?4?3? flop, Holley checked and called a bet worth 125,000 before they headed to the J? turn.
Holley checked again and McNeil bet 200,000. "Hit me one tiiiime," Holley said as he tossed in calling chips. The 7? came on the river and Holley checked once more. McNeil pushed all-in and earned a quick call.
"Nuts," McNeil declared and tabled the K?K?6?5? for the nut flush and third nut low. Holley had the 10?9?5?4? for an inferior flush and his low was no good as McNeil doubled for 710,000 total.
