On a heads-up completed board of 8?5?4?2?4?, Clint Naito checked to his opponent, Ramzi Karam, who thought for a few moments before sliding out a bet of 20,300.
Naito then went into the tank to weigh his options and eventually decided to make the call but was then shown A?6? by Karam for the ace-high flush and Naito instantly mucked.
Left short, Naito then moved all in the very next hand with king-seve suited but ran into the pocket aces of Brian Schaffer and was sent to the rail.

Four players headed to a flop of 6?6?3? and the action checked to Rhonda DiMartino in middle position who bet 5,000. Jacqueline Burkhart called from the big blind as did Reiji Kono.
The turn was the J? and DiMartino fired out another bet of 15,000. Burkhart still called and Kono got out of the way. The 10? completed the board and Burkhart checked for the third time. DiMartino put in a bet of 30,000, enough to cover Burkhart's stack just shy of that.
Burkhart thought for over a minute before announcing a call. DiMartino turned over A?6? which had Burkhart out-kicked with 6?2?.
