A player under the gun et 1,300 on a flop of 5♥K♥J♥ and was called by both blinds, including Alex Eulern in the big blind.
All three players checked the 5♠ turn and the small blind then led out for 3,100 on the K♦ river. Eulern then raised to 15,000 and the under-the-gun player folded, but the small blind stuck around and called.
Eulern then showed 5♣5♦ for quads and his opponent mucked.
Asif Warris just doubled up in a fortunate cooler and shared the details.
According to Warris, a player opened to 800 before the button three-bet to 3,000. Warris four-bet to 6,400 in the big blind and the button called.
Warris continued for 5,500 on the Q♣3♣9♦ flop and the button called. He then bet another 5,500 on the 6♣ turn and the button this time raised to 18,000.
Warris tanked for a moment before moving all in for 45,000 and his opponent snap-called with 8♣7♣ for a flush, but Warris had A♣K♣ for the nut flush as the A♦ fell on the river to earn him the double up.
A player in the hijack bet 1,500 on a flop of 9♥6♣5♠ and the button called, as did Alessandro Schellrce in early position.
Action checked to the button on the 3♣ turn and he bet 2,700. Only Schellerce called to see the 7♣ river.
He checked again, but this time the button checked back as Schellerce showed A♣5♣ for a rivered flush. His opponent mucked 7♠4♠ as Schellerce took the pot.
A player in middle position raised to 1,500 and Manuel Puente called in the hijack. Fernando Banda also called in the small blind before the big blind three-bet to 3,500.
Action folded to Puente who moved all in for 28,500. Banda quickly folded, but the big blind called to put Puente at risk.
Manuel Puente: A♠K♥
Opponent: 10♦10♥
Puente remained behind and at risk as the flop came Q♦2♦2♥, but he caught the A♥ on the turn to make two pair. The river was the 7♦ and Puente doubled up.
Josh Manley three-bet to 4,500 in the cutoff and Soufiane Saada called under the gun. A middle-position player then four-bet to 16,700 and Manley stuck in his last 18,500. Both Saada and the middle-position player called.
The flop came 9♥A♦6♦ and the middle-position player bet 16,000. Saada took nearly five minutes until the clock was called. He eventually committed the chips and saw the 10♠ fall on the turn.
The middle-position player then moved all in for 47,000 and Saada called. Manley showed Q♥Q♦, the middle-position player had A♥K♦, but Saada had pulled in front with 10♣9♣ for two pair.
The river was the 2♣ and Saada scooped the pot to send both Manley and the middle-position player to the rail.
Inaki Angulo, a popular soccer YouTuber in Spain with 600,000 subscribers, went three-handed to a flop of A♠10♣8♥ with around 8,000 already in the pot. Angulo then bet 5,100 from early position and the big blind called, as did another opponent under the gun.
All three players checked the 10♥ turn. The river was the Q♣ and Angulo bet 25,000. The big blind quickly folded, but the early-position player took a minute before flashing the A♥ and tossing it into the muck.
Angulo showed 8♣8♦ for a set as he took down the pot.
Nearly 20,000 was in the pot as Gaspare Triolo and Jon San Juan went heads-up on a board of 6♣9♦8♣J♠. Triolo then got his last 40,000 in the middle from the button and San Juan put him at risk in the hijack.
San Juan showed J♥J♦ for a turned set, while Triolo had Q♠Q♦. San Juan was poised to take the massive pot until the 10♠ arrived on the river, improving Triolo to a straight and earning him a double up.
