Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Michael Myers opened the action from middle position with a raise, and once it folded to a player on the button, she three-bet to 6,000. The player on the small blind called, before Myers four-bet 18,300. The player on the button then five-bet all in for her stack of 33,400. The small blind folded and Myers made the call, putting his opponent at risk.
Button: A?Q? 
Michael Myers: K?K?
Myers was poised for a knockout, and the 7?7?2? kept him well in front. However, the 8? on the turn gave his opponent a flush draw to go along with an ace as outs. But the river brought the 4? and the pocket kings of Myers remained best, giving him the pot and eliminating his opponent.

Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Action was picked up on the flop with LaShun Wallace all in for 33,500 and Steven McKuin putting him at risk. The board showed 4?K?9? and roughly 6,900 in the pot before the flop.
LaShun Wallace: A?10?
Steven McKuin: K?9?
McKuin flopped best with his top two pair but would need to fade Wallace's flush draw to score a knockout. McKuin was still in front after the 10? on the turn, but it added five more outs for Wallace. Those outs werent needed though, as the river brought the 6? to give Wallace the flush, and the double up.

Action folded to John Swift in the cutoff, and he raised to 1,000. Then Abid Buttar on the button three-bet to 3,000, before Jefferson Morrill four-bet all in for his stack of 33,800. Swift then moved all in as well for his stack 23,500, which got Buttar to fold, leaving the players heads up with Swift at risk.
John Swift: A?K?
Jefferson Morrill: A?K?
It was an anticlimactic showdown with both players holding ace-king. But the 4?Q?10? flop gave Swift the freeroll with his backdoor flush draw. But the J? ended the flush hopes as both players made a Broadway straight, and the K? on the river completed the board, as the players chopped the pot.
