Big Pot for Zartman

Karen Sarkisyan opened for 4,800 and received a call from Kyle Zartman on the button. When action reached Wilfried Harig in the big blind, he reraised to 20,400. Sarkisyan got out of the way while Zartman made the call. A series of raises and reraises resulted in Zartman being all in for 55,200 on the {3-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} flop, creating a pot worth around 160,000.

Zartman: {A-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {3-Hearts}
Wilfried: {K-Spades} {K-Clubs} {10-Spades} {9-Clubs}

Zartman had flopped two pair with the nut-flush draw, putting him out in front. There really wasn't any suspense after the turn delivered a diamond, completing Zartman's flush, and leaving Harig drawing dead.

Patterson Eliminates Saltiel

PLO

Robert Saltiel attempted to raise all in preflop but because he could only raise the size of the pot he was only able to put 7,000 of his 7,700 chips in. Tyler Patterson was next to act and re-raised. All the other players got out of the way and even though his tablemates jokinging told Saltiel he should fold, he opted to toss in his last 700 chips.

Saltiel: {7-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {3-Spades}
Patterson: {q-Spades} {q-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {8-Clubs}

Saltiel was going to need some help to catch up to Patterson's hand but the board ran out {q-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {k-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} giving Patterson a full house and sending Saltiel to the rail.

Patterson had around 109,000 after the hand.

Hachem Bullying

PLH

Joe Hachem was in the cutoff and raised to 5,500 after action had folded around to the 2005 World Series of Poker Main Event Champion. Quinn Do was in the small blind and made the call. Do then check-called a bet of 3,800 on the {Q-Diamonds} {10-Spades} {Q-Hearts} flop, leading to the {7-Diamonds} turn.

Again Do checked and Hachem bet, this time 12,000. Do tanked for about a minute before releasing his hand.

Baker Loses Some Dough

PLH

Adam Junglen was all in on the flop of {9-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {2-Hearts} with {Q-Hearts} {9-Hearts} against David Baker's {Q-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} . Invoking the natural spirit of the Outdraw God, Junglen began to get up on the {5-Spades} turn only to return to his seat on the {9-Spades} river when he made the full house.
