Gallardo, Zhechev, Cada Take Down Pots Without a Showdown
Leo Soma opened action to 500,000 from under the gun. Action folded to Maximiliano Gallardo in the small blind, who made the call.
Soma fired another 500,000 on the 
flop. Gallardo raised him to 1,300,000. After a moment or two of thought, Soma made the laydown, giving the pot to Gallardo.
On the next hand, Ivan Zhechev opened the action to 500,000 from the cutoff. Soma, now the big blind, was the lone caller.
Zhechev fired for another 700,000 on the 
flop. After confirming the bet size, Soma made the call.
On the 
turn, Zhechev moved all in. Soma snap folded.
Next, Joe Cada moved all in preflop from middle position. Action folded to Thomas Schultz on the button. He thought for a moment, before making the laydown as well. As he did so, he made a reference to a conversation he and Cada had last night, which elicited a smile and chuckle from Cada. The players behind Schultz got out of the way as well, giving the pot, consisting of the blinds and ante only, to Cada.
