The turn fell the A? and Lavotaro led out for 5,000. It was enough to make his opponents fold and grab the pot.

Melissa Schubert was in early position and facing a bet of 3,500 on a flop of 9?6?3?. She called to see the 6? turn and checked over to her opponent again.
He fired out another 7,000 from middle position and Schubert again called. The river came the 10? and Schubert checked once more. Her opponent slowed down and checked this time, turning over K?9? for two pair.
Schubert, though, had 10?10? for the rivered full house. "I didn't need it," she said as she raked in the pot.
Benjamin Underwood, who has made five final tables at the WSOP since 2019, is also seated at this table.

In a heads-up pot, the flop read 10?9?9? and Dan Heimiller led out for 1,100 into the pot of 1,900. Jesse Sylvia made the call.
The K? hit the turn, Heimiller snap-checked, and Sylvia checked back after a short pause.

A player in early position limped before Mike Marsico raised from late position. The player in the cutoff called as did the initial early position limper, leading to a K?J?7? flop.
The player in early position checked and Marsico threw out a bet of 1,200. The cutoff got out of the way but the early position player decided on a check-raise to 2,400.
Marsico called the min-raise three-bet and both players watched the dealer put the K? out on the turn.
Action checked through to the 8? river and action checked through once again, taking both players to showdown.
The early position player tabled the Q?7? before seeing Marsico show the Q?J? to take the pot down with a superior two pair.

Action was picked up on the turn in a hand between Weinman in the hijack and Rex Clinksclaes in the small blind.
The board read 5?10?8?2? and Clinkscales bet 1,500 and Weinman called.
The river came the 4? and Clinkscales sized up to 5,000 and Weinman scrunched his eyebrows as he pondered his decision. He tossed in the call and Clinkscales turned over A?7? for the nut flush. Weinman smiled as he showed J?8? for a worse flush and he joked "that could have gotten a lot worse."
