Lococo Triple Barrels
Level 4
: Blinds 300-500, 500 ante
Heads up to a flop of 3♥A♠10♥, the small blind checked to Alejandro Lococo in the big blind and Lococo fired for 2,000. His opponent called and together they saw the Q♣ on the turn.
The player in the small blind checked again and this time Lococo bet 6,000, receiving a call again.
The river was the 5♥ and with another check to him, the popular Argentinian player sized up to 20,000 which sent his opponent into the tank. After some time deliberating, he did eventually call and Lococo quickly rolled over the 8♥9♥ for the rivered flush which proved to be good as his opponent slid his cards in the much.

A Chance is Only a Chance
Level 3
: Blinds 200-400, 400 ante
Chance Kornuth, who had been nursing a short stack, could be heard rooting for a certain card as he said, "I have 80% of a royal! Let's go 80% of the royal!". He was all in, but not exactly at risk and his opponent, who was slightly annoyed said, "You're already winning..."
The players had clearly gotten the chips in already and the flop read A♦10♦9♦.
Chance Kornuth: Q♦J♦
Opponent: A♥K♣
The 10♠ wasn't the turn that Kornuth wished for and Kornuth said, "I don't care about you losing the hand, I care about making a royal!" but he was unable to add insult to injury when the 7♣ completed the board.
Kornuth's flopped flush held, but he was still left with a short stack despite the double. This goes to show, no matter how many titles are won, or how many hands someone plays - everyone loves to sweat a royal flush draw.
