Manalo Nichols starts us off with 1,000 from +1 and finds three customers to see 4ā„ 6ā„ J⦠. A 2,000 c-bet eliminates the big blind and we see the 3⣠. Checked to him, button Cuevillas Kiko slides 7,900 in the middle and only Nichols calls for the Aā that has both players check with Cuevillas Kiko's 7ā„ 6ā coming out on top against Manalo Nichols' 8ā„ 9ā„ missed draws.

Arima Shinnosuke starts the action with 500 from UTG, button Cuevillas Kiko makes it 1,500 and Kiril Gelev calls from the BB for another three-way to the flop 5℠J℠A⦠that gets checked around to the turn 7℠. Checked to him, Cuevillas Kiko slides 3,000 in the middle and after two calls we see the river 3⣠. Slow playing with no action behind has Arima bag the chips with 6℠8℠flush.
