Championship Warm Up ($600)

With 26,000 in the middle spread out across board J♦ 8♥ Q♥ T♣ , Nguyen Thi Bao An fired a bet of 15,000, and faced a check jam from Francois Leclerc for 76,000 total.

Nguyen called off with the nut straight A♠ K♦ , and sent Leclerc's K♣ 9♥ towards the muck after river Q♠ offered no chops.

A button vs blind battle brewed a pot of 36,500 across board 6♣ 3♠ 2♣ 4♦ . Francois Leclerc led 16,000, and was called by Deepankur Gupta behind. Both checked down river 9♣ , revealing Leclerc's flush K♣ T♣ for the win.

Up against an early open, Francois Leclerc sent out a three bet to 1,600 and was met with a cold four bet to 3,600 from Amit Kaushik on the small blind. Leclerc responded with a raise to 8,600, to which Kaushik completed.

On flop K♣ 4♠ 5♦ , Kaushik was quick to give it up after Leclerc continued for 7,500.
