Giorgiy Skhulukhiya raised to 475,000 in the small blind, and Chengyu Liao called in the big blind.
The A♣9♠4♦ flop checked through, but Skhulukhiya bet 325,000 on the Q♦ turn, which Liao called.
The K♦ completed the board, and Skhulukhiya fired 1,100,000 into the pot. Liao didn't take much time before flicking in a chip, signifying a call. It was bad news for Liao, though, who mucked his cards when Skhulukhiya tabled K♥K♣.

Giorgiy Skhulukhiya limped in from the small blind and faced a raise to 500,000 from Chengyu Liao in the big blind. Skhulukhiya responded with a limp-raise to 1,400,000, which Liao called.
The 8♣2♥A♦ flop checked through, but when Skhulukhiya checked a second time on the J♥ turn, Liao bet 500,000. That was enough to claim the pot, as Skhulukhiya returned his cards to the dealer.

Giorgiy Skhulukhiya opened to 300,000 and wasted no time in calling when Zorlu Er moved all in for 2,050,000 from the small blind.
Zorlu Er: A♠6♦
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: A♦Q♦
Any hope Er had quickly vanished when the dealer spread an 8♣Q♥Q♠ flop, giving Skhulukhiya trips.
The 10♠ confirmed Er's elimination before the 7♦ had even completed the board.
Level 30
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Zorlu Er opened to 350,000 on the button and was asked to risk the rest of his chips when Giorgiy Skhulukhiya moved all in from the big blind.

Chengyu Liao: J♦3♦
Gor Musinyan: A♦9♣

Some of the world’s best poker players will flock to Merit Royal Diamond for the Onyx High Roller Series, with more than $10 million in guarantees on the line across No-Limit Hold’em and Pot-Limit Omaha events.
With the series expected to attract elite and fun player fields, Onyx has also outlined a clear set of tournament conditions ahead of time. One of those is a restriction on face coverings. When players have live cards during a hand, sunglasses, masks, scarves, and any intentional covering of the face will not be permitted.
It is one of several tournament rules confirmed ahead of a packed nine-day schedule that runs from August 7-16.
