On the 8♠3♣Q♥ flop, Rigby checked and Yang bet 55,000. Rigby then moved all in to put Yang at risk, who had about 220,000 back.
Yang folded and the pot was pushed Rigby's way.

John Major raised to 27,000 in the cutoff, Cecil Toler flatted on the button, and Kyle Dishongh three-bet jammed for 162,000 in the big blind. Major then reshoved to isolate, forcing a fold from Toler.
Kyle Dishongh: A♠Q♦ 
John Major: K♥J♥
Dishongh stood up out of his seat when Major pulled ahead on the K♣5♣8♠ flop, and sat right back down when the A♠ fell on the turn. The 7♣ completed the board, and the pot was pushed Dishongh's way.
