Iwamoto's Overpair Holds To Double Him Up
Japanese player Hiroya Iwamoto opened from middle-position and got called by Nattamon Kaweesorasak, Hyunmin Yang, and Xin Lim in the big-blind. The flop came down 7♣ 6♦ 4♥ and Iwamoto continued with a 3,000 bet. The Thai Kaweesorasak raised it up to 10,500 and all other players got out of the way. When action was back on Iwamoto, he counted his stack and then moved his 26,000 into the middle. The Thai player made the call.
Hiroya Iwamoto: 9♦ 9♠
Nattamon Kaweesorasak: 5♥ 5♦
Kaweesorasak had multiple outs to knock out Iwamoto, but lucky for him, the board ran out K♦ K♠ and he got a full double-up.

Kaweesorasak: Passive But Effective
Action folded to Rene Mar David on the button, who raised to 1,200. Big blind Nattamon Kaweesorasak defended. Both players were treated to a flop of J♣ T♠ Q♣
Both players checked to open a 7♣ turn.
The players then checked again to see the 4♣ river. Both checked down again.
Kaweesorasak showed 8♦ 7♦ with the pair of sevens apparently good enough to take down the pot and add a little to her wall.
