Hand One:

The action was caught with two players looking at a board of 3?Q?5?4?. Dara O'Kearney, in the big blind, checked the action to Billy Baxter, who was under the gun. Baxter bet out 1,000 and O'Kearney check-raised to 5,100. Baxter moved all in for O'Kearney's effective stack of 29,300 and O'Kearney called.

Dara O'Kearney: A?2? All in
Billy Baxter: 4?4?

The action turn gave the Hall of Famer a set while O'Kearney held the wheel. The 9? river failed to pair the board and Baxter was left with dust.

Hand Two:

With Baxter short, the button and cutoff both limped in. Baxter moved all in for his last 700, from the small blind. Adam Croffut, in the big blind, moved all in for his starting stack of 30,000 and both the limpers folded.

Billy Baxter: J?9? All in
Adam Croffut: 10?6?

Baxter was ahead, but the 3?2?5?4?4? runout saw Croffut make a straight to send him to the rail. Croffut claimed Baxter's bounty for $2,006.
