Hand 1

On the tail end of a big pot between Steve O'Dwyer in the small blind and Sosia Jiang from under the gun, O'Dwyer bet 26,000 and Jiang let the time run down, then used a time bank chip to get another 30 seconds. Ultimately, Jiang called and O'Dwyer turned over {A-Spades}{7-Clubs} for a bluff, which Jiang had beat with the {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

Hand 2

Timothy Adams raised to 2,500 and Ben Lai called in the small blind. The {9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop was checked through and Lai check-called a bet worth 4,500 on the {J-Diamonds} turn. On the {3-Clubs} river, the two of them checked and Lai's {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} won the pot.

Hand 3

O'Dwyer raised to 2,600 in the cutoff and Lai flat-called on the button. Oliver Price also called and the flop fell {K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}. It checked to O'Dwyer, who continued for 4,500 and just Lai tossed in the chips for the call. The {9-Diamonds} turn saw a second barrel worth 8,500 by the 2017 PokerStars Championship Macau Super High Roller champ and Lai folded.
