Hand #59 - Kent Washington

Kent Washington opened shoved in early position for 161,000 and Arthur Vea called in the highjack seat. The rest of the players folded and the hands were tabled:

Washington: {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Vea {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

The {Q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} flop was troublesome for Washington.

“How about a ten for a sweat!” someone from the rail yelled.

The dealer obliged, planting the ultimate sweat card on the turn; the {10-Clubs}. Washington entered the river with a dangerous draw and hit when the {2-Clubs} fell.

Vea stormed off in anger and Washington clapped in elation. Washington now sits with about 340,000 chips and Vea has about 450,000 chips.

Hand #58 - Matt Hollinger

Matt Hollinger opened to 30,000 from the button and stole the blinds.

Hand #57 - David Villegas

David Villegas open shoved for 170,000 from middle position and collected the blinds and antes.

Hand #56 - Patrick Silvey

Patrick Silvey opened to 29,000 from middle position and was met with no contenders.

Hand #55 - Matt Hollinger

Matt Hollinger opened to 30,000 from under the gun and both Kent Washington (button) and Arthur Vea (big blind) called.

The flop fell {J-Spades}{6-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and Vea checked to Hollinger who continued with 40,000. Both Washington and Vea folded.

"I had the best hand," Hollinger said confidently while raking in the pot.

Hand #54 Hoai Pham

Action folded to Hoai Pham in the highjack who raised to 49,000. His opponents all folded and he pulled in the blinds and antes.

Hand #53 - Christopher Reider

It was Christopher Reider's turn to act under the gun and he chose to raise to 31,000. Everybody again folded and Reider tabled {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}.

Hand #52 - Kent Washington

Kent Washington shoved all-in for 145,000 from under the gun but received no action.

Hand #51 - Jeffrey Bennet

Jeffrey Bennett didn't take a passive approach this time around. He shoved all in from the button and won the pot.

Hand #50 - Hoai Pham

Jeffrey Bennett tried to see a cheap flop by calling in the small blind. Pham would have none of it and raised to 50,000, which led Bennett to fold.
