Andre Allen's epic climb-up continues as he found himself heads-up in a pot against David Greufe on a board of 6♠4♥5♠8♠.

Greufe bet 160,000 on the turn and Allen called. Greufe then sized up to 310,000 on the 7♥ river that put a straight on the board and Allen called. Greufe could only show J♦10♠, while Allen showed A♠9♣ for a straight.

Allen was down to just one big blind earlier in the day but is now chip-leading with 11 left.

Lucas Hughes opened on the button and Ashley Frank three-bet jammed in the big blind. Hughes mulled it over for a while before folding pocket queens face-up to the shock of the table.

"I was losing with it," Hughes said.

Daniel Hughes was all in against the bigger-stacked Ashley Frank a few seats to his right.

Daniel Hughes: A♦Q♥ All in
Ashley Frank: A♠Q♠

Hughes and Frank had the same hand, but the flop of J♠2♠2♦ had Frank freerolling Hughes with a flush draw. The 8♥ turn didn't change anything, but the 7♠ river gave Frank the flush to give Hughes his second beat of the hour as he fell in 14th place for $3,828.

"I get to go home and kick the dog," Hughes joked as he left.

Devin Arnone open-jammed a stack of 680,000 from the hijack and got action from Robert Michael in the small blind with a bigger stack.

Devin Arnone: 5♥5♦ All in
Robert Michael: A♦A♥

Arnone had run into aces and got little help from the 7♥2♦6♥ flop, but the 5♣ turn gave him a set before the 6♣ river improved him to fives full of sixes to double up and put a tough beat on Michael.

That's the second bad beat that pocket fives have delivered in the last five minutes.

A big hand took place at Table 15 where Vincent Meyer was all in for 1,100,000 against the bigger-stacked Daniel Hughes on a flop of 8♣5♦8♠.

Vincent Meyer: 5♣5♥ All in
Daniel Hughes: J♥J♦

"I've got a full house," Meyer said as he revealed fives full.

"I can hit an eight!" Hughes said before the 5♠ hit on the turn to give Meyer quads. "No I can't!"

Hughes was drawing dead heading to the 4♣ river and he secured a big double.

"Alright, I'll take 14th place," Hughes said grimly. "I'm not afraid to bust."

A massive pot took place between Derek Baxter in early position and Robert Michael on the button.

Baxter bet on the flop of 2♦K♣Q♦ and Michael raised all in for around 1,200,000. Baxter quickly called with a slightly smaller stack.

Derek Baxter: A♦J♦ All in
Robert Michael: K♥Q♥

Michael had two pair while Baxter had both flush and Broadway draws. The 4♠ turn didn't change anything, and the Q♠ river only improved Michael's hand as Baxter was eliminated in 16th place.
