Derrick Yamada came into today with the chip lead, and he surely had hopes of repeating his final table success from Lake Tahoe, where he finished runner up. However, nothing really went right for Yamada after the first break, and he was eliminated shortly after returning from dinner.

It's dinner time and color up time here at the Bicycle Casino. See you in 60 minutes.
We haven't seen Suzie Zhao play many hands today but the ones we have seen, she's had aces. The last hand we saw was no different. She had two players at risk this time.
Zhao:
Player 1: 
Player 2: 
The flop came out 
, and Zhao locked up a double knock out.
"You guys only post the hands when I have aces!" Zhao said to us after the hand.
Maybe so, but Zhao is now up around 370,000

With around 50,000 in the pot already, and the board reading 
Nam Le and David Randall were heads up.
Action went check, check on the turn and the dealer dealt out the 
river.
Nam took a second to check his cards and slowly bet out 23,000. David Randall tanked for a little bit before throwing in one of the new T25,000 chips to call.
"I have the ten," Le said before turning up his hand, .
"That's a straight flush," Randall said, laughing.
And Le raked in the pot with the immortal nuts.

We pointed out earlier in the day that Freddy Deeb was trying to repeat his performance from last year by registering on Day 2 and winning the tournament. Well Adam Weinraub is doing his best to do that himself. Weinraub brought in this morning with less then 15 big blinds to start, and he has worked that up to over 500,000!

Fresh off his win in Event #5 $585 No-Limit Hold’em, Nathan Bjerno is trying to get his second title already.
We just saw him play a big pot with one of the chip leaders, David Malka.
With the board reading 
Bjerno moved all in for right around 200,000 chips. Malka, who was on the button, went into the tank and ponder over his decision a bit before finally folding.
That hand brought Bjerno up to 335,000 and put him up on our top chip counts.
