Hand #28 -

John Conkright has the button in Seat 2. Rep Porter open-raises for 38,000 from the small blind. Michiel Brummelhuis immediately moves all in for 188,000 with {A-Clubs} {4-Hearts}, and Porter calls just as quickly with {A-Spades} {J-Diamonds}.

The flop comes {6-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {Q-Hearts} and just like that, Brummelhuis goes from dominated to dominating. The turn {2-Hearts} is no help for Porter, but he spikes the {J-Spades} on the river to knock out Brummelhuis. Brummelhuis may be leaving the Milwaukee's Best Light No-Limit Lounge, but he is now $53,313 richer.

Hand #31 - Nathan Templeton

Anatoly Shilyuk has the button in seat 5 and he raises to 35,000. The small blind, Nathan Templeton, reraises to 95,000. Action folds back around to Shilyuk and he asks for a count on Templeton's remaining chips. After inaudible chatter between the two, Shilyuk finally passes and Nathan Templeton wins the pot.

Hand #34 - Rep Porter

John Conkright has the button in Seat 2. Everyone folds to Rep Porter in the small blind, who raises to 36,000. Anatoly Shilyuk makes the call from the big blind.

The flop is {Q-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}. Porter checks as first to act, and Shilyuk checks behind. The {5-Spades} hits the turn. Porter now bets 46,000. Shilyuk deliberates briefly before calling. On a river of {Q-Diamonds}, Porter bets 68,000. Shilyuk goes into the tank. He cuts 68,000 off of his stack and counts how much he would have left if he loses this pot. He glances at Porter, who is eyeing him suspiciously. Finally, after two minutes, Shilyuk folds.
