Omaha-8
Phil Ivey raised before Albert Hahn re-raised all in with both Jeff Lisandro and Ivey making the call.
The flop was 
and Lisandro checked, Ivey bet into the side pot and Lisandro called. Again it was check, bet, call on the 
turn before both live players checked down the 
river.
Lisandro showed 
and Ivey 
to split the side pot and Hahn couldn't better either as he mucked his hand. He departs in 7th place for a collect of $38,391.
Omaha-8
Kenneth Aldridge raised it up from the small blind and John Juanda called in the big blind. They saw a flop of 
and Aldridge fired a bet. Juanda called.
The turn was the 
and Aldridge checked, Juanda bet and Aldridge called. The on the river was checked down.
Juanda showed 
for a pair of aces which Aldridge conceded was good.
Jeff Lisandro then asked to see the hand of Aldridge, since he was meant to open his cards first. Juanda took exception to this, since he didn't want Aldridge to suddenly find a better hand or perhaps a low that he didn't see. It was all safe though as Aldridge revealed 
.

David Baker raised from the cutoff with Bill Chen calling in the small blind. Chen then realized Baker only had small change behind, so he bet in the dark with Baker calling off his last chips.

The board ran out 
and Baker doubled up to around 180,000.

John Juanda raised the cutoff and Phil Ivey called in the big blind.
The flop landed and Juanda's continuation bet was enough to take it down. Juanda has won four of the first five hold'em pots to move up to 920,000. Ivey is at 350,000.

The limits are big (and about to get bigger). Winning one or two pots can make you the chip leader. Losing one or two can bust you from the tournament. Albert Hahn has that danger firmly in sight after losing a pot John Juanda. Hahn raised from the cutoff, then called Juanda's small-blind re-raise. Each player put in one bet on a flop of 
. Hahn folded to Juanda's bet on the 
turn.
Hahn is in with the short stacks at 155,000. Juanda is up to 850,000 after winning the first three hold'em hands of the round.

We breezed through the stud split round without much action, bringing the game back to hold'em. Dave Baker opened from early position with a raise that was called only by big blind John Juanda. Juanda check-raised a flop of 
, with Baker calling to see the hit the turn. When Juanda bet that card, Baker folded his hand.
Despite an earlier double-up, Baker is now the shortest of the shorties, with 140,000. Juanda has about 700,000.

Phil Ivey fans are not going to be happy to hear that their god is now rocking the short stack after doubling up Dave Baker. Ivey double-bet an open pair of eights on fourth street and was called by Baker. Ivey kept firing on fifth street, with Baker then raising all in. Ivey called, needing to improve on the river with an eight or a five. He caught a ten to give Baker a sweat-less double-up.
Baker now has about 440,000. Ivey is down to 330,000.
