Prominent poker pro Jason Mercier is no longer involved in this tournament and we were there to catch his bust out. At the time, the board showed 
and Mercier was calling the last of his chips when Mark Burford fired out a bet.
Mercier held 
, his pair of queens well ahead of the 
that Burford held. However, that all changed on the river, as a 
gave Burford the two-pair and all of Mercier's chips.

Jeff Lisandro is now sitting behind just a few big bets and we were there to see him lose a bunch of his chips. It started when a player opened it up with a raise and Lisandro called in the big blind. The 
flop would see Lisandro call the bet of his opponent before a 
hit the turn. Lisandro again called a bet and a completed the board on the river. Lisandro wouldn't commit another bet here, deciding to fold as his opponent fired out a third bullet.

Mike Schneider was in late position holding 
when faced with the open of a player in middle position. He made the call and then the player on his left three-bet. The player who opened the pot, along with Schnieder, made the call and the 
flop was dealt.
On the flop, the middle-position bet, Schneider raised and the player to his left folded. The middle-position player called and a hit the turn. This time the player check-called a bet from Schneider and then checn-called again on the river. When Schneider turned over his flopped set, it was enough to take down the pot.
