Channing spent time on the leaderboard and was running well, but really hit his stride in a hand against Rodrigo Caprioli. Channing held

Rettenmaier spent most of the afternoon near the top of the leaderboard. He lost a key hand against Carl DiVeglia III where DiVeglia’s outran his pocket tens. He was reduced to about twelve big blinds and then chipped up through Henry Lu. His luck would not last though; he was eliminated after the last break of the evening.
Zach Clark won a giant hand three-way pot where his pocket queens flopped a set. He went from around average to one of the tournament leaders when he walked away from that hand with over 750,000.
