Yes, you've read it right, Joey Weissman has lost a showdown.
The money went in on a flop of 
with Gualtieri in the lead with 
and Weissman trailing with 
. The turn and river 
not changing much and Gualtieri was up to 786,000.
William Reynolds raised from early position and Jeremy Quehen moved all in from the button for about 600,000. Michael Gagliano in the small blind then moved all in for 1,400,000. Reynolds folded and cards were tabled.
Quehen: 
Gagliano: 
It was basically a coinflip with each player having a good chance of walking away a winner. The board came 
and Quehen was awarded a double up.

Jeremy Quehen has just handed Michael Gagliano's chips straight to Bradley Lipsey. Once again it was ace-king that failed the holder.
William Reynolds raised to 40,000 in first position before Quehen three-bet one seat to his left. The bet was 115,000 but when the action folded to Bradley Lipsey he moved all-in for 459,000. Reynolds folded, Quehen called and the exciteable French rail had another showdown to cheer about.

Flop: 
It took some time for both players to register what had happened. They both jerked instantly and then there was happiness for Lipsey and sadness for Quehen. The 
& completed the board and Quehen was right back where he started. Lipsey, meanwhile, moved up to 900,000.

Joe Gualtieri opened and made it 40,000. Joey Weissman was next to join and placed the call from the button. Stephen Reynolds in the big blind moved all in for around 520,000. Gualtieri took his time deciding if he wanted to call, but in the end he opted to fold.
Weissman immediately made it clear that he didn't think Reynolds was very strong. After a few more seconds went by Weissman made the call.
Weissman: 
Reynolds:
The board came 
and after an initial scare on the turn, Weissman was awarded the pot with a broadway straight.

The flop read 
and action was on William Reynolds who checked. Fernando Brito was the other player in the hand and he opted to move all in for around 450,000. Reynolds took a few seconds and made the call.
Reynolds:
Brito:
Reynolds held bottom two pair while Brito had middle set. Reynolds was basically done, but anything can happen. The 
on the turn sealed the deal and the on the river only rubbed it in. Brito had 25,000 less chips than Reynolds so Reynolds is in with barely one big blind.

A very dejected Williams Reynolds has just been told to get back in his chair. Reynolds thought he was out after that last hand against Brito, but instead he has 22,000 chips left. Hs duly takes his seat and when the action folds around to him he plonks them into the middle. A few folds later and Joshua Pedraza made an isolation raise to 55,000 but Bradley Lipsey also wanted to join in the fun from the big blind.
Flop: 
Pedraza bet 75,000 and Lipsey folded. So we had a showdown and when the cards were turned over, Reynolds bad luck had seemingly followed him into this hand.

The turn was the
