Hand #79: Emile Schiff got a walk.

Hand #80: Chris Klodnicki raised to 130,000 from under the gun, and Schuyler Thornton called from the hijack. The flop came {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, and both players checked to the {a-Hearts} on the turn. Klodnicki bet 100,000, and Thornton mucked.

Hand #81: Thornton raised to 140,000 from under the gun, and Klodnicki defended his big blind. The flop came {q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, and Klodnicki check-called a bet of 130,000 from Thornton. The turn was the {4-Hearts}. Klodnicki checked, Thornton bet 325,000, and Klodnicki folded.

Hand #82: Darren Elias moved all in for 600,000 from the hijack, and Thornton practically beat him into the pot, calling from the big blind. Elias was at risk with {k-Spades}{j-Spades}, up against Thornton's dominating {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}.

The flop came {k-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, and Elias took the lead with a pair of kings. The turn was the {a-Spades}, and the river was the {5-Hearts}, giving Elias a much-needed double.

Hand #83:, Schnetter led out for 200,000 and Klodnicki mucked.

Hand #84: Ben Zamani raised to 130,000 from early position, and Elias called in the big blind. Both players checked to the river with the board reading {10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{q-Spades}. Zamani finally made a bet of 275,000, and Elias folded.
