Graeme Putt kicked off a limp-fest when he called in early position. William Thorson followed suit, as did the next two players. When the action came to Andy Bloch in the big blind, he reraised the pot -- 3,600 total. That only managed to chase out Putt as the other three players all called.
The flop came 
, and Bloch moved all in for 10,000. Thorson's raise to 20,500 isolated him against Bloch, and the two men went to a showdown with Bloch's tournament life hanging in the balance.

Joe Hachem is unusually quiet today, Robert Williamson III is his normal talkative self, and the two have played several pots with each other in the last orbit or so. We pick up another one as Grant Trask limped in under the gun. Hachem raised to 2,100 a few seats over, and Williamson three-bet to 7,800. Hachem was the lone caller this time, and they went heads-up to the flop.
It came 
, and both men checked through to the turn. Hachem bet the pot, 17,100, and Williamson took a long pause. He cut the calling chips out from his stack and eyed up the potential damage for a couple long minutes before deciding to fold and save his last 31,000 chips for another spot.
