Zarro went from last to first, and with a loud cheer he raked in a huge triple up. Guerin shook his head, but he still doubled through Lakemeier who took the biggest hit.

David Peters raised to 1,200 from the button and was met by a three-bet to 3,850 from an opponent in the blinds. Peters, who had a stack of around 35,000, thought for a bit before moving all in and his opponent snap-called off for 20,000.

Peters:

After an opponent raised to 1,800 from the hijack seat, Tamara Volkoff reraised all in from the small blind to 15,325. Her opponent tanked for a little bit, then said, "I've seen you do this with a lot worse. Anyone else, I probably fold."

Volkoff, who has been playing fairly snug for most of the day, got a nice laugh out of her opponent's comments. The player eventually made the call with the , but that was dominated by the for Volkoff.
